I don't have a baby, but if I did I'd definitely dress she or he up in one of these outfits from FancyDress.com. In fact, I've got a godson who I'm tempted to dress up in one of these not-remotely-scary outfits. The first six are available from FancyDress.com. They're not the only outfit I'm … [Read more...]
Which board game would Sherlock play?
Duh. It's obviously got to be Cluedo. Well, he was hardly going to have the sense of humour for a game of Cranium or Kerplunk, was he? Frankly, as much as I love Sherlock, I'd imagine he's the worst person to play a board game with. It was only a matter of time before the murder mystery … [Read more...]
Review: The Magic Wand. It’s for your face
By now, my family and friends are fairly used to seeing odd gadgets around my home. But the Magic Wand Facial Massager might just top the list of weird and wonderful review products in my possession. Not least because a few people have mistaken it for a decidedly more naughty vibrating gadget. Or, … [Read more...]
Beurer GS58 Driver: The personal scale heavyweight
As a classic yo-yo dieter, I've hopped on and off my fair share of personal scales over the years. In all honesty, very few of them are what I'd class as 'exciting'. Even fewer are stylish. Beurer is aiming to change all of that. The wellness and health brand has already impressed Europe with … [Read more...]
Fun ways to get involved with your community
Since the Olympics, it seems like we've all become a little bit nicer. Perhaps got to know our neighbours a bit more. Made more of an effort to get involved with the community and see what we can contribute. In fact, over 100,000 volunteers signed up to Keep The Flame Alive, the Olympic … [Read more...]
The Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver Universal Remote Control. We want!
Hey! Remember a year or two ago when the Harry Potter wand was released? And then the Magic Wand Remote arrived, which made you look like a badass wizard AND could change the TV channel? Yeah, I could never work that thing. I'm hoping my lack of skill (or ability to read instructions properly) … [Read more...]
Shop of the Week: My Wardrobe
The things I do for your people. This week, I spend hours browsing through My Wardrobe for the best pieces. What a chore*. For those that haven't heard of My Wardrobe, it's an online boutique full of the hottest designer pieces, often shortly after they've come off the catwalks of London, Paris, … [Read more...]
Harry Potter fans rejoice! New unseen footage
Hey Harry Potter fans! Bored of all the Twihards going a bit mental over the breakdown of Robert and Kristen's relationship? Has 50 Shades of Grey ruined the vamps and wolves series for you? Yearning for the days when things were simple, and the most outrageous thing the Harry Potter cast did was … [Read more...]
Shop of the week: Payumi
Something a little bit different this week. It's all about collecting money rather than spending it. Last year, I organised my sister's hen do, and spent ages chasing and collecting money from those who were attending. I'm sure some of you have had to do the same, and will understand how much of … [Read more...]
Review: The GoLondon DAB Radio
I'm a home worker, so more often that not a radio is playing somewhere in our house. My DAB radio (this beautiful PURE Orla Kiely ) has been rocking my world, both in looks and sound quality. But, as wonderful as it is, it's not the most portable radio; I certainly couldn't take it with me to the … [Read more...]
