Sometimes we are glad when someone comes. Sometimes we are not. When someone has gone, and we do not have to deal with them, again, we can say I’m so glad to see the back of her!

In rewilding Europe, letting nature do the work is no walk in the park

The Grand Barry nature reserve in France's southeastern corner is undertaking one of Europe's largest experiments in rewilding.

Got a big decision to make? Sleep on it

As we tuck ourselves into bed at night, little do we realize that we have the chance to get some extra work done while we sleep.

The unconscious mind has long been appreciated as a well of creativity from which some of our greatest artworks, scientific discoveries and inventions have been dredged up. But studies show it is also a powerhouse when it comes to processing unwieldy amounts of information.

When making complex decisions that require us to weigh multiple factors, some researchers believe we can benefit from learning to combine our conscious deliberations with unconscious processing.

The idea that we only use a small percentage of our brain's capacity is "completely ridiculous," according to Maarten Bos, who researches decision making and the unconscious mind at Harvard Business School. "We use our brain the whole time," he says.

• THAT'S RICH! Disgraced fund boss Neil Woodford who left investors £450million out of pocket is back in business

The meaning comes from the days when wearing a cap or hat was considered part of a man’s wardrobe when out of the house.

To show respect, you would take your hat off and hold it in your hand, especially when the person you are talking to is more senior in rank or holds a position of respect (the bank manager).

When used, it means:

• [a colleague who writes a report] She write a thorough and detail report and misses no details.
  
• [a famous person who throws a party] Everything is done to make it the best possible
• [a teacher] she prepares everything for her class before the event, anticipates what may go wrong and plans for this, and is organised with note taking and report writing.

However, saying I told you can make you appear arrogant, so tone is important.
