Advantages: Cheap and easy to make Disadvantages: Only lasts 2 months
As my last medicinal herb recipe went down so well and after I was asked by quite a few people to do some more reviews I have decided to do a few more.
I started to grow my own herbs over the last few years and last year I started to experiment with different recipes, this year ill be trying this one when the herb grows.

Advantages: A superbly-written detective novel. Disadvantages: The ending is not as strong as the rest of the plot.

The story is dominated by the city itself, with the title coming from the lagoon in which Venice is situated ? the Laguna Morta. This isn't a book written by a casual visitor. Michael Dibdin lived and worked in Italy for four years and when he writes of the cities in which the Zen novels are set he brings them to life in a way which few travel books are ...
Advantages: Purpose designed Disadvantages: A bit fiddly
This is a boring but necessary review. Boring because you'd all much rather be reading about DVDs or perfumes; necessary because now the spring sunshine is streaming in, have you seen the state of your venetianblinds?
This is a purpose-designed gadget for a notoriously fiddly job. There are two parts to it: the brush and the anti-static fluid, so you get a twin-pronged attack on the wretched things. The brush looks like a huge, thin toothbrush with 6 "bristles". Each bristle rotates and is covered with a woolly yellow fibre (don't know what it is and the packet doesn't say). The fluid is in a 375ml spray bottle. Spray a little of the fluid on to the brush, then pull the trigger underneath the brush handle which pulls the bristles apart. Slide the bristles of the brush between the slats of the blind and release the trigger ...
