The Gleneagles Hotel
There are few places in Britain that blend old-school elegance with such effortless warmth as Gleneagles. Tucked into the rolling hills of Perthshire, this grande dame of Scottish hospitality has been welcoming guests since 1924 — from royals and golfers to weary Londoners in search of crisp air (and yes, the air really does taste different) and a slower pace. A century on, it remains a unique destination: part country playground, part five-star sanctuary and part time machine to a gentler, more gracious era.

The inconvenient truth about the decline of London's public loos
How very inconvenient — images have emerged of Peter Mandelson appearing to relieve himself against a wall after visiting George Osborne's house in Notting Hill. If only there had been a public facility nearby, he would have been saved the embarrassment. The irony is that he made a great exhibition of himself thanks to the absence of an invention first showcased at the Great Exhibition of 1851. That Victorian extravaganza was home to many firsts: the first major display of photography; the first demonstration of mechanical cooling (foreshadowing modern fridges); and the world’s first large-scale prefabricated building. It was also the first time that the public could use flushing lavatories — more than 800,000 people paid a penny for the experience, hence the phrase. The man responsible was George Jennings, an engineer and master plumber.

Labour plotters could 'try to oust Starmer after the Budget'
“Letting it be known that the Prime Minister would fight any challenge to his leadership rather than going quietly may well have been designed to shore up Sir Keir Starmer’s position, by reminding Labour MPs of the costs — political and economic — of opening up that can of worms,\" writes Henry Zeffman.
