You’ve gotta be Kiwiing me!!!

Beds4U Henderson

If you spend most of your nights switching sides, trying to get at least a few hours of sleep, you're definitely not eating enough kiwi fruit. According to a study, eating two kiwi fruits one hour before bedtime may help you fall asleep faster and sleep better.
Kiwi fruits tend to carry very high antioxidant levels and serotonin levels. These antioxidants appear to have a good influence on sleep, according to a growing number of studies based around this. High levels of serotonin may also be significant, since serotonin helps to initiate sleep and then sustain sleep throughout the night. It also helps to regulate the phases of sleep and stimulates alertness in the morning. Test it out to set yourself for a perfect night in slumber, but things surely do appear to be going well for the small fruit.

Breaking the secret code ...🤨

Fiona from Henderson

Today I’m breaking the secret code of all responsible car, truck and motorbike drivers.
We have kept this secret to ourselves for so many years, all the while assuming (incorrectly) that others may have guessed it along the way.
Well they haven’t, so now I am being forced to break the code of silence.

Here we go … to all of those red light runners, the green (GO) light does come back, it really does.
All you have to do is wait a little bit and … ta dah!!! There it is.
That pretty green light that you all seem to think is not coming back magically reappears after a short period of time.

Please try this and you to will become our newest member into the secret club of safe and responsible drivers.
For the newest members of our responsible and safe drivers club, welcome.

However, to become fully fledged LIFE TIME members, you must also understand that the two sticks behind your steering wheel are the window wipers to be used on rainy days and also to clean your windscreen on days where there is glare from the sun and the ‘hidden’ INDICATOR.
Please learn which one is the indicator and use it for every corner you turn into and for every single merge into traffic – both left and right sides.
Once you have done that, you will automatically become a lifetime member of our very exclusive club.

But please remember, you have to be a consistent responsible driver to stay as a lifetime member of the responsible and safe drivers.
