Self-build is a phrase that is getting ever-popular in the housing market. Wait up a minute, what exactly is “self-build”? It’s a property you build yourself. It doesn’t have to mean LITERALLY by yourself, but you put yourself in the position as planner, foreman, architect of your home and allow skilled workers do the job you tell them to do. “Self-build” is pretty much recession-proof due to the relatively low costs involved (relative to buying a home) - in fact, the army of “self-builders” in the UK outnumbers the amount of properties being developed by any professional developer. The purpose of self-build is to make a house to your exact specifications, not a boiler-plate design that commercial developers use.

I know what you’re thinking: “I haven’t a clue about how to build a house”. The pleasant news is that self-build doesn’t have to involve you with the physical aspects of the home development (in fact, only around 5% of self-builders actually take a role in the actual building of the property). Even the design aspects are often finalised by a professional designer. Self-build, more often than not, is about you articulating (in plain English), what you require to the property designer - who then creates a plan based on your requirements. This design then becomes the blueprint the builders work to. Easy, eh? You don’t need to have any proactive involvement in self-build. Having said all that, the DIY fan can use self-build as a chance to save some dosh by contributing toward the tasks of self-build they have experience in - it’s your shout as to how much involvement you want during the build.

Self-build sounds pricy, but in reality it’s more often than not cheaper than buying an already developed home of identical specifications (roughly a third cheaper). That’s not all, self-built houses fetch a good price too - up to 25% higher than the actual build cost, so you can view self-build also as a means to invest your money, rather than just a home to live in

You must make sure the team of workers you select are 100% competent and that they build well together. For sure, you will need builders with experience of some rather potentially dangerous machinery used in construction, such as concrete cutting chainsaws, block and slab splitters, power / disc cutters, Floor saws, and wood saws. Skills bring safety to the project too.

This article is just an introduction to the concept of constructing a home by yourself, and I hope it will inspire those of you who are perhaps a little scared by such projects. It needn’t be time-intensive, and you won’t need house building / designing skills, but hire carefully, and you will need to cautiously work out the overall cost of the project.

One of the reasons why personalized ringtones are enjoying such an immense popularity all over the world is because of the ability to actually bring your personality to your phone. With personalized ringtones you can immediately show to other people what kind of person you are the moment they hear your ringtone. If you are the goofy type of person then you’d have one of those funny songs, a hilarious joke or a funny sound effect as your ring tone. If you are the romantic type then love songs would usually be your ringtone. The adventurous people may select rock or techno music as their ringtones. Of course, anime fans will definitely get anime theme songs as their ringtones.

One of the more popular ringtone types that most mobile users prefer to use are ringtones based on TV themes. Choosing tv theme ringtones present a different side of a person’s personality - one that loves or is a fan of nostalgia.

Why would nostalgia be associated with TV themes anyway? It is simple, really. We are a generation that has grown up with the television set as a constant companion of our lives. It is an ubiquitous part of any household and it is also a regular source for free entertainment. We have practically grown up with the television blaring its programs in our households and as years progress, there are TV shows that we have come to associate with either a certain aspect of our life or particular point in our growing up years. This is attitude is actually not strange but a very normal kind of behaviour, in fact just observe a group of friends who grew up during a particular era - the 70’s or the 80’s for example - and you will notice that their conversations would usually drift towards what they would usually watch on TV. The more obscure or least popular the show the better because it helps transport them to that time when they were still care-free children.

The allure of TV theme ringtones is thus a very understandable phenomena. It not only brings us pleasant memories of the past or of our childhood - it also gives people who have common likes or grew up at the same time an anchor towards establishing a conversation. This is quite easy to prove. Just put a ringtone of a TV show that you grew up with, let’s say the classic A Team TV theme or the funky Knight Rider theme, on your mobile phone. Now let it ring in a crowd and you will notice that people who are same age as you are would whip their heads and look in your general direction trying to trace who owns the ringtone. If you are lucky enough someone may even approach you and strike up a conversation! But of course reminiscing about the good old times is best done among friends. It is during this time that the conversation runs wild. Discussions about their favourite theme songs will usually mutate to talk about their favourite movies during that time, even their favourite snacks! Truly, nostalgia is a great way of touching base with friends.
