THE HISTORY OF LIDL IN IRELAND LIDL first opened in Germany in 1973. Back then, it employed just three people, stocking 500 product lines. The first Irish store, located just off Molesworth Street in Dublin, was opened in 1999. This was Lidl's first entry into the Irish grocery market. Then, Lidl opened more stores in 2000, in Limerick, Letterkenny, Mullingar, Athlone, Cavan, Ballinasloe and Portlaoise. Now, the retailer has over 180 stores and three distribution centres, employing over 6,000 people. They work with a network of more than 260 Irish suppliers from the communities they operate in.

Barbecue-friendly wines that won't break the bank

Today's wines have been chosen as much for their excellent value as for their food-friendly style. On a long and lazy day in good company when the chats are flowing and the night is still drawing in slowly, who wants to be stressing about the cost of opening another bottle? If you're expecting a crowd, a smart way to cut costs is with bag-in-boxes or pouches, especially given the greatly improved quality of the wines available in these alternative packaging formats. The boxes typically start at two and a quarter litres, going up to 10 litres, and the wine inside keeps well for up to four to six weeks should it last that long. They are an eco-friendly alternative to glass bottles, which — being energy-demanding to produce, to transport and to recycle — are typically the greatest single contributing factor in your wine's related carbon emissions. This alternative choice is better for your pocket as well as for the planet. It's interesting to compare the cost of one of today's red wines, Altano Rewilding, which I previously recommended as a bag-in-box from O'Briens. The wine is a collaboration between Symington winery and Rewilding Portugal, and each sale supports the rewilding of 120,000 hectares in northern Portugal. O'Briens recently introduced the same wine by the bottle, which is solid value at its current sale price of €13.56; but at €32.36, the two-and-a-quarter-litre box is equivalent to three bottles at €10.80 each. My wine of the week — a charming white wine from a leading Portuguese winemaker, João Portugal Ramos — is even more affordable: a three-litre bag-in-box that is equivalent to four bottles at €9.68 each. For something more mobile-friendly, wine pouches are very handy for parties, festivals and camping trips. I previously recommended the sassy Un'Ombra Refosco Red (Molloy's, €26.99 for one and a half litres); it does a decent Sauvignon Blanc at the same price. Two of today's wines are limited-edition specials offering exceptional value from reputable wineries: Wirra Wirra in South Australia from Lidl and Ben Marco in Mendoza from Dunnes Stores. Also in Lidl and worth a spin is Breath of Paradise (€11.99), a fun and slightly cheeky take on a certain market-leading Provençal rosé, with its identical font type and distinctive silvery wings, not to mention candied peach and honeydew melon character. Wines of the week Ramos Elegant White 2023, Alentejo, Portugal, 12pc, €38.70 (3l) Portugal is a sure bet for value, as this three-litre bag-in-box proves. Working out at four bottles for €9.68 each, this is a cracking option for a barbecue, summer party or a holiday-home fridge. Respected winemaker João Portugal Ramos blends four local grapes (Arinto, Fernão Pires, Talia, Trincadeira) for an intriguing wine with tropical fruit aromas and lively minerality and grapefruit peel notes on the fresh palate. A lovely pairing for olives, nuts and other nibbles, and a versatile food match too. O'Briens Wine; Altano Rewilding Edition 2022, Douro, Portugal, 13pc, €13.56 Deliciously crunchy with juicy freshness making a perfect red pairing for fattier fare like lamb koftas, burgers and sausages, with appealing peppery, herbal notes meeting red plum and pomegranate. Also available in a bag-in-box (€32.36 for 2.25-litre box), which equates to three bottles at €10.80 each. O'Briens Wine; Learn more Wirra Wirra Scrubby Rise Chardonnay 2022, Adelaide Hills, South Australia, 12.5pc, €9.99 This steal of an unoaked Chardonnay (while stocks last) from reputable Wirra Wirra winery is bright, and layered citrus aromas of lemon curd, fingerlime and lemon grass lead to a crisp, linear pithiness on the nicely weighted palate. Seafood heaven. Lidl Ben Marco Plata Malbec, Uco Valley, Chile, 12pc, €12 (until July 29) A great-value introduction to the wines of influential winemaker Susana Balbo, this high-altitude limited-edition Malbec blended with a little Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc is rich and punchy with black cherry and toasted spice, good acidity and ripe tannins. Think sausages, burgers and spicy marinades. Dunnes Stores Domaine Cailhol Gautran Cantus Vitis 2023, Minervois, France, 14.5pc, €15 A nuanced blend of Carignan, Grenache and Syrah to please all palates at a family barbecue. Plush but balanced by juicy acidity, and aged in stainless steel rather than oak to keep it fruit forward, with savoury and herbal notes bringing complexity to raspberry and loganberry fruits.

I love wearing super high heels & showing off my extra long legs – jaws hit the floor when people find out my age

A WOMAN has left the people stunned after showing off her mega long legs in sky-high heels. Gina Drewalowski, who is on a mission to 'spread positivity' and reveal that ageing is 'our super power', recently left people gobsmacked after trotting around in super high stilettos. 2 The mother-of-two, from Germany, left people stunned after trotting around in mega heels Credit: tiktok/@ginadrewalowski 2 The monster heals measured at 12 inches, the German fashionista claimed in the video Credit: tiktok/@ginadrewalowski Posting on social media, the content creator, who has over 20,000 followers on TikTok, could be seen modelling bright red heels - which allegedly measured at 12 inches. The blonde beauty, who posts under the username @ Gina, hailing from Germany, had completed the look with a red lippy to match the jaw-dropping heels. ''Can I still walk in them? Or am I too old for this?'' the fashionista wondered in the caption of read more on fashion In ''I'm 59 and I still wear the highest heels,'' she wrote. But while Gina may have felt her best and most confident rocking the mega heels, not everyone was a fan of the look. Close to 200 people flooded to comments - where it was a mixed bag of responses. Most read in Fabulous One critic thought: ''Gal if you need a wall to lean on. The shoe's ain't for you. Regardless of age.'' Someone else chimed in: ''Might as well scream: GIVE ME I'm 54 & show off my tum & legs - trolls call me embarrassing & say I should be arrested, but I'm not a sexless granny A third troll asked: ''you know how much a hip replacement costs?'' '' 'I'm 59 and still behave like a teenager seeking strangers validation on the Internet','' wrote another harsh viewer. Despite the brutal comments, the mother-of-two isn't fazed by what the critics think - and and cold showers . How to reverse ageing in just 2 weeks, according to royal go-to nutritionist LONDON -based Gabriela Peacock, who has helped the likes of Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie prepare for their weddings. She told Fabulous: 'The science is evident that we all have the power to make simple life changing alterations to better our future selves - no matter what genetic hand we might have been dealt with. 'The reality is, we all sometimes indulge in unhealthy eating habits like processed foods, smoking cigarettes, drinking too much alcohol, inhaling city pollutants, and even drinking water from plastic bottles – none of this is good for us. 'All this does is promote the ageing process, but we all have the potential to change this.' It may be hard, but try to keep away from sugary carbohydrates, because they feed chronic inflammation, which is one of the worst enemies of reversing ageing. Now only will you end up putting on weight if you consume them regularly, but your energy and hormonal levels will be affected and this will influence how you look and feel. Whatever your age or state of health, it's never too late to reverse how quickly you are ageing and embrace the energy and vigour of a younger you. Antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C, and E, are essential in neutralising free radicals—the culprits behind premature ageing. Integrating a spectrum of colourful fruits and vegetables into your diet provides a potent source of antioxidants. Omega-3 fatty acids, abundant in fatty fish like salmon and flaxseeds, are vital for maintaining skin elasticity and hydration. Omega-3s act as nourishment for your skin, locking in moisture and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen, a structural protein dwindling with age, can be replenished through collagen-rich foods like bone broth and lean protein sources. Dry brushing is a skincare technique that involves using a brush with stiff bristles to exfoliate dry skin, typically before showering or bathing. It is often seen as a way to stimulate circulation, promote lymphatic drainage, and improve overall skin health and texture. Meanwhile, cold showers are said to potentially contribute to a more youthful appearance by tightening pores and reducing puffiness. Not only this, but turning the heat down on your daily wash can also stimulate collagen production, which can help improve skin elasticity and The The influencer, who loves posing in swimwear online, advised users to 'thank me later' as she proudly showed off her eye-popping pins and stressed: 'Don't skip your Gina, who won't let age hold her back, then claimed: 'They show age too.' As a result, she advised: 'Save this and try it for two weeks – game changer!'
