Dyson has come up with a unique solution: a pair of very pricey headphones with a built-in air purifier.The Dyson Zone is billed as a wearable device that combines noise-cancelling headphones with a visor over the mouth and nose that blasts the wearer with clean, filtered air.It's said to be targeted at city dwellers who often experience harmful sound and air pollution on a daily basis.The visor does not cover the nose and mouth, but instead creates a pocket of cool, clean air around the mouth.

tattoo artist had secretly 'branded' them with their initials.Taking to Reddit to share the tale, the customer said she had visited a tattoo shop in their area armed with a photo of the design she wanted.The "special" design was a duplicate of one that their father, late grandfather, and great grandfather all had, according to The Mirror.So she requested that it looked exactly as it did in the photo.Initially, the woman said she was thrilled with the finished tattoo - until her great-grandma pointed out something odd."A few weeks later when I show my great grandmother the tattoo she grabs my arm to look at and compliment it, then asks, 'Who's AJ?,'" she said."I asked her what she means, and she points out on the tattoo where the initials A and J or maybe T were hidden into the tattoo."I'm instantly p***ed, as my artist's name is Alice Trever [name changed]."She tries to assure me it's no big deal if I hadn't noticed it until now, but I still reached out to the artist sort of irritated."The woman requested a partial refund from the tattoo artists, but they wouldn't give it to her."They told me the style of art I got is called traditional and it's 'pretty trad' for all artists who do that style to do it," she said."I demanded a partial refund and they refused, so I complained to the owner who made the artist give me a full refund."Now the artist is running a full smear campaign, talking about moving shops, and all kinds of cr*p."They concluded the post by asking users whether they were in the wrong for pushing the issue, but they said she deserves more than just a refund.One person said: "I would even consider suing. They kind of branded you with their initials...

The Queen was heavily involved in the planning of yesterday's memorial service for her late husband Prince Philip and left a beautiful tribute to him hidden in plain sight.The heartbroken monarch ensured there were plenty of personal touches at the event at Westminster Abbey - despite the congregation being 1,800 strong.Among the sweet tributes was one dated back to the day Her Majesty married Philip in November 1947 - in the same Abbey.That's because the flowers in the church for the memorial service were in shades of patriotic red, white and blue, with larger arrangements featuring blue eryngium – known as sea holly – a nod to the duke’s career in the Royal Navy, and his lifelong affection for the sea, Mirror reports.However, the smaller posies included white dendrobium orchids - the flowers that appeared in Princess Elizabeth’s wedding bouquet when she married Philip in 1947.The Queen is said to have personally requested orchids to be included in her wedding bouquet.The rest of the service itself also featured several of Prince Philip's poignant last requests that were finally honoured almost a year from his funeral.When he died last April aged 99, England was still in the grip of restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic.This meant his funeral, held on April 17 at St George's Chapel in Windsor, was a much scaled-back service, with just 30 guests and no singing by the guests.It had been Philip's express wishes for the congregation to join and sing the rousing hymn Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer at his funeral.To stay up to date with all the latest news, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here.The hymn was sung by a small choir, guests at his funeral were not allowed to join in but yesterday (March 29),
