Tiki Garden Parasol
£41.30 (was £59)
The summer months are all about relaxing and soaking up the sun when you can, and building the ultimate garden set-up could be the answer to the perfect weekend.
If you're not jetting off anytime soon, never fear as the hot weather keeps returning, and you could turn your outdoor space into a tropical paradise for less than you think.
Dunelm's Tiki Garden Parasol has a straw-effect, which gives it the appearance of an umbrella you might find somewhere hot and sunny.
If you're fed up of plain garden furniture and are looking for something a bit different to add to your space, the parasol could be a great choice.
The parasol is 224cm tall, and the canopy covers 212cm, so you could place it next to a sun lounger or beside your garden dining table for some shade.
There's a tilt mechanism, which allows you to adjust the placement of the shade, so you can change it when the sun moves during the day.
It's worth keeping in mind that the parasol doesn't include a base or weights, so you will need to buy one separately.
The parasol is one of thousands of items reduced in the Dunelm clearance offer, which cuts up to 75% off home and garden products.
Shoppers have been leaving their reviews on the Dunelm parasol, with many having bought it this summer to add some shade to their gardens.
One pleased buyer said: ''I've looked at many of these umbrellas, this is by far the best.''
''Bought it for my garden bar.''
Another added: ''It's absolutely gorgeous, it's stunning - really happy with it and the price is well worth it, glad I purchased.''
While a third commented: ''It's lightweight and gives a holiday vibe to the garden.''
''This parasol not only looks good, but is a great shade provider in the summer.''

What your favorite way of eating eggs says about you, according to a study
Your daily breakfast choice might reveal more about yourself than you imagine. According to a study commissioned by the British Egg Industry Council, your style of eggs can predict everything from your personality to your fashion sense. Over 1,000 adults took a detailed survey about their lifestyle, family life, and, how they cook their eggs. The results revealed that childless adults typically prefer a more leisurely breakfast of scrambled eggs, while those with four or more kids opt for fast fried eggs. The choice might even be linked to your profession - with manual workers, casual laborers, and the unemployed generally choosing fried eggs. Poached eggs Using a mathematical technique called the Generalized Linear Regression Model, the researchers used their survey results to predict character and lifestyle traits based on egg choices. This revealed that poached eggs are generally the favorite choice of fathers with two children. Poached egg lovers are also likely to come from small families themselves, with no more than one older brother or sister. In terms of their personality, fans of poached eggs tend to be the life of the party -you are likely to be socially outgoing and extroverted. You may also have a tendency to wear flashy 'decorative clothing' and have a passion for upbeat music. After all that, it might not come as a surprise to learn that poached egg lovers are also happier than most people on average. Boiled eggs Those who listed boiled eggs as their preferred choice had a greater tendency to be disorganized, careless, and impulsive. This group also scored lower for conscientiousness, which is the psychological propensity to be responsible, organized, hardworking, and goal-oriented. Perhaps related to these points, boiled egg lovers are also more likely to be women and run a greater risk of getting divorced at some point in their lives. Fried eggs According to the survey, fried egg lovers are employed in some form of skilled labor. They are also likely to come from big families, with multiple brothers and sisters and at least four children of their own. In stark contrast to those who like their eggs boiled, fried egg enjoyers are free-spirited individuals. If you always take your eggs sunny-side up, you are probably open to new experiences, are creative, curious, and imaginative. You may also have a better than normal ability to vividly recall your dreams in the morning. Additionally, those who prefer fried eggs are better informed about sex, have a wider array of sexual experiences, and stronger sex drives than average. Scrambled eggs Based on this data, scrambled eggs are the go-to choice for the young professional. If scrambled eggs are top of your breakfast menu, you're probably childless, between the ages of 29 and 39, and likely to live in a city. You are also more likely to be in a managerial or senior-level job and to own your home. Psychologically, scrambled egg fans tend to score lower for neuroticism. That means they experience anger, sadness, or anxiety less frequently and less intensely than other people. However, people in this group are also more guarded and less open to other people. Omelettes If you somehow find time to make yourself an omelette in the morning, then you probably have your life together to an impressive degree. And the data from this study agrees, as people who selected omelette as their favorite were more reliable, well-organized, and self-disciplined. Unsurprisingly, these paragons of virtue are also more likely to have tidy homes. To make things even better, omelette eaters tend to have longer life expectancies, lower rates of divorce and are more likely to be a professional.

David Beckham is every inch the doting dad as he joins daughter Harper and chic wife Victoria for their annual summer break on £16M yacht in St Tropez - with son Brooklyn noticeably absent amid family feud
David Beckham and his wife Victoria have brushed off the furore surrounding their feud with son Brooklyn, as they enjoyed their annual summer yacht getaway. The family has been thrown into turmoil in recent months, amid claims Brooklyn has become increasingly estranged from his famous parents after failing to attend any of his father David's 50th birthday celebrations in May. Soaking up the sunshine on their £16 million vessel, David and Victoria were seen making the most of the picturesque French weather off the coast of St Tropez. Every the doting dad, David embraced his daughter Harper, 14, as they boarded a speedboat to take them to the shore. While her second son Romeo enjoyed jet ski ride in the sunshine, Victoria opted for a spot of downtime on the yacht, before changing into a chic yellow satin dress and a matching hat for the outing. The couple traded in their £5million yacht for the much bigger vessel last year, and had been pictured on it sailing around Miami. The impressive looking vessel, understood to be worth £16million, was a significant upgrade on the comparatively modest 100-foot yacht reportedly purchased by Beckham in 2022. The football legend was said to have 'treated himself' to his original vessel in 2022 after being inspired by his maritime jaunts with close friends Sir Elton John and David Furnish - who often holiday at sea. A source told The Sun at the time: 'David had a look around some yachts in the summer, and decided to treat himself. He helped design the boat himself, and has been incredibly hands-on with everything. 'It's not an oligarch-style super-yacht, but it's still pretty plush by anyone's standards. He was inspired after holidaying with Elton and David on their boat - and loves life on the water. 'There will be an area for the kids to snorkel, and the boat will be a brilliant base for the whole Beckham clan to have magical holidays abroad.' And while his famous parents were little more than a few hours flight away, Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz shared loved-up Instagram snaps back in the UK. The husband and wife have jetted into the country for the weekend and appear to be enjoying downtime away from the city. David and Victoria have reportedly become resigned to the fact that they have become estranged from their beloved son after he failed to attend any of the football ace's 50th birthday celebrations last month. Every the doting dad, David embraced his daughter Harper, 14, as they boarded a speedboat to take them to the shore David put on a sweet display with his eldest daughter Harper, who toted her belongings in a Goyard Saint Louis bag The couple traded in their £5million yacht for the much bigger vessel last year, and had been pictured on it sailing around Miami The football legend was said to have 'treated himself' to his original vessel in 2022 after being inspired by his maritime jaunts with close friends Sir Elton John and David Furnish He also didn't wish either his mum Victoria or dad David a happy birthday on social media - an unusual move for the Beckhams, who are known for their loving posts. This is in stark contrast to a post Brooklyn shared last week for his father-in-law and wrote on a picture of himself and Nicola with the billionaire: 'Happy birthday Nelson x We love you.' It was previously revealed that Brooklyn and Nicola's Instagram accounts no longer follow his younger brothers Cruz and Romeo in the latest family drama. However, Brooklyn's friends told MailOnline on Friday that Cruz and Romeo have actually blocked them on the social media platform. This would make sense given that Brooklyn and Nicola are still following Victoria and David. Cruz and Romeo were still following Brooklyn and Nicola earlier this month but appeared to take action after Brooklyn posted a birthday tribute to sister Harper, sharing a family photo without them in it – which Nicola reposted. There was much speculation whether Brooklyn would reach out to Harper on her 14th birthday, but despite him doing so, it seems all is not well in the camp. Brooklyn's birthday tribute to Harper marked his first public interaction with his family since he paid tribute to his grandmother Sandra on June 26, despite remaining silent and shunning his father's 50th birthday earlier that same month. Sources close to the family have told MailOnline of their fears that Brooklyn and his wife Nicola have also distanced themselves from Harper after they failed to visit her when they flew into London in May to film an advert for French-Italian clothing brand Moncler just over a mile from the family home in Holland Park. David and Victoria had no idea whether Brooklyn, who Harper has idolised since she was a little girl, would message her privately or publicly on Instagram because they have no communication with him. It comes as tensions have continued to bubble in the past few weeks with a series of digs and jibes from camp Nicola and Brooklyn. Aspiring chef Brooklyn shared a cooking video accompanied by a song which referred to not feeling like he has the confidence to speak up and finally feeling empowered - in a seemingly subtle but defiant message. And on the same day Nicola made a bizarre nod to father-in-law David as she sported a replica pair of the iconic football shorts he wore for his England debut in the 90s while out on her family's superyacht. She was also keen to flaunt her close family bonds during the holiday to St Tropez as she shared gushing Instagram posts about her brothers on Monday. Nicola continued to publicly praise and share admiration for her billionaire family on social media amid her husband's family feud. The actress took to Instagram to share a series of photographs in which she gushed over her billionaire father Nelson Peltz and joked that her Labubu dolls were her family. That came after she and Brooklyn shared photographs of themselves on social media attending Nelson's family birthday celebrations - painfully echoing the very similar celebrations they chose to snub for David's own recent birthday. And amid the escalating feud last week Romeo stepped in as he shared a very pointed statement about 'appreciating people that love you' and insisted 'life was too short' to not tell people you care about them. While Nicola revels in her happy life with her family, Brooklyn risks ruining his 'close bond' with sister Harper by overshadowing her birthday. Friends of the Beckhams predicted that it will be a 'huge moment' in the feud, which escalated when the couple didn't attend any of David's 50th celebrations which took place between the end of March and the beginning of May. One source said: 'Brooklyn and Harper used to be inseparable. He adored her, he hopefully still does, but the problem is that Brooklyn has a track record for ignoring family birthdays now. 'It would be devastating for Harper not to hear from him. She hasn't done anything and she's only 13-years-old, she is the innocent party here. 'Harper's birthday has always been such a happy day, she's the adored little daughter so it's always so joyous but this is a tough situation. 'Brooklyn was 12 when Harper was born, he was so important in her life and it must be terribly sad that she isn't seeing him since the fall out with David and Victoria happened. 'David and Victoria very much blame Nicola for all of this but hopefully Brooklyn will see sense. 'While Harper doesn't have her own Instagram yet, the family thing is to tag her in on their posts as #harperseven.' At the start of her relationship with Brooklyn, Nicola seemed to forge a strong bond with Harper. The actress soon positioned herself as a 'big sister' figure to the little girl, who is aid to have 'adored' her. But now the couple, who married in April 2022 at her family's £76million Florida mansion, no longer speak to Sir David and Lady Beckham, with the couple believing that she controls Brooklyn. Posh and Becks were furious when the couple didn't contact Harper when they visited London just weeks after David's birthday. At the time they were also cross that they didn't get in touch with Cruz, 19, either because at that point he and Brooklyn had never had a crossed word. Since then the singer has very much come out on his parents' side amid the rift. Despite ignoring his father's birthday and his mum Victoria's two weeks before in April, Brooklyn did take to Instagram to wish the footballer's mum Sandra a happy birthday two weeks ago. However, Victoria was devastated when he didn't do the same for her father Tony back in May. Last week, Nicola addressed speculation that she was 'controlling' Brooklyn after posting snaps with her family and Brooklyn celebrating her father Nelson's 83rd birthday on the European getaway. The celebratory photos were the latest blow for David and Victoria, after Brooklyn snubbed his own dad's 50th birthday - with many flooding the comment section to accuse Nicola of being to blame. Yet she hit back by 'liking' a fan's comment that suggested Brooklyn had made his own decision. The comment read: 'The fact people are in this comment section talking bs about someone controlling a GROWN man is absurd. The guy is an adult and can make his own decisions, leave them be and stop blaming women for everything.' Amid his escalating feud with his family, the pair failed to publicly acknowledge David's milestone 50th birthday on May 8. David and Victoria's 26th wedding anniversary also passed without mention, despite the former Manchester United and England footballer referencing Brooklyn in his own post. David previously thanked wife Victoria for their 'beautiful children' as the couple both acknowledged estranged son Brooklyn while celebrating their wedding anniversary on July 4. The former footballer who also shares sons Romeo, 20, and Cruz, 22 with the ex Spice Girl shared a series of throwback snaps of the family in happier times. Declaring his love for Victoria, who he referred to as Lady Beckham following his Knighthood, he wrote: '26 years today you said YES to me Happy Anniversary and thank you for giving me our beautiful children and building the life that we have together.' He went on to tag his children including estranged son Brooklyn. Victoria, 51, also tagged her eldest son, captioning her post: 'Another year, another chapter in our love story. 'I'm so proud of the beautiful family and life we've built together. You and our four incredible children complete me. I love you so much @davidbeckham. Here's to 26 years!!' Despite the apparent olive branch, insiders believe Brooklyn will not be in attendance when Harper turns 14. Rumours of a rift between the eldest son and his parents began when Brooklyn was noticeably silent on his former Spice Girl mother's birthday, a far cry from his usual sweet posts about her. Neither the former photographer nor his wife wished Victoria a happy 51st, while David, Romeo and Cruz posted gushing messages. And as well as snubbing dad David's birthday online, he also was notably absent from all of his 50th birthday celebrations - including a boys' fishing trip. Despite flying to London at the time, Brooklyn and Nicola also didn't attend the big family party at the Beckhams' Cotswolds home or an idyllic trip to France or a meal at Notting Hill restaurant, Core. Brooklyn reportedly 'told his famous family that he wants no contact' with them last month in the latest devastating turn of their ongoing feud. According to reports, the eldest Beckham boy has had no communication with his family following father David's knighthood being announced, and only learned of the news in the media alongside the rest of the world. Denying he'd asked for no contact, a source close to Brooklyn told the publication: 'Everyone's focus should be David Beckham 's great honour'. Meanwhile a source close to Brooklyn also denied the claims as they told MailOnline, 'this seems to be another deliberate attempt to misrepresent the truth, and it only serves to distract from this honor being bestowed on Brooklyn's father.'

Revealed: What your favourite way of eating EGGS says about you, according to science - and it's bad news for people who prefer them boiled
Everyone has their own preference when it comes to their breakfast eggs. But whether you prefer them sunny side up or hard boiled, your taste in eggs might say a lot about you. According to a study commissioned by the British Egg Industry Council, your favourite way of eating eggs can predict everything from your personality to your fashion sense. And it's bad news for fans of boiled eggs, as the data suggests that fans of this cooking method are less conscientious and run a greater risk of getting divorced. Over 1,000 UK adults took a detailed survey about their lifestyle, family life, and, of course, how they cook their eggs. The rsults revealed that childless adults typically prefer a more leisurely breakfast of scrambled eggs, while those with four or more kids opt for fast fried eggs. Egg choice might even be linked to your profession - with manual workers, casual labourers, and the unemployed generally choosing fried eggs. So, what does your favourite type of egg say about you? Poached eggs Using a mathematical technique called the Generalised Linear Regression Model, the researchers used their survey results to predict character and lifestyle traits based on egg choices. This revealed that poached eggs are generally the favourite choice of fathers with two children. Poached egg lovers are also likely to come from small families themselves, with no more than one older brother or sister. Perhaps due to how much practice it takes to get them right, preference for poached eggs tends to increase as you get older. In terms of their personality, fans of poached eggs tend to be the life of the party. If you like poached eggs, you are likely to be socially outgoing and extroverted. You may also have a tendency to wear flashy 'decorative clothing' and have a passion for upbeat music. Boiled eggs: You are disorganised, careless, and impulsive. You likely have lower levels of conscientiousness and are more likely to be divorced What your favourite eggs say about you Poached eggs: You're outgoing and extroverted, and love of upbeat music. Boiled eggs: You're disorganised and careless. Your chances of divorce are higher than others. Fried eggs: You are creative, curious, and open to new experiences. Scrambled eggs: You may be guarded and less open to others. Omelettes: You're organised and self-motivated. Your home is tidy and you have a low chance of getting divorced. After all that, it might not come as a surprise to learn that poached egg lovers are also happier than most people on average. Boiled eggs If boiled is your favourite way of enjoying an egg, then this study has some bad news for you. Those who listed boiled eggs as their preferred choice had a greater tendency to be disorganised, careless, and impulsive. This group also scored lower for conscientiousness, which is the psychological propensity to be responsible, organised, hardworking, and goal-oriented. Perhaps related to these points, boiled egg lovers also run a greater risk of getting divorced at some point in their lives. Besides this, those who opt for boiling are more likely to be women and probably live in the Southeast of England. Fried eggs How to make the perfect boiled egg Fill a saucepan with tap water and bring to the boil Put your egg (in its shell) in the water for two minutes Transfer the egg to a bowl of cold water, at 30°C (measured with a food thermometer) for two minutes Put it back in the boiling water for two minutes, then in a bowl of 30°C water for two minutes Repeat step four another six times After 32 mins, your egg will be ready According to the survey, fried egg lovers are largely men from Scotland who are employed in some form of skilled labour. They are also likely to come from big families, with multiple brothers and sisters and at least four children of their own. In stark contrast to those who like their eggs boiled, fried egg enjoyers are free-spirited individuals. If you always take your eggs sunny side up, you are probably open to new experiences, creative, curious, and imaginative. You may also have a better than normal ability to vividly recall your dreams in the morning. Additionally, those who prefer fried eggs are better informed about sex, have a wider array of sexual experiences, and stronger sex drives than average. Scrambled eggs Based on this data, scrambled eggs are the go-to choice for the well-to-do young professional. If scrambled eggs are your favourite, you are probably childless, between the ages of 29 and 39, and live anywhere south of Birmingham other than London. You are also more likely to be in a managerial or senior-level job and to own your home. Psychologically, scrambled egg fans tend to score lower for neuroticism. That means they experience anger, sadness, or anxiety less frequently and less intensely than other people. However, people in this group are also more guarded and less open to other people. Omelettes If you somehow find time to make yourself an omelette in the morning, then you probably have your life together to an impressive degree. And the data from this study agrees, as people who selected omelette as their favourite were more reliable, well-organised, and self-disciplined. Unsurprisingly, these paragons of virtue are also more likely to have tidy homes. To make things even better, omelette eaters tend to have longer life expectancies and lower rates of divorce. In terms of demographics, if you like an omelette over other eggs, you are more likely to be middle class. You also probably live in Sheffield, Liverpool, or Newcastle. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? If the question is simply whether chickens or eggs evolved first, the answer is certainly eggs. The first eggs of any kind evolved about 600 million years ago. The first hard-shelled eggs followed about 195 million years ago. Even the first bird eggs date back 120 million years. Chickens, meanwhile, only emerged 3,000 years ago. However, the first specimen of the domestic chicken would have been born to chicken-jungle fowl hybrid parents.
