‘This is wonderful’, people cry as cat left ‘unconscious’ by horror fire saved by new on-trial device & ‘heroes’ praised
DUBLIN firefighters have been deemed as heroes after rescuing a cat from a blaze that posed severe danger.
Firefighters from Dolphins Barn in Dublin were called out following reports of a house fire in Ballyfermot.
While dealing with the blaze, firefighters were alerted to a cat who needed to be rescued.
The cat was located by a BA crew, but was unconscious once it was found.
One firefighter placed a pet oxygen mask on the cat, whose name is Biscuit, in an effort to bring the tiny animal back to consciousness.
After only 10 minutes, Biscuit was right as rain and back snuggling into its owner.
Dublin Fire Brigade said: “Firefighters from Dolphins Barn rescued Biscuit from a house fire in Ballyfermot yesterday evening.
“The cat was located by a BA crew and was unconscious.
“Firefighter “Paw”amedic Carrick placed a pet oxygen mask on Biscuit and after 10 minutes, Biscuit was snuggling into it’s owner.”
They added that a dog and a budgie were also rescued in the fire but they didn’t require the need of extra oxygen.
They said: “A budgie and dog were also taken to safety but didn’t require oxygen therapy.”
Many took to the comments of the social media post to praise the “heroes” for their lifesaving work.
One person wrote: “Well done all. You’re an amazing bunch and I love this new initiative.
“Animals can be a great support to people who’ve gone through a devastating event such as losing their home to fire.”
Another said: “Thank you for saving Biscuit and the other animals! Firefighters are heroes.”
A third added: “This is wonderful! Thank you.”
TRIALLING PET OXYGEN MASKS
While a fourth said: “Thank You – it restores one’s faith in human nature when you hear stories like this.”
Dublin Fire Brigade are currently trialling new pet oxygen masks in case of a similar emergency.
They have now been placed on nine appliances across two districts in Dublin.
Dublin Fire Brigade added: “We are trialling pet oxygen masks, which are on 9 fire appliances, in two districts.
“We are working with Village Vets to introduce them across the city.
“A”meeow”zing result!”
I transformed my disgusting council house kitchen with cupboard paint & stick-on tiles – now it’s my favourite room
A SAVVY mum has impressed interior-lovers online with the bargain DIY hacks she used to totally transform her kitchen.
Evie Brooks documented the incredible low-cost changes that took her kitchen from ‘disgusting’ to ‘delicious’ – although she admits she made ‘one big mistake’.
Posting from her TikTok account (@evie_brooks), she titled her clip: ‘council house kitchen renovation.’
The first image shows the kitchen pre-makeover, a nice open space which Evie says is ‘not too bad’.
However she mentions the lack of white goods and appliances – with only a fridge she’d managed to nab from Facebook Marketplace.
Thanks to generosity from friends and family, she quickly managed to get this sorted – receiving a washing machine from her Nan and a coffee machine from her friends.
And after struggling with the bargain Marketplace fridge, another relative even sent her with a swish new replacement.
Next, Evie tackled the dated magnolia walls by painting them in a chic neutral colour, complimented by gorgeous floating shelves.
However there was one flaw in her plan – she’d also taken to her cupboards and cabinets with paint, which she later found out is a no-no for council homes.
“Apparently you’re not supposed to paint council house kitchen cabinets,” she wrote, “no, I didn’t know this till after I started, but I’d gone too far to stop so [I’m] just going to have to cross that bridge when we come to it.”
Although Evie had broken some rules in the process of painting her cabinets, they fitted into the kitchen space beautifully and modernised the units without having to fork out for a full refit.
She’d also set up a fancy coffee area in one corner of her worktops, complete with professional-looking hanging cups.
And the walls above her counter tops were decorated with custom tile stickers, from a brand called Tile Skinz.
And after being gifted nearly all of her appliances, Evie had some cash leftover to purchase her very own dishwasher, which was bound to help the busy mum run her household.
Adding a few potted plants and incense sticks as finishing touches, Evie’s kitchen was complete – taking her seven months in total to renovate.
How to do your council house up on the cheap
- Take inspiration from pricier shops and head to B&M, Home Bargains for interior decorations.
- Head to YouTube for easy to follow tutorials on how to decorate rather than paying for professionals.
- For a quick glow-up for your floors or anywhere with tiles, opt for stick-on vinyl to save on costs.
- A lick of paint does wonders to make a room feel brand-new.
- Switch out kitchen cupboard knobs for modern ones instead of buying brand-new cupboards.
The lengthy process was well worth it, as Evie said the kitchen was now her favourite room in the house and she plans to continue upgrading her white goods when she gets the chance.
Viewers in the comments praised her for her incredible DIY transformation.
“Love it. Who’ve [Sic] create such a gorgeous space. You go girl.”
“Well done lady, good end result, a credit to you.”
“I think you’ve done an amazing job, well done.”
People are only just realising what the circle and dot symbol means on their laundry labels – so can you figure it out?
HAVE you ever looked at a laundry label and were utterly bemused by what the symbols all mean?
While some of them are pretty self-explanatory – such as the temperature the clothing should be washed at – there are others that are more confusing.
And one woman admitted she’d been left stunned after discovering the meaning of one of the images – a square with a dot in the middle of it.
Mum-of-three Holly took to TikTok to share her revelation, as she showed the laundry label on her duvet.
She zoomed in on the symbols, before using her iPhone to look up the ‘laundry care’ pictures.
And as she did so, it was revealed that the image actually indicates the maximum temperature that an item can be tumble dried at.
“Please tell me I’m not the only one who DID NOT know this hack?” Holly wrote over the top of the TikTok video.
“Just casually asking in the group chat if I can tumble dry something and they teach me this little hack!” she captioned the clip.
“Have I been living under a rock??”
Lots of people are trying to limit the use of their tumble dryers due to the cost of living crisis.
And another assumption is that the appliances aren’t eco friendly.
But an expert from AO.com has explained that it’s not always the case.
“Older models of tumble dryers were indeed energy guzzlers yet this myth that tumble dryers can’t be energy-efficient has been blown out of the water in recent years,” Gwilym Snook, appliance expert at AO.com, said.
“Enter the heat pump tumble dryer, a specially designed appliance that recycles warm air to dry your clothes at a much cheaper rate than their older counterparts.”
While it will cost around 63p on average to run the tumble dryer for one cycle, the fee can be reduced further if you dry your clothes “between 10pm and 8am during off-peak electricity hours”.
We built our dream home for £48K after living in a van – we don’t want to waste our cash on rent & now have our own farm
A COUPLE spent £48k building their dream home – out of two 40ft shipping containers.
Lexi Newkirk, 24, and her husband, Diego, 25, wanted to escape the city and bought 12-and-a-half acres of land in Hill County, Texas, US – for £144,700 .
The pair have always loved unique homes and decided to make a tiny home out of shipping containers – costing £4,000 each.
Diego – who works in mould removal – has spent the last year constructing the containers into a 640 square foot home with one bedroom and a bath.
The pair now hope to have it completely finished by the beginning of March and will use the rest of their land to build a homestead.
Lexi, a owner of a digital marketing agency, said: “We love it.
“We’re living on 12-and-a-half acres and I love it.
“It’s like our own little city.
“It’s going to catch a lot of peoples’ attention.”
Lexi and Diego grew up in Austin, Texas, but wanted to move out and bought their land – which they named Livingstone Ranch – in October 2023.
Lexi said: “We grew up in the city and we wanted to escape it.”
The pair had originally wanted to turn their land into an “exotic tiny Airbnb ranch” by building 15 to 20 little unique homes but were not allowed to put in commercial property due to state laws.
Instead they decided to use one of their ideas to use and build their own shipping container home.
The single use containers were delivered after the couple had marked out their road and spot for their house in November 2023.
They built a foundation and basement before stacking the containers on top of each other.
Lexi said: “We did the plumbing, electricals, put a septic tank in.
“We had to run the electricity about 300ft.”
The couple has been living in a renovated RV – which they bought on Facebook Marketplace for £3,190 – while the complete the container home.
They have been making the home bit by bit to spread costs out and Diego has been doing most of the labour himself.
The pair have the dry wall to go on before they can then decorate and hope to get in for March 1, 2025.
Lexi said: “The living area and kitchen is all underneath.
“Then we have a bedroom, master bath and office.
“The bedroom wakes up to the sunrise and from the bath you can see the sunset.”
Lexi and Diego hope to then save up to make a barndominium – a barn conversion – and have purchased chickens and two cows to build their homestead dream.
Lexi said: “We didn’t want to put that money towards an apartment.
“Where my mum lives it’s a lot of homes right on top of each other.
“They are all the same.
“We want to give people inspiration for different projects you can do.”
