Sicilian Prince's 50-year mission to save Ferrari's prancing horse
The prancing Italian war horse that thundered to victory in the last major cavalry charge in Europe in 1942 and was immortalised by Ferrari, has returned home after 50 years, saved from extinction by a Sicilian Prince. Beneath the shimmering cliffs of Mount Alburno a herd of the royal breed of Persano, manes streaming in the morning sun, galloped into the scrubby fields of their ancestors. Riding with them was Prince Alduino Ventimiglia di Monteforte, 68, a former champion showjumper, who rescued the breed and negotiated their return to this military base and former royal hunting lodge.

7 things to know about getting in shape this spring
A s the clocks go forward tonight, many of us are deciding to up our fitness game. There's more time to exercise and, with summer on its way, rather more incentive to get toned. 'The sun comes out, spring is in the air and everyone wants to get outside and exercise,' says the chartered sports physiotherapist Paul Hobrough. 'But if you start increasing the amount you are doing too steeply, you are asking for problems in the way of injury, muscle soreness and fatigue.' So if you want a fitness reset, here's what the experts recommend.

Leeds United v Crystal Palace: Roy Hodgson's men run riot at Elland Road
Roy Hodgson span on his heels, his hands, which had spent most of the afternoon in his coat pockets, now waving freely in the air in a double-fist celebration. Inside ten dramatic minutes, his side had scored three times. That kind of remarkable turnaround in a game of football can even overtake the emotions of a 75-year-old. In that moment, in the 55th minute, came the reason Hodgson cannot let go of the game. He had wandered around Leeds city centre earlier in the day, pictured in a tracksuit. Now he was in charge of Elland Road.

Martyn Ziegler's Sport Notebook: Drunk tanks to become ‘sobering tents' for intoxicated World Cup fans in Qatar
Fans who become drunk and disorderly at the Qatar World Cup will be put into 'sobering tents' until they have recovered from the effects of the booze.It is understood that the sobering tents will be used as a softly-softly approach to dealing with fans who have become intoxicated and have been involved in minor incidents or where there are concerns for their safety.Organisers expect that with up to 200,000 international fans being in Doha, the capital, on any one day they will be faced with some challenging behaviour, and the sobering tents will be a way of dealing with drunk fans without them being arrested and put in jail.

The Queen sees Rio shanty towns during tour of Brazil
Republished from the Sunday Times: November 10, 1968By Richard WiggThe Queen saw the sights of Rio today, starting with a drive up to the Dona Marta Belvedere to look down on the Sugar Loaf Mountain and Guanabara Bay.Misty weather, with dark blue rain clouds hung over part of the city, however, preventing her from going to the Christ Monument on the Corcovado Peak. It was not the picture book view, but she saw all the city, the skyscrapers, old churches, the white beaches, the green, surrounding hills and the shanty towns of Rio's poor perched high up their sides.

‘I bought my childhood home — but I'm not sentimental'
I was born in London and went out to India for a year or two because my father, a soldier, was serving there. We came back to Britain at the beginning of the war. He was appointed adjutant of the Northamptonshire Yeomanry. We had a little cottage outside a place called Guilsborough. My father died in the war, and in 1945 my mother bought Cold Ashby Hall, also in Northamptonshire. I would have been about eight. She lived happily in it until she died in 2008, when I sold the house.Recently, to my surprise, it came on to the market again.

25 of the UK's best remote escapes
The best part of any holiday, they say, is the anticipation. Pass through an airport arrivals hall and you'd have to agree. With a few exceptions it's the same story on every returning face: deep circles under the eyes from a frantic schedule of must-do's by day and Aperol spritzes by night. Happily, there is a way to holiday that will leave you glowing, and it needn't involve a week of hydrotherapy, silent retreating, fasting or fell running. All you have to do is step off the grid.In recent years, off grid has become a catch-all phrase to describe anything from remote cottages and cabins without wi-fi to back-to-nature bell tents circled by dragonflies and wildflowers.

Kenyan tribes have taken the UK government to the European Court of Human Rights over allegations of land theft, eviction and torture in the dying days of British colonial rule.The Talai and Kipsigis are seeking £168 billion in compensation and an apology for historic crimes they say were committed in Kericho, western Kenya, one of the world's foremost tea-producing regions.'The UK Government has ducked and dived, and sadly avoided every possible avenue of redress,' said Joel Kimutai Bosek, one of the lawyers who filed the case on Tuesday.

Liquid gold: why Cognac is best in autumn
I was 90 minutes north of Bordeaux when time slammed on the brakes. The rolling quilt of vines, tinged with the first gold of autumn, melted into the twilight mists. A pair of swans seemed to pose on the Charente River, its quiet, dark waters lined with towering, languorous poplars. It was a scene straight from a 19th-century landscape painting; it was Charles Trenet's song La Douce France in spades.I was escaping a restoration project at home by heading to Cognac for a long weekend. I had not been to the town before, but the very word evokes a postprandial winter's evening by the fire, feet snug in tweedy slippers, holding a glass to the flickering light, twirling it gently to watch its tears run down the sides, then that lovely mouthful of warmth.

The White Lotus review — sex, sun and a very slow-burn plot in Sicily
The White LotusSky Atlantic/Now★★★★☆Made in the 80s Channel 4★★★☆☆Some of you are no doubt wondering when The White Lotus is going to become as good as last time. Well, as you saw from last night's second episode, not quite yet. It is taking its time, but things are warming up in the Sicilian heat. While the sex addict Dom (Michael Imperioli) is having lots of sex, even if he is paying thousands of euros for it, Harper (Aubrey Plaza) and Ethan (Will Sharpe) are having none.Why does Ethan keep avoiding it with his hot, young (if po-faced) wife? He prefers to 'take care of it' himself using porn, even though she's offering it on a plate.

Queen Elizabeth's reign in charts: how has Britain changed?
At the beginning of last week the country had one monarch and one prime minister, and by the end both had changed. If a lot can happen in seven days, think how much happened over the 25,783 days of the Queen's reign.She was a reference point for millions of people whose trust in her was consistent for decades, exceeding that of politicians.Since the early 1990s, the only prime minister to have higher satisfaction ratings than the Queen was Tony Blair, although this lasted less than a year.Despite her popularity with the public, Elizabeth became less common as a baby's name in England and Wales during her reign.

Ninety-two years ago Mahatma Gandhi set off on a four-week, 250-mile march to defy colonial salt taxes and start the civil disobedience movement that would bring about India's independence from Britain.Last week Rahul Gandhi, 52, set out on a march ten times longer in an effort to restore the fortunes of his ailing Congress party and break the spell cast by the Hindu nationalist prime minister Narendra Modi.The Congress Party is facing the prospect of permanent electoral oblivion after a string of election losses and defections.

Businesses understand the idea of a unique selling proposition: the one thing that makes your business better than the competition. The efforts of whole marketing and sales teams are built around this knowledge and companies struggle if they don't have one.USPs change over time as rivals adapt and customer needs evolve. They can also be challenged by external forces.

Seven of the most common travel mistakes to avoid in 2023
Travel roared back in 2022. The pandemic receded, there was an end to frustrating quarantines and testing, and it finally seemed possible to plan holidays that had been on ice since March 2020. But that roar turned into a whimper when the surge in traveller numbers came as a complete surprise to airlines and airports, who were seriously understaffed; cancellations and chaos followed. Lengthy Passport Office processing delays caused thousands of people to miss their holidays and border control problems at Dover caused tailbacks that jeopardised summer getaways.

However, it is the government's management of the economy since Britain left the European Union that is now angering industrial leaders.'There is evidence that the political instability of the last 12 months has damaged the competitiveness of the UK as a manufacturing location,'said Make UK of its survey published today.

Scamp, Glasgow review— the perfect place for a city centre lunch
A question I get asked regularly in this job is where to go for lunch in the city centre. Somewhere nice, close, quick and good value. Usually I pluck one or two tried and trusted spots out the hat — the Palmerston if you're in Edinburgh's West End or Cafe Gandolfi in Glasgow's Merchant City. Then my mind goes blank. Ultimately, my conclusion is as unchanging as the menu in your family-run neighbourhood Indian restaurant. City centre restaurants tend to be a bit disappointing. Happily, I now have an answer ready to go when it comes to Glasgow.

The teenager was allegedly 17 years old when the payments first began and their family filed a complaint to the BBC on May 19, according to The Sun. Neither the individual or the teenager was identified. In response to The Sun's report, the corporation said the information would be 'acted upon appropriately'.

The Blackening — and more of the week's films reviewed
The Blackening ★★★☆☆ The six friends who gather in a woodland house in this horror-comedy are black Americans, a key factor in the unpleasantness that befalls them. After finding a weird racist board game, they are tormented by an unseen psycho who eventually asks them to nominate the 'blackest' member of the group. Don't expect Tim Story's film to be as artistic as Jordan Peele's horror movies Get Out and Us . It's more knockabout, yet its salty, free-flowing dialogue makes sharp points. In cinemas, 15, 97min The Dive ★★☆☆☆ Two scuba-diving sisters swim into trouble in Maximilian Erlenwein's film.

It's still nice to be nice during hard times
A cost of living crisis is a tricky time to start a business with a sustainability steer. Just ask Fergus O'Sullivan, the 38-year old founder of Nice Rice, a new eco-friendly rice brand which recently launched into 259 Waitrose stores. 'It's a tricky time to launch and scale a brand full stop. And yes, particularly tricky if you're at a premium price point and your main thing is sustainability. A lot of people are getting a bit fed up with being preached to about sustainability,' said O'Sullivan.

What should I know before moving to a flexible office building?
Q: We're planning to double our team and can't all fit in our single-room office, even with some remote working days. I'm considering moving to a flexible office building nearby but what should I know? A: The concept of flexible workspace has been around for a while and by definition, it is space that allows a business to occupy immediately available, fully serviced offices which allow flexibility to grow or shrink their space over time. Sponsored In recent years hybrid working has markedly changed how and where we work.
