Paul Chambers, originally from Lincolnshire and who used to specialise in building military flight simulators, was inspired to create the unique house because his wife, Sarah (pictured bottom right in the kitchen) did not enjoy living near noisy neighbours. The DIY house is situated 62 miles from civilisation in the nearest city, Newcastle, and includes a cosy living room (bottom left) and a wood burner made from a Chubb safe. In their new home they are truly at one with nature, and all sorts of wildlife can often be seen hanging around on their premises. He said: 'The early years were a major test, I doubted Sarah would want to stay in the Bush, but it has turned out to be her natural environment.'

Meghan Markle dined with one of her 'closest friends in the world', Markus Anderson, on Friday at one of their favorite spots, Cafe Boulud, inside the Four Seasons in Toronto. Markus is understood to have set up a date between the TV star, 35, and the British Royal, with whom he is also on friendly terms, the Mail on Sunday reported this weekend. Meghan and Harry are believed to have carried on their trans-Atlantic love affair for several months after Harry bombarded her with texts. Best friend Markus is a consultant for the Soho House Group and former global membership director at the exclusive club where he worked his way up from being a waiter to the right-hand man of founder Nick Jones. Markus Anderson has been part of Meghan's inner circle for a number of years and has several photos with her on social media. This summer, they jetted to Madrid with a third friend, fashion designer Misha Nonoo (pictured bottom left with the pair).

A British mother is encouraging other women to consider breastfeeding older children by posting videos of her feeding her four-and-half-year old son. Sophie Emma Rose, 40, is originally from Blackpool, but now lives in Chiang Mai in Thailand with partner Danny, and son, Shaye. Ms Rose said her mission is to 'normalise breastfeeding older kids' and 'wanted to expose it until it becomes part of normal reality'. Ms Rose's YouTube channel 'Sophie's Joy Breastfeeding Mama' has amassed more than eight million views. As well as breastfeeding Shaye on demand, the 40-year-old regularly shares a bed with him and home schools him.

NEW DailyMail.com has discovered the chilling picture of a woman walking through serial killer Todd Kohlhepp's farmland (right) that he took and posted on his Facebook page. The image shows a woman walking through his 96-acre property and seemingly photographed without her knowledge. The woman in the purple dress has blonde hair and is walking away from or past the suspect, whose land was open to public access until he installed a wire fence around the entire perimeter. No clue was given by the suspected serial killer of her identity, but an observer posted underneath it after his arrest: 'Could this be one of his victims?' The woman who discovered the photograph said she believed the police would be interested in it as the identity or sex of two of the victims buried on his land (inset) have yet to be established.

Tyrell Cobb's former stepfather Matthew Scown, who is charged with the four-year-old boy's manslaughter, has been denied bail at Brisbane Magistrates Court. He muttered 's***' as the magistrate delivered his decision. Tyrell, 4, left, was found covered in dozens of injuries and vomiting green slime before he died in 2009. The boy's mother Heidi Strbak (right) has also been charged with manslaughter over his death.

Apple has banned the Rich Kids app from all of its devices to stop swaggering socialites from using it to boast about their lifestyles. The app was created by Juraj Ivan and Michal Harustiak in October and members were charged just under $2,000 a month to post their photos exclusively. Mr Ivan and Mr Harustiak admitted they were inspired by the 'Rich Kids of Instagram' who showed off to the world their private jets, yachts in the Caribbean and the champagne-fuelled best parties.

The AWOL player, who reportedly fled the scene in Mexico amid chaotic scenes as the ref was receiving medical attention, was named locally as Ruben Rivera Vazquez. The official, whose body was covered with a small blue tarpaulin which left his feet and part of his right leg exposed until a judge arrived and let undertakers remove him, was named as Victor Trejo. The player blamed for the ref's death was representing a Sunday league side called Canarios-Roja Gomez. In Brazil, police with riot shields had to protect another ref when Antonio Ferreira tried to assault him again following his sending off.

Pixie Skase, now 76, (pictured left at Prahran Market in 2009) was married to billionaire and con-artist Christipher Skase and lived exiled in Spain for 17 years after the family company Qintex collapsed. Mr Skase (right) had personal debts of $172 million. In the 1980s, the socialite would splash her wealth on art, clothes, Brisbane property (inset) and events including a $1 million five-day party for the opening of the couple's Port Douglas resort. It is a far cry from her modest life in Toorak, Melboune, where she now rents a two-bedroom apartment for $560-a-week from a friend.

Helmet camera footage shows the moment a white van driver launches into a furious rant as a group of motorcyclists pull out in front of him at a roundabout. The man follows the group into a car park and tells one motorcyclist he should not have pulled out in front of him. In an explosive rant, he tells the biker to be aware of what is happening and that he has a responsibility to other road users. The footage was shot in the UK.

The face, which resembles the famous ghost from the 2002 horror film The Ring, seemed to appear in the middle of the mysterious picture which was taken at the Newsham Park Hospital in Liverpool (right). Host Phil Barron, 45, was leading the 32-strong group at the former Victorian orphanage when he unwittingly snapped the photograph (left). The orphanage dates back to the Victorian era and was opened in 1874 to support and educate the orphans of British seamen. Legend has it that conditions there were harsh and cruel and after being converted into a hospital it's now home to a maze of corridors, wards, accommodation blocks, chapel and even a morgue.

Weeks after Arshad Khan, 18, set the internet alight with a broody picture at a market in Islamabad, a pretty Nepali vegetable seller now has social media users swooning. Kusum Shrestha, 18, was photographed carrying crates of tomatoes at a local market, and it has gone viral. One fan has suggested the now-famous tea merchant and veg seller would make the perfect couple.

Dog owners have been sharing pictures of their pets causing mischief, from pulling funny faces to knocking things over. One told how his golden retriever turned green after rolling around on the grass. Clockwise from top left: one pooch got himself into a twist while playing on the sofa; a dog pulls an unattractive face after falling asleep; one owner claims he's found his dog's perfect Tinder pose; DJM30W walked in to find his Siberian huskes 'drowning' their brother in the toilet bowl; one man claimed to have found a 'loose seal' in his bathroom; this retriever was dubbed 'doggosaurus Rex' in this hilarious photograph.

Svetlana Zakharova, from the Russian capital Moscow, is shown on a tropical beach, her modesty shielded by no more than a palm tree in one image (left). The 45-year-old clothes boutique owner (right and inset), a leading Moscow fashionista and socialite, is married to deputy defence minister Timur Ivanov (top left with Zakharova), four years her junior. An MP has since called for Ivanov's boss - defence minister Sergei Shoigu, one of Vladimir Putin's closest allies - to reprimand the senior military official over his wife's pictures.

This is the shocking moment a man was brutally attacked by a thug outside a McDonald's. Shocking CCTV footage shows a man being knocked to the ground and repeatedly punched as he lay helpless on the ground in a car park outside the fast food restaurant. The vicious attack - which took place in Lanyon, south of Canberra - was only brought to a halt after a brave bystander intervened by flashing their headlights. Police are now hunting down the pair seen in the surveillance footage, which was taken at about 1am on October 8.

Rescuers say they found a 'needle in a haystack' after plucking a solo diver (main) out of the Pacific Ocean, more than 50 kilometres from where he went missing a day earlier. The 68-year-old man, who was lost at sea off the north Queensland coast, is recovering in hospital with mild hypothermia. He had been missing for 15 hours and the first thing he did upon being found was shake his rescuer's hand. Rescuer Alan Griffiths (inset) told Daily Mail Australia his team had only stumbled upon the missing diver as they tracked back to refuel after 90 minutes of searching.

A 13-year-old boy in India whose head was hanging at a 180-degree angle has died just eight months after life-changing surgery. Mahendra Ahirwar (pictured, left) suffered from a rare condition called congenital myopathy. After the operation he was able to go to school (right) and enjoyed a relatively normal life. His mother, Sumitra, said today: 'I will miss him. I've no idea how I'll cope with the loss. He's with God now. I hope he is able to find peace. He's had a painful life. I hope wherever he is, he is pain free.' She said: 'He enjoyed his new life for just eight months. I wish he could have lived longer to see more.'

Lee Moffitt, 26, from Orlando, Florida, left, breastfeeding daughter Amaryliss, says breastfeeding creates a special bond. As well as feeding her niece Terra, one, Lee has also nursed the children of several friends. They include infants she has babysat for and babies of women she has met at a group for local mums. Breastfed by her mother, Michelle Cannon, 48, until her fifth birthday, Lee always felt it was the most natural way of nurturing children. Lee is pictured, inset, breastfeeding daughter Amaryliss, 13 months, and friend's baby EJ, and, right, with her family.

The astonishing TV which showed marine iguanas attempting to outrun a knot of racer snakes on Fernandina Island was labelled 'the stuff of nightmares' by viewers as they hid behind the sofa. Hatchlings could be seen emerging from the sand of the Galápagos island in the Pacific Ocean in June for what is the snakes' best feeding opportunity of the year. The footage on BBC1 showed some iguanas outrun the snakes to safety by the sea while others were caught before the snakes wrapped themselves around them. When the crew saw the snakes for the first time, they were too shocked to film - and host Sir David Attenborough had never seen anything like it either, it was claimed. Among the millions of viewers captivated by the footage shown at 8pm last night was Olympic rower Will Satch, who described it as a 'real life horror film'.

In his 20s, Oestrike met and entered a seven-year engagement with a Canadian woman, who, according to his sister Barbara Miling took advantage of this 'generosity' and emptied his bank accounts and 401(k).

From an ornate cane concealing a sword to a five-bladed flogger, the Transportation Security Administration has shared photos of the shocking items that travellers across the US have tried to take on planes. Pictured left are skull-adorned throwing knives seized from a carry-on bag at Chicago O'Hare Airport, right is a replica suicide vest discovered at Virginia's Richmond Airport and inset is a gas mask confiscated at Miami International Airport because it features replica bullets.

A shocking video has emerged of a white South African forcing a black man, who is crying out in terror, into a coffin and trying to put the lid on (pictured). The white man - believed to be a farmer - can be heard speaking in Afrikaans and Zulu. A South African woman, who watched it on YouTube, said: 'The guy putting the lid on the coffin tells the man inside the coffin, to talk (he probably has information about something that happened on their farm) so this is their way of trying to get information out of him.'

This is the horrifying moment a huge glass door came crashing down over a three-year-old girl. The girl was seen following her grandmother into a shopping mall in China, completely oblivious to the scene behind her (top left and right). And despite the girl's grandmother's best efforts to stop the inevitable, the door smashed the toddler to the floor (bottom left and right).

Amateur photographer Keith Jones has blended images of the height of Beatlemania in Liverpool with pictures of the city today to create a fascinating look at how things have changed over the past 50 years. The images include shots of the Fab Four outside the iconic Cavern Club (top right) and posing in Derby Square (bottom left). Other shots show fans lining up to see the band perform (top left) and how parts of the city such as Ranelagh Place (bottom right) seem to have remained the same despite the time gap.

While much of the world is the modern traveller's oyster, there are regions you can't roam freely. Whether that be the mysterious lands of North Korea or Syria, currently in the throes of war. But in many of these places, extraordinary beauty lurks behind the tightly-drawn curtains, along with the promise that some day they'll be free to explore again. With a few exceptions, all the magnificent destinations showcased here fall under the FOC's red zone - areas where 'all travel' is expressly advised against. Said notable exceptions include Norway's Domesday Vault (inset), a heavily guarded cavern built under the Arctic snow which contains seeds from almost every nation on earth to be retrieved in the case of an global catastrophe. Good luck getting a peek in there. Pictured clockwise from top left: Congo's beautiful region of Likouala, Bolivia's 'Death Road', the Karakoram highway that links China with Pakistan and Yemen.
