13 Loose Denim Dresses That Are Surprisingly More Comfortable Than Jeans

Squeezing into stiff denim shorts or skinny jeans in the heat of summer feels like punishment. But giving up on denim altogether? Also not ideal — especially if you love the look of a crisp blue wash or a Western-inspired silhouette. That’s where loose denim dresses come in. They’re structured just enough to look polished, […]

JOSH KELLY will leave it all in the ring tonight as he takes on WBC Latino champion Flavius Biea at the top of a Newcastle bill – and the main card is now UNDERWAY!

How to make most of Open Farm Sunday for a bargain day out with the kids

HAVE a field day down on the farm without ploughing through loads of money. 

Tomorrow is Open Farm Sunday, an annual event giving visitors the opportunity to learn about the farming community.

How to make most of Open Farm Sunday for a bargain day out with the kids[/caption]

For farmers, it is a chance to show the public the essential work they do. 

WHERE AND WHEN: Since the first Open Farm Sun­day in 2006, more than 2,000 farm­ers have wel­comed over 3.25mil­lion peo­ple on to their farms. 

You can search for a farm near you at openfarm.org. 

Entry to most is free, making it a baaaa-gain day out! But some may charge a small fee or charge for specific activities.

While most events take place tomorrow, some open on other dates in June. 

FIND A FARM: Each farm will be taking part in the event in their own way. 

For some it’s a chance to take people on tractor rides, others may offer a gentle walk through the fields. 

Dairy farms might show you milking time, while arable farms may dig deep into growing techniques. 

Check out the listings first to find a farm that appeals the most to you. 

FARMING FOR ALL: You don’t have to head into the countryside to experience farm life.

Some of those taking part in Sunday’s event are within towns and cities.

If you miss them, you can visit the animals at local city farms at any time of year.

There are city farms in London, Bath, Nottingham, Sheffield and other areas of the UK. Some are free, though welcome donations. 

MAKE HAY AND STAY: If you’re bitten by the farming bug, a holiday or mini break on a working farm might be magical. 

For the cream of the crop look at a site like Farm Stays UK, which has B&B and self-catering accommodation. 

Camping can be an inexpensive option and on the Pitch Up website you can use the “farm” and “price” filters to find your perfect campsite.

MrQ Casino Bonus: 200 Cash Spins on Fishin’ BIGGER Pots of Gold

GET READY to make a splash with MrQ casino bonus!

New UK players over 18 years can dive into a four-day spin extravaganza on Fishin’ BIGGER Pots of Gold. Just deposit £10 each day with bonus code POTS200 and watch up to 200 thrilling cash spins land in your account.

Sounds juicy! Let’s show you how. 

What is MrQ’s welcome offer?

MrQ Casino brings in something special for new players. Imagine this: every day for four days, you deposit and spend a tenner (£10) and instantly unlock 50 electric cash spins on Fishin’ BIGGER Pots of Gold. Each spin is valued at 10p per spin, so you receive £20 as extra rewards.

The best part? There are no wagering requirements on free spins and associated winnings. So, you can withdraw them anytime or use them to enjoy more games. 

However, there’s a catch! If you miss a day within the first four days, you may not claim the full 200 free spins. You also have 12 hours after each deposit to wager at least £10 and trigger 50 free spins. Once they land in your account, they must be used within 48 hours.

It’s vital to note that MrQ Casinos has provided a list of games you shouldn’t wager your £10 on, as they make you ineligible for this offer. You can bet on other available games, especially slots, to earn free spins. 

Illustration of a MrQ casino promotion offering up to 200 cash spins on Fishin' Bigger Pots of Gold with code POTS200.  No wagering on winnings.

How to claim MrQ casino offer

Ready to claim this attractive incentive? Here are the steps to follow

  1. Visit MrQ’s official website and create an account using your email address and a password. 
  2. Once in your profile, click the “Claim Offer” button. This takes you to a deposit window.  
  3. Deposit at least £10 and stake it on Fishin’ BIGGER Pots of Gold (or another eligible slot) within 12 hours.
  4. Watch 50 cash spins pop into your account instantly.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 on days two, three, and four to reel in all 200 spins.

What happens next?

As soon as you hit that £10 spend each day, your spins will splash into “My Rewards”. Afterwards, load up Fishin’ BIGGER Pots of Gold and spin its reels for free. Remember, your spins vanish after 48 hours, so use them quickly. 

What about potential wins? They drop straight into your cash balance with no hoops to jump through, ready for withdrawal or more play. If you have leftover spins after the 48-hour expiry window, they’ll sail off quietly. 

Terms and conditions of the MrQ casino bonus offer

This casino bonus has its own terms and conditions. Let’s review them 

  • This offer is available to new UK customers aged 18 years or above.
  • Deposit and spend £10 per day within 12 hours for 50 spins daily (200 total).
  • Spins expire 48 hours after credit; unused spins are removed.
  • No wagering requirement on spin winnings; large wins may undergo security checks.

We recommend that you wager responsibly and adhere to any applicable terms and conditions, as failure to do so may result in disqualification from any available offer.

⚠ Responsible gambling & tools at Playfina

We couldn’t write a Playfina casino review without covering responsible gambling. It’s as important as any other feature of this casino, as it confirms Playfina cares about its players and keeps pace with the latest regulations in the industry. 

Even though you won’t find GAMSTOP or other similar programs at Playfina, it offers a variety of responsible gambling tools, including:

  • Deposit, wager and loss limits
  • Time session limit 
  • Self-exclusion tool 
  • Time-out option

We wouldn’t mind a few more tools like reality checks, self-assessment tests and links to responsible gambling resources, but it’s still better than what is offered at many other casinos. 

☎ Playfina customer support info

Playfina’s customer support is top-notch. You can contact them through many channels for relatively fast answers. Here are the options:

  • Live chat, which is accessible from the menu bar, is even available for unregistered players.
  • Email support for when you’re not in a rush or have a more specific question. 
  • Dedicated FAQ section for quick answers to common questions.

The customer support at Playfina is available 24/7. We even test-drove their live chat. First, you’re greeted by a bot, then you’re redirected to a human agent. The support agents are responsive, friendly and eager to help. 

🔒 Security, license, reputation and trustworthiness

Playfina is fully regulated and holds a Curaçao licence. It clearly displays all its licensing info in the website’s footer, which is another green flag. 

In addition, Playfina uses SSL encryption measures to keep your personal data safe. 

What we didn’t see on their website was any proof of testing for game fairness. 

👉 How to sign up at Playfina Ireland

Playfina casino sign-up form with welcome package offer.

One of the benefits of playing at Playfina is its simple and fast sign-up process. A few clicks, and you’re in. The only condition is that you need to be 18 years or older. Let’s take it step-by-step:

  4. Select your country and currency.
  5. Enter a bonus code if you have one.
  6. Tick all the right boxes and hit ‘Create Account’. 

Expert’s verdict about Playfina

Playfina seems to have covered all their bases. 

First off, it stands out with an extensive game library, one of the biggest selections of bonuses in Ireland, a multilevel VIP system and numerous payment methods. 

However, a few improvements could be made with more responsible gambling tools, game testing certification, exclusive games and cashback offers for regular players. 

Playfina is fully optimised for mobile devices and even has a dedicated mobile app. Overall, Playfina is a solid choice for Irish players who are after a diverse but reliable online casino experience.
