A NEAR tragedy has led
to an amazing new devel-
opment in sleep technol-
ogy. When Georgia Miles
was recovering from a
serious accident, her father
Alexander looked around
everywhere for a pillow that
would keep her comfortable
throughout the night.
After examining countless
types, Alex, a furniture and
domestic product designer,
decided to create his own.
He made a breakthrough
when he realised that all
pillows spread out and
flatten down as the weight

An easy guide to smartphones


S


MARTPHONES
— modern mobile
phones that can
do everything from
browsing the web to making
video calls, taking pictures
and sending texts — are
amazing things.
You can use them almost
anywhere, whether on the
sofa or travelling on a train.
But it’s not always obvious
how to make them do what
you want, or you might not
be aware of the things your
phone can do for you.
And friends aren’t often
very good at explaining!
Meanwhile, manuals tend
to be either too brief or
hidden away as an ebook
on the device itself.
That’s where a new book,
in two versions, comes in

— iPhones One Step At A
Time and Android Phones
One Step At A Time.
This guide is proving
hugely popular with all
sorts of people who have
a smartphone, but aren’t
expert at using it. Whether
you are frustrated with

the very basics, or wish you
knew how to do some of the
slightly fancier things, it might
be just what you need.
It explains everything in
plain English, without jargon,
and has lots of pictures that
show exactly what to do —
where to tap the screen, and

so on. The company behind
the guide has already
published books about
computers and tablets that
have helped thousands of
people. But it actually started
much smaller.
Author Tim Wakeling
wrote some notes to help
his mum and dad with their
PC and realised that other
people might find them
useful, too.
Several thousand happy
people later, he decided
to bring out this book on
smartphones as well.
If you have ever been frus-
trated with your phone, it’s
worth finding out more by
ordering a free information
pack explaining what’s
covered in the books, who
they are suitable for and
how to get hold of one.

Cradled for a comfier sleep


SUMMER is here and a leading
meals delivery service has
cooked up lots of light, delicious
meals to enjoy, including creamy
pasta dishes, mini pizza (above)
and low-sugar desserts.
These tasty, nutritious frozen
dishes are quick and easy to
enjoy at home.
Most just need preparing in the
microwave or oven.
All dishes are chosen for their
quality and taste, and then flash
frozen to lock in goodness and
flavour. With a choice of more
than 400 meals, there really is
something for everyone, no
matter what their appetite, dietary
needs or preferences.
Whether it’s breakfast, lunch or
dinner, nothing quite lifts the
spirits like a tasty, nutritious meal
on the table.
But many of us both need and
want to avoid certain foods, for

health reasons. So the service
offers a wide range of meals
suitable for specialist diets, with
gluten free, low sugar, pureed
and fork mashable ranges
available. There are also more
than 80 well-known recipes in
smaller portions, which is great if
you have a reduced appetite.
You do not need to leave home
to buy the meals, as they are
delivered to your door — and can
even be put straight in the freezer
for you.
A wide range of groceries can
also be delivered, along with
your frozen meals and desserts.
It will typically be the same driver
each week, and a friendly team
is always ready at the end of the
phone to help with your orders
or queries.
So if you fancy some easy
mealtimes this summer, a leading
delivery service can help you.

of the head rests on them.
This flattening progresses
through the night, leaving
the head and neck poorly
supported — and sleep
interrupted.
It is why many people
find themselves half awake

and ‘pillow-punching’ in the
middle of the night, trying to
get comfortable.
The innovative model that
Alex designed has internal
ties that hold the filling in
place, and pull the pillow in
and up to cradle the head
and neck. This provides
extra comfort and support
that lasts through the night
and ensures that you get
the most benefit from an
undisturbed sleep.
The pillow has already
transformed the lives of
thousands of people. So if you
have spent a lifetime looking

for the perfect pillow, your
search may well be over!
Orthopaedic consultant
Dr Deane Halfpenny says:
‘From the first night I tried
it, there was less pain at
night and less stiffness in
the morning.
‘I fully endorse this pillow
as it is unique in its ability to
maintain support throughout
the night.’
And customer Ann
Morris says: ‘I’ve had pain-
racked nights for years,
but with this unbelievably
effective pillow I can at last
sleep through.’
