Womens boots keep your feet warm and thankfully are now firmly on the fashion map.

The nights are drawing in and the clocks will be going back on October 31st before we know it. This all adds up to possibly one of the most exciting times in footwear purchasing, buying winter boots.

Now, this has not always been the case. Even 10 years ago the choice of womens boots was far from exciting. Black and brown being the colours available and if you wanted a flat boot, you’d almost certainly know which style you’d have to go for.

Women are now as blessed with the ranges of womens boots on offer on our high streets as the fantastic shoes were get to choose from. In fact, boots are being worn all year round now which further confirms their popularity.

One of the biggest effects on the womens boots market has been the introduction the phenomimom that is the Ugg boot to the UK. Most of the shoe manufacturers are making boots in the Ugg boots style but the original and authentic Ugg is made by UGG® Australia. There are lots of Ugg Boot brands, so why wear UGG® Australia?

UGG® Australia are the authentic UGG Boots that the celebrities wear and have become so popular that the phrase ‘ugg boots’ has become synonymous with the brand. Besides that there are many specific reasons to buy the UGG® Australia brand only:

UGG® Australia offer the very highest quality UGGs;
They have solid heels that do not buckle;
Genuine sheepskin layer keeps water out;
Lavish, thick fleece is toasty but breathable;
These boots will last years - you get what you pay for;
They are treated to be more resilient to odour throughout their lifetime.

These Ugg boots are as popular as ever in celebrity circles and on the high street - they look great, they feel great, they’re even practical and they last. The brand is constantly evolving its product range too - the UGG Cardy and Bailey Button boots are brilliant new variations on the popular style that are in demand far far in excess of the numbers made by the brand.

Wellies are one of the most practical pieces of footwear if you live somewhere like the UK where we tend get the odd shower! The thing is, plain, dull green wellies are not exactly what many fashionista would care to walk down the street in. Cue, Hunter. The quintessential and original welly manufacturer have embraced the 21st Century and have welcomed the fact that the products are now worn by a much wider range of people and used for a wider range of activities. Over the years, Hunter Wellies have received much recognition, but particular pride is taken in The Royal Warrants of Appointment as suppliers of waterproof footwear to HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. For the fashion conscious however, a collaboration with Jimmy Choo, and the introduction of colours such as fushia, violet and silver is the biggest recognition. Practicality and fashion in one pair of boots hence, we’re seeing Hunter Wellies on the streets and not just in the fields.

Hunter Wellies are now being worn as day to day womens boots and what a fantastic way to introduce colour into your wardrobe and onto your feet. The range is growing year on year with seasonal styles offering the latest colours.

Assembly Solutions Limited announce launch of a new range of electrical cable assemblies kits specifically for the exhibition industry.

The next time you’re attending an exhibition, take a moment to appreciate the complexities of setting up a successful exhibition. The demands made on the construction crew are enormous. Working on a strict “do or die” deadline, they must have 100’s of booths, lecture areas, refreshment stalls and many more constructions finished and functioning perfectly before the doors open. One of the most critical tasks they face is setting up the intricate network of cable assemblies that power the entire exhibition.

ASL (Assembly Solutions Ltd.) is the “Complete Wiring Capability” company. Since 1995, ASL has been manufacturing and delivering cable Assembly Solutions to UK and overseas enterprises that demand the most sophisticated and reliable cable assemblies that money can buy. In addition to their Bolton factory headquarters, ASL now has factories in Poland and China to produce cable assemblies in the quantities their ever increasing clientele demands at the most competitive prices in the market.

Recently, ASL announced the launch of a new range of electrical cable assemblies specifically for the exhibition industry. The demands of the exhibition industry are somewhat unique, because their cable networks must be both as complex as permanent large installations and mobile. Exhibitions are set up one day and pulled down the next, only to be re-installed in another location for the next exhibition. This requires cable assemblies that can be quickly and repeatedly assembled and dismantled, without any loss in functionality.

ASL’s Exhibition Cable Assembly Kit answers this need with specially designed “Plug and Play” wiring harnesses that have been specifically designed and constructed for the needs of the exhibition industry. These PNP cable assemblies are exceptionally versatile and strong to accommodate the range of applications each exhibition demands and the abuse of repeated installations and removals.

With years of experience designing and manufacturing wiring harnesses, control panels, wiring and cable looms and the full spectrum of other cable products, ASL is uniquely qualified to produce cable assemblies for the exhibition industry. This company has been called upon for providing cable assembly solutions for some of the most demanding projects in the industry, including the automotive industry, the utilities industry and the transport industry.

Assembly Solutions Ltd. works closely with the companies that choose them to provide cable assemblies for both one-off custom projects and assembly line production runs. Their reputation for delivering high quality at competitive prices is second-to-none

Lake District Hotels Ltd host fashion show in aid of the Patterdale Mountain Rescue Team.

A fundraising fashion show hosted by The Inn on the Lake at Glenridding has resulted in a £400 donation to the Patterdale Mountain Rescue Team (MRT).  This follows donations and practical support on event and raffle ticket sales from the hotel’s staff earlier this year.

“We recognise the commitment and tremendous value of the Team,” said General Manager, Gary Wilson, “and it’s good to be able to help out where and when we can.  The fashion show and lunch was organised by the Maureen Cookson Fashion House down in the Ribble Valley and we decided that Patterdale MRT should be the main beneficiary from the fundraising.

The event sold out quickly – there was even a waiting list for tickets at one point – and raised a significant sum for charity.

John Williams, Patterdale Mountain Rescue Association Chairman, and Team members, Mike Blakey and Martin Cotterell, recently received a cheque for £400 from Gary at The Inn on the Lake, part of the Lake District Hotels Ltd group.

“We get tremendous support from so many businesses around the valley, many of them members of the Ullswater Association,” said John. “We really appreciate this donation and would like to take the opportunity to thank the team at The Inn on the Lake and the organisers of the fashion show for their work, enthusiasm and effort on our behalf.”

Llite is a Private Limited organisation based in New Cleveland Street Hull with further sites in North and North East Lincolnshire and Sheffield. Established in 2001, Llite was developed in response to local people not accessing local jobs in construction and allied trades. People from out of town were being brought in by the local construction companies. Llite wanted to turn that around so that local construction jobs were accessible to local people and Llite would help to supply learners with the skills and resources to achieve this.

Llite have since developed a workforce of 45, and are now the largest deliverer of construction training in Hull, Sheffield and Scunthorpe, working with 1,200 clients per annum. Despite their growth, Llite are as passionate about developing local people and enabling them to achieve their potential as they were when first established.

James Epworth, Strategy Director of Llite said “The Construction Industry is a very good career option. For local unemployed people enrolling with Llite, learners will have the potential to develop skills in a range of Construction Industry roles. But it doesn’t stop there; we also help learners to find a job through our employability support services”.

Llite have an aftercare service which means once the learner has entered employment, they can still contact Llite to resolve any issues they may have. James continued “the aftercare service is proving to be a valuable resource to learners. If they feel they need further skill development in the future or any help or advice, then we have the facilities and resources to provide this”.

Learners enrolling with Llite will develop skills in the following trade areas:

• Bricklaying
• Plastering
• Joinery
• Plumbing
• General Construction Work
• Painting and Decorating

Llite works with a number of stakeholders including local colleges, Jobcentre +, LSC and HLC to offer these courses to local people. Llite assess each learner on their own merits, and their learning progression is very much tailored towards that individual. If the learner needs more practical skills, a qualification or if the learner has the skills but can’t get into employment – then Llite can offer them a service that best suits their needs. If the individual doesn’t have a CSCS card for example (a passport for construction sites) then Llite will make sure they have the skills to obtain one. James Epworth continued “This (CSCS card) is great for anybody who may have been made redundant in the Construction Industry fields. Obtaining this passport along with employability sessions can greatly enhance someone’s employment prospects”.

Llites Employability Quest teams includes life coaches, basic skills tutors and recruiters. They aim to develop learner’s confidence through learning, activities and events which encourage learners to develop achievable career goals.

In January 2007 Llite obtained a Grade 1 (outstanding) Adult Learning Inspection (OFSTED). It is a major achievement and one Llite is very proud of. Further achievements in Matrix and Investor in People awards were coupled with praise of how well Llite deliver and integrate Basic Skills into Construction training programmes.

HLC have recently awarded an Adult Engagement contract to Llite whose staff have also benefited from HLC services by attending a Level 3 IAG course.

Looking towards Llites future plans James said “Key flexible New Deal contracts are essential to sustain Llite. We are hoping to expand further into North East and North Lincs and develop programmes in conjunction with local schools and colleges. We hope to be further involved in the regeneration of Hull, building schools for the future, and supplying labour from programmes run here at Llite”.

Cable assembly is required in a variety of situations and for a variety of uses. The modern world is completely a wired world. Various types of wires and cables are used to construct all the machines and heavy equipment which are considered as modern engineering marvels. Even the residential or commercial multistorey buildings rely heavily on the wiring and complex cable assemblies used in the access control, electricity supply and communication systems.

It is not wrong to say that the modern world is dependent on wires and cables for transporting the energy (electrical or electronic) and magnetic waves (sound and data) from one place to another. This is the backbone of the all-round development that we experience these days. Can people imagine how tough and complex the cabling system inside a multistory or a jumbo jet is? Of course not, most of them are unaware of the complexity involved in the process.

However, these tasks are performed with much ease and simplicity. Thanks to cable assembly and wiring harness providers, who make life easy by encapsulating the intricacies behind making of these innovative and most usable plug and play products. They just make the tough and complex task of all types of wiring as easy as nothing.

Cable assembly providers are among the major contributors in constructing a safer and more organized world. Without their help, the automation of anything was impossible. Most of the modern industries like automobiles, heavy engineering, and security mechanism is based on different types of custom made wiring harnesses and cable assemblies.

Apart from these complex examples, people can witness several applications of cable assemblies in their everyday life. They are almost everywhere. For example, some most common elements that we see every day in our modern life like Computers, Telephone, Power Supply, Batteries, Lifts, and Medical Equipment are strictly dependent on cable assemblies.

In summary, it is not possible for every common man to judge the complex engineering, tough quality processes, and series of manual and automatic checks performed during the manufacturing of different standard or custom cable assemblies and wiring harnesses, but everybody can understand their impact on modern lifestyle. It is almost impossible for anybody to imagine a comfortable and easy lifestyle without using any of the aforementioned equipment or automated systems.
