    5 Stars Secret of the Gods Review with images 21/08/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very vesatile in cooking, good for your skin, health, and helps you live longer

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Some people may not like the taste.

    Apart from beer and wine the only other liquid that is consumed in large quantities in my household is olive oil. I love everything about olive oil - the gnarled trunks of the trees, the colour of the leaves and the fruit, the smooth texture and the taste. It is a very important substance in our family and if you bare with me I will tell you all I know about olive oil. It all started about 23 years ago when my husband's parents bought four hectares of land in the valley of Monchique in Portugal. They had been searching for land to buy in Spain but for what they wanted the prices were too high ... more

    2 Stars THE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST Review with images 27/08/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A True Professional.....

    Disadvantages Disadvantages .....That You'd Be Needing One In The First Place.

    Having recently published a new "from the Sharp End" cafe review, spurred on by a friend here on Ciao, I have taken the opportunity to refresh this rather older one from the summer of 2007, the time of the workplace smoking ban - since when, quite literally, the atmosphere in our workplace at least, has never been quite the same again...... A very warm welcome to any of you who have not previously read a RICHADA café piece, there are actually quite a few of them in my portfolio here, but they have slipped so far down the list that a lot of you will either not know what I do for a living, or ... more

    1 Star ONE FAT LADY ! OBESITY 03/11/2009
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages There are no advantages to being fat

    Disadvantages Disadvantages See review

    OBESITY After reading some wonderful reviews on this subject, starting with Hisheyness's wonderful 'Confessions of a Recovering Fat Man', and after promising totalserenity after reading her wonderful 'WORDS 'ARE' WEAPONS', I have finally plucked up enough courage to write my own review on my fight with the dreaded weight. Apologies it's a long one!! I am obese! Now you can cover that with as many euphemisms as you want - 'chubby', 'curvy', 'big boned, 'pleasantly plump', 'plus size' - I am just very much over weight. And I hate it! WHAT IS IT LIKE BEING FAT? It is feeling that you are held ... more

    4 Stars Music: My Obsession 16/01/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Music suits every mood you may have, there are so many bands out there

    Disadvantages Disadvantages People don't look beyond MTV or Radio 1

    -----Music: My Obsession----- After reading eddybennet's review on this and reading he had a lot of artists mentioned that I loved as well (such as Rick "GOD" Wakeman), and decided I wanted to join in. I have done a lot of these review things lately, but I think they're great fun, and they give you all a bit more of an insight to me. Plus I'm on a diet, so no choccy reviews for another week or so :-P -----How Many CDs Do You Own?----- Not as many as my dad who has so many 1000s of them. I'm probably between 500-1000 though. That includes singles, though I don't think I have many singles (most ... more

    Advantages Advantages None..... I hope

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You've lost me!

    **Please note that names, apart from mine, have been changed** I took this down for a while, but now it's back! Carry on leaving messages for it :-p --------------------------- FAT-AL TONY MASTER OF his prime, Anthony "Fat Tony" Ashfield was tragically and viciously murdered today in what can only be described as an act of criminally insane violence. A row broke over a simple message left in a guestbook, that quickly evolved into a devious plot involving world domination, murder, and possible burglary. A young girl by the name of "Scott" is being held at this time, with various charges being ... more
