_ikea-unveils-brnnboll-a-game-changing-collection-for-gaming-across-the-home.webp "@IKEAlaunches the BRÄNNBOLL collection, inspired by the evolving and diverse needs of gamers and those who live with them. The collection brings 20 versatile items that help gamers create a comfortable and engaging setup when the game is on – and blends nicely into the home when the game is off. <br/><br/>With the fast-growing global gaming community now numbering 3.3 billion, gaming is the world’s largest hobby and an important part of many people’s everyday lives. Today’s gaming is a dynamic activity across different devices and spaces within the home, that involves people of all ages and skill levels. Building on the first-ever IKEA gaming series with Republic of Gamers in 2021, BRÄNNBOLL explores smart solutions for casual gamers that value style and functionality, who want to play together and move fluidly between different platforms and postures. <br/><br/>The collection offers a versatile range of furniture, storage solutions and accessories, designed to not only improve the gaming experience but also support everyday scenarios beyond gameplay. Many pieces carry multiple functions and are designed to be moved around and adapted to different spaces – enabling gamers to swiftly set up an immersive gaming environment and then transition back to their everyday living space without effort.<br/><br/>Seating is the focal point of the collection, with a variety of ergonomic chairs designed to support different gaming postures and scenarios, including an inflatable chair that builds on previous infamous attempts at introducing inflatable furniture. Additionally, the collection features a gaming station, equipped with a foldable tabletop, integrated PC tower storage, cable management, that transforms effortlessly from a playground to a discreet storage unit. Adding to the collection are a number of storage solutions, such as a wall-mounted cabinet, castors on wheels, side tables, and a multifunctional basket that doubles as a movable self-standing table. Complementing these are accessories and decorative elements, such as a mouse pad, a rug and a throw, designed to add a personal touch to the gaming space.<br/><br/>Reimagining gaming aesthetics, infused with the vibrant world of sports<br/>BRÄNNBOLL challenges traditional gaming design, moving away from the typical thematic and darker-toned aesthetics. Instead, the collection introduces vibrant colours and elements inspired by street sports and athleisure. This creates a unique, playful look that combines the energy and dynamism of athletics with the comfort and performance essential for gaming. The BRÄNNBOLL easy chair explores how furniture can become a dynamic component of the virtual gaming experience. It engages the gamer physically, swinging from side to side in harmony with their movement.<br/><br/>The BRÄNNBOLL collection will launch across all IKEA markets in September 2024.")

_39pay-as-you-go-e-bikes-scheme-met-with-scepticism-in-tenby.webp "Boris-style ‘pay as you go’ E-bikes have been launched in Pembrokeshire towns such as Tenby this month, but the initiative has already been hit with scepticism by members of the public, as well as councillors.<br/>The Pembrokeshire County Council trial scheme will see a fleet of E-bikes provided for members of the public to use for commuting, leisure and local activities; with users will simply able to collect and leave the bikes at a handy series of pick-up and drop-off sites around the towns of Tenby, Haverfordwest, Fishguard and Goodwick.<br/><br/>However, members of the public have had their say already on potential issues that the scheme might bring with it, with some labelling such E-bikes as ‘death traps’.<br/>“This is a very bad idea, imagine all the compensation claims when all the accidents start! Look at the state of the roads, potholes everywhere!” posted one person on social media. Another stated: “God help us pedestrians, ordinary bikes are bad enough, but you don't hear these things coming at speed, when you have limited mobility and are slow you can't get out the way quick enough.”<br/>Others have expressed concerns on the E-bikes being ‘dumped’ on the seaside town’s beaches...and even in the harbour sluice, echoing concerns first raised by Tenby Town Council’s Deputy Mayor Cllr Charles Dale when the idea was first touted to councillors last year.<br/><br/>Cllr Dale told his colleagues that, in principle it was a ‘great idea’ - however, he hoped that it worked out better than in Cardiff, where all the capital city’s bikes appeared to be seemingly stolen or vandalised, leading to the scheme ending.<br/>Ideas for potential locations for the E-bike bays to be cited in Tenby have been seemingly ignored too by PCC’s officers, with none of the suggested locations taken up, according to Tenby Town Council’s clerk Andrew Davies.<br/>“Back in December, when PCC informed us of the pilot they gave us a raft of suggested locations; and we met with Will Davies to get a bit more detail and suggested possible sites,” he said.<br/>“Other than the invite to the launch - that was the last we heard about the scheme.<br/>“None of the suggested Town Council locations have been taken up,” remarked Mr Davies.<br/>Locations the E-bikes are available from, include - North Beach car park; The Glebe; Heywood Lane; Tenby Leisure Centre; Salterns car park; Tenby multi-storey; South Beach car park; and Tenby Railway Station.<br/>One such ‘E-bike bay’ has popped up alongside Tenby’s historic town walls, the importance of which have been highlighted by town councillors in recent years.<br/>Tenby’s County Councillor for the South ward, Cllr Sam Skyrme-Blackhall is none too pleased with the location either, stating: “I do not like the look of the bikes in front of the Town Walls.<br/>“I do have concerns about the scheme in general. I know that they work very well in some places but I am not sure about in Tenby. <br/>“I am especially concerned about them within the Town Walls during pedestrianisation and other busy periods.”")
