1 DAY AGO - Meet Dmitry, founder of Beer and Beyond, purveyors of independent craft beer, rare German lagers and craft gins.
Dmitry originally hails from St. Petersburg and before the pandemic hit had spent 16 years as a major UK manufacturer of ballroom dancewear.
When lockdown struck he switched focus to his passion of craft beer. He told Wimbledon Newsie:
"One day after spending hours searching around for particular rare craft beer with no luck - l had a brainwave and there and then decided to set up my own shop.
"With the help of my wife we launched Beer and Beyond to help spread craft beer love around SW London.
"What makes real craft breweries special is very small batch production with the best organic ingredients. Most beers are unfiltered, unpasteurised and vegan friendly.
"Beers have a short shelf life as they are organic and hops fade very quickly. I always have a gluten free and alcohol free selection.
"I only stock true independent breweries that really focus on the quality. Collapse

1 DAY AGO - The brilliant Royal photographer who took official portraits for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s 10th wedding anniversary last week is also the inspiration behind a stunning exhibition that puts AFC Wimbledon fans in the frame.
Chris Floyd, who has earned worldwide acclaim for his stunning pictures of celebrities like Sir Paul McCartney, Line Of Duty star Vicky McClure, David Hockney and Jude Law, was invited to Kensington Palace to help William and Kate celebrate their special day.
But closer to home, he’s also taken 16 evocative pictures that highlight the diversity of our fanbase and underline our “We Are Fans, We Are Owners, We Are Wimbledon” ethos.
The posters are now proudly hanging on walls inside Plough Lane so they can be seen by members of the public coming to the ground for their Covid jabs.

After all this time in our loungewear in lockdown and hair in a bun, the time has come to emerge - ideally looking our best!!
And Hair Extensions are a great way to add enhace your hair game. Hair can be thicker and longer plus extensions typically hold a style better than our own hair (Hello all day curls!).
And if the weather is HOT this summer, follow a few quick tips to keep your new cool hair...cool!
1️⃣ Avoid Hot showers / long steamy showers / saunas etc for too long
🔹This starts to break the bonds down - the tops become soft and can shed/break
🔹This is worst for tape as it's affects the stickiness and they can slide out
☑️ Change to lukewarm water when washing and when not washing, try to avoid long hot showers/saunas so the stream doesn't get into hair.
2️⃣ Hairdryer on hot heat
🔹This can melt bonds - if glue this melts them together
🔹If you have beads, it can cause them to shed, Collapse
