Plus, it has a rotating hook so you can hang it on the back of a door or in the shower for convenient access. Promising review: "I originally bought this in March of 2024 for my weekend trip to NYC. I was skeptical about the size at first, and then I packed it, and I was shocked by how much it actually holds! I was able to fit my shampoo, conditioner, body wash, makeup remover, toothbrush, toothpaste, hair ties, Band-Aids, and face wash brush inside! I have used it several times since, and it's safe to say I'm in love with it!" —ChelsPrice: $15 A Tide to Go stain remover pen I will literally not leave the house without. I cannot tell you how many white tops my trusty lil' pen has saved. Promising review: "My husband and I love Tide to Go pens! I have one in every purse and in our cars, too.

Think you need one?? YOU DO!" —beepePrice: $59.99 And finally, a collapsible water bowl for when your furry friend comes along for an adventure (or just a long walk) with you.

Highly recommend if your pet is an adventurer like you! Promising review: "This bowl is easy to travel with; it connects to my husband's and my hiking backpack and is still versatile enough to just have on us to feed him when he's out and about with us and durable enough that my German Shepherd doesn't knock it over." —KittyPrice: $7.99

Definitely recommend for the price!" —Chase & AimeePrice: $28.99 (available in sizes S–4X and 22 styles) A buttery soft pair of biker shorts with pockets that are excellent if you want to avoid chafing but still stay cool in the warmer weather or during your latest sweat sesh.

Christmas trees complaint overlooked by Pontypool council
Council staff were reminded to adhere to the concerns and complaints policy. This was addressed at the council meeting on April 23, chaired by Councillor Caroline Price, with several councillors attending in person or remotely. The minutes of previous meetings were confirmed as true records. Grants of £200 and £500 were approved for Llangollen International Eisteddfod and Torfaen Pride, respectively. The finance manager was asked to review and clarify the council's asset register. The council has made a commitment to the environment, and a biodiversity NRAP report is to be submitted by the end of the year. Biodiversity and sustainability will be included in all future committee agendas. Various governance and policy updates were made, including the adoption or re-adoption of policies on carer's leave, neonatal care leave, special and additional leave, artificial intelligence, concerns and complaints, and emergency call out. The council was shortlisted for two awards at the One Voice Wales AGM. Motions for this are due by June 20. The council also plans to share information about the Welsh Government's Democratic Engagement Grant with the Youth Council. A portion of the meeting was confidential, with the press and public excluded in accordance with the Public Bodies (Admission to Meetings) Act 1960.
