Turn On to Chanel 5

Advantages: A classic
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Now we're into December, the annual frenzy of consumerism that is Xmas is in full flow, and with it those shopping decisions that will determine whether you spend the festive season in the fun-house, or the dog-house. Here's my tip for the guys. If you can afford it, buy her CHANEL No 5. It's expensive, but it will tell her you think she's worth every penny! (which of course she is). It?s probably the most famous brand of perfume in the world, one that everyone has heard of, and she'll know you think she's special. CHANEL is French (there's a surprise), the French are well known for producing the best fragrances. COCO CHANEL revolutionized the fashion world in the 1920?s, and when she introduced Chanel no.5 in 1923, she was onto a winner with that as well. One of the good things about CHANEL is that it is timeless. This isn...

5 Inches of pleasure

Advantages: There After Eights and dark chocolate is good for your heart
Disadvantages: To expensive for what you get and oh so fattening

.... ----------------------------- History of After Eights ----------------------------- After Eight was launched in 1962. If a year's production of After Eight was laid flat, it would cover an area equivalent to 328 football pitches. Now thats a lot of chocolate even for me...lol. The launch of After Eight was unique since products are normally launched to match a niche in the market. However After Eight was launched before the niche was found, it was responsible for creating the category of the "After Dinner Mint" within the confectionery market. --------------- Packaging --------------- Well as I said it comes in a very distinctive silvery grey tube. Just over 5 1/2" long. On the outside is a picture of 5 of the straws looking very very tasty. A green band also runs around the tube with the words Nestle After Eight in white with the gold and white After Eight...

Four And A Half Inches Slip Right In

Advantages: See op
Disadvantages: See op

...– Hansel’s penis. To legally wed in East Germany, he must undergo a physical inspection. One botched sex change (more on that later) later, and the couple are in the land of the free. Hansel, now using her mother’s name – Hedwig – ends up freer than he expected, when Luther decides to divorce her. Betrayed and alone in her trailer park home, she starts out on the road to musical fame. She meets a young man who she falls for deep, who becomes her musical partner too. Her songs become an outlet for her strange story, but the life of a transsexual is never a smooth ride... * * * * * The plot is pretty thick for a musical, and never really serves as a means to get from one place to another, but rather as a retrospective. Hedwig and her band – The Angry Inch – play most of the numbers in a small club in...

Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.5 GHz - 17" TFT

Advantages: nice screen, good battery life, fast specs
Disadvantages: large size (price?)

...Apple mac-books, where to start... ok, so to start, it is an apple, that means you get a solid quality product and on the whole very good customer are. this particualar apple is deffinatly more suited to being a media center than other laptops. At first glance you realise that it is a fairly large laptop, this allows for a big screen, which being an apple ffers clear vivid displays, unfortunatly the big screen increases the overal size and also uses more battery, however, the 4.5 hour yattery is still very good for an entertainment laptop. The laptops technical specs include a very fast 2.5 ghz dual core proccesor which is very fast, the dual core allows it to tackle multiple tasks quicly as well as increasing the overall speed of the laptop. The price is quite steep however, but i believe, if given the money, it is...

Can you think of 5 places to dab it

Advantages: Smells wonderful, suits any occasion and most people, samples easily available
Disadvantages: A little costly

...I?m not a big perfume wearer, I often investigate new perfumes, but rarely find one I like, and there are just two perfumes which I like to keep in the house at all times. One is Rive Gauche and the other is Chanel No.5 Of these two, the Chanel is without a doubt my favourite. Evening or daytime, casual or formal Chanel No.5 works for me. Chanel No.5 has been around for a long time. Coco Chanel (famous fashion designer of the 1920?s) introduced this perfume to the world in 1923. I use it, my mother uses it, and I recently found out that my Grandmother used it for many years until she died too. It is one of those timeless perfumes, and dress a girl in modern Jeans and Jacket, 1920?s flapper outfit or Victorian crinoline and I believe this perfume would not smell out of place. ***The Look*** The Distinctive linked C?s of Chanel...

A 5 inch potted monster

Advantages: cheap to feed!
Disadvantages: temperamental

...might want to risk it. The whole plant isn't likely to grow more than 13cms (5 inches)across anyway. Don't torment you little monster plant by poking the traps to make it shut. Each trap can only open and close about 6 times and the plant has to make new traps after this. If its putting energy into this it hasn't got energy to stay healthy, unless you are lucky. If you want to feed your VFT you will need to catch some flies and other insects. If you give it a bit of ordinary meat it will die. People often claim that you can feed these plants on minced beef or a bit of left over meat, but you can't. The meat will rot and kill the plant. The 'meal' you feed your plant shouldn't be bigger that about one third of the leaf trap or it will rot and kill the plant. Your plant will eat flies, slugs and even spiders. Don't feed it anything...

Suspenders, Leather And 5 Inch Wedges

Advantages: Comfortable and fun to wear
Disadvantages: None of them fit now

...a giggle at some of the memories and surprised myself by what I’ve dredged up. I'll end by adding my least favourite fashion item of all time. WEDGES I was in my late teens when they came out and succumbed to 5 inch wooden ones. They were uncomfortable clod hopping things that I would never volunteer to wear again. Slightly rounded at the front and underneath the heel, they rocked when you stood still. I went over on my ankles every time that I wore them and it's a wonder I didn't break them. The only funny memory that I have of them is walking drunkenly up and down Haworth main street. Very steep and cobbled it was hard on the butt when one of us girls lost our manoevering abilities and usually pulled at least one other of us down with them....

Figures For Fans

Advantages: Cheap, Great for collections
Disadvantages: A lot to buy

...well that they decided to make little five inch figures, resembling their key features! ***** There are many figures from the latest three series' of Doctor Who! ♥Autons (pack of two) The autons come from the first episode, Rose, in Series 1. They are plastic shop window dummies controlled by the evil Nestene Conciousness! I dont have these figures, but I think I might buy them. They look quite like the real ones in the episode. I think it is good that they come as two in a pack, as it makes them more life-resembling! ♥Rose Tyler Rose (played by Billie Piper) is the first character we see in Doctor Who in the first series, and goes on to becoming the Doctor's companion. She is a very bubbly and emotional girl, who would not leave the Doctor's side no matter what the circumstances were. I hunted high and low for this figure as...

Oz Record Alloy Wheels

Advantages: lightweight, stylish
Disadvantages: expensive

...decals written on one of those spokes. These are 5 stud wheels and can be bought in various fitments all though you might need spacers to make them fit correctly, you may also need arch work doing so they do no rub and catch on the arches of your car. I picked these wheels as I like the Oz design of wheels they are a well known brand and make good quality alloy wheels they are not known for the paint to peel off or to go rusty like other brands of alloy wheels. I chose this specific design because I liked the style and thought they would suit the car I currently own. They are also a lightweight alloy wheel so this can also help improve the performance of your car. They tyre size to suit these wheels will depend on which size wheel you have but tyres for all of the sizes of these alloy wheels should be readily available from your local...

Review of Oz Record (16 inch) 5-stud

Chanel No. 5 - eternal Femininity.

Advantages: sensual and feminine floral hart, good staying powder
Disadvantages: aldehydes - not everyone is used to this smell; can be found old-fashioned

...Chanel No. 5 will always remain a controversial perfume. Although used and praised for decades it's still a love or hate fragrance. I think it's because of aldehydes, the most important constituents of this fragrance. They possess a waxy, fatty smell that often makes think on washed and dried clothe. Aldehydes are found in nature (for example in a citrus peel), but never in amounts used in Chanel No. 5. That makes this smell a bit unnatural from one side, but it also gives an interesting exotic twist. In my opinion EDP is much softer than EDT version - the aldehydes are less sharp and the floral bouquet is more prominent. On my skin it starts with a fresh citrus note that slightly fades into a floral hart of orange blossom, rose and jasmine. An ultimate feminine bouquet, but modernized with waxy sharpness of the aldehydes...
