Advantages: allot of features & really cleans and spins washing well
Disadvantages: none

...I have owned the hotpoint WT960P washer for 3 mths now and, it is by far the best washer i have ever had and very easy to use. It comes with a very easy to understand manual has a 7kg drum which is great and LCD display, the size of the drum allowes you to put more washing in and, cuts down on the amount of times you have to use the washer. I have washed a double quilt in it and put it on a 1600 spin, i was amazed at how clean it was and was not that wet, i am able to put all my king size bedding in , ie cotton quilt cover, bottom sheet, valance sheet and 4 pillow cases all in one go. I had to do 2 loads in my old washer which was only a 5kg. It has many features. it is a cold fill only and has a max spin of 1600, and min spin 0f 400, this spin is great for those hand wash delicates,it also depends on the program you have... Read review

Advantages: Innovative product, reduces drying time, non-toxic, eco-friendly approach to softening
Disadvantages: Doesn't seem to be as effective as fabric conditioners at reducing static

...irritation to the skin. And finally “Bounce” appeared on the scene. All that was needed to keep one’s laundry fluffy and fresh was to add a sheet to the tumble-dryer. For a few pence a sheet, it did the job admirably. So why consider changing again? I mentioned that fabric conditioners had been having a rough ride in the press. Not everyone understands, for example, that fabric conditioners are not supposed to be used on towels. You might want a nice soft fluffy towel but if you use fabric conditioner to obtain it then you’ll also lose a certain amount of its absorbency. Dare I admit I didn’t know that myself until fairly recently? Then there’s the more headline-grabbing issue of the effect fabric conditioner has on fire-retardant properties. Better not to use it on those children’s nightclothes you so carefully selected to be flame... Read review

Advantages: Gives your bum a fresh wipe.
Disadvantages: If you don't watch your child they tend to use to much.

...We got some voucher's through the door to promote the Kandoo Toilet Wipes. It came in a large envelope with a little book for the children. Which they could colour and teach them how to use the toilet ,and making sure they wiped and flushed. It even got down to the details of washing their hands. And what also was great was there were four sheets of stickers. that they put into the book if they done a good job of going to the tiolet. Now the voucher's that we got ,were to get a FREE box refill with 60 wipes in it, £1.50 off a duo refill pack and £1 off pocket pack's that you are able to carry in your bag. Great if you really are stuck and have to use public toilet's . Which I really hate the idea and find the whole experience rather upsetting. We got our FREE box from Asda's but have noticed that you are able to get these in most... Read review

Advantages: These things will look new again.
Disadvantages: It's a bit messy.

...display. I saw a Lady was selling hand painted industrial saws. I bought one and asked her how she painted on metal. She told me and I suddenly had a hobby. There was a large area at the Pawn Shop where I could paint. On one side of the Shop was a Business that sharpened industrial Saws and on the other a Store that sold paint for homes. I had made Friends with the people who owned these Shops. Any Saw that wasn't picked up or was too rusty they gave to me for free. I always was given a 25% discount on the brushes, acrylic paint, the flat and glossy spray finishers. ~O THE SUPPLIES O~ Rust-O-Matic. Gesso, (a base for all paintings). Turpentine, (to clean your brushes). Small sheets of sand paper. A various sizes of brushes. A various sizes of sponges on a stick, (for different textures). A palate knife, (to use when you want your... Read review

Advantages: Cheap and Quick
Disadvantages: We don't know what acrylic they are using!!

...After moving from the north, I went in search of a nail technician locally. I had been used to my regular salon up north where they use Creative Nail Design products, have certificates, insurance and speak English. I entered the shop to enquire about the nail services that they offer. I was told by a Vietnamese speaking man that they do acrylic nails. When I enquired as to which brand they use...they repeated that they do acrylic nails. The man showed (as his English was very limited) me a pot of powder with no label at all. This is what I can only imagine is the acrylic powder that they use. On looking at some of the people having their nails done, I noticed that the technicians were using electric files on the natural nails. I use the term technician very loosely as I saw no certificates or insurance on the wall. I had heard... Read review

Advantages: healthy suppliment for your fingers and nails and aids acrylics
Disadvantages: one of the more expensive brands

...Acylic nails are becoming more and more popular these days but they can be responsible for damaging and drying out your nails by causing the nail to flake and break.Solar oil has been developed to apply to the nail to help prevent this damage it also helps keep the nail adhered to the the acrylic tip ,also being a oil it can reduce any cuts burns ect that you may have got from having your nails filed when having your acrylics put on in the first place. I decided to try out the product when i began doing acrylic nails, i have seen it advertised for 15ml being £8.50 upwards,i actually brought mine on ebay for £5.50.It comes in a bottle that looks like nail varnish and is applyed with a soft brush.As soon as you open the bottle you are met with a strong almondly smell rather like marzipan,it goes on smoothly and instantly has a smoothing...

Advantages: Great songs
Disadvantages: Couple of bad songs though

...This was Pulps last album before the world opened it's eyes one morning and saw Jarvis Cocker gyrating in a shopping trolley. Jarvis wasn't really in a shopping trolley of course, it was merely the video for Common People, the song that announced Pulp and their impending album, Different Class to the world. In my opinion though, this collection of bitter sweet stories backed by acrylic synths and guitars and crooned by the ever distinctive Jarvis Cocker is better. Apart from this being a very good album it is quite important, as my music collection goes. As it is… (Drum roll) the first CD I ever bought! That's right, prior to buying this album in 1990 and something I only owned a few (listened to) Pet Shop Boy tapes and a few other (unlisted to) tapes that my brain seems to have blocked out. Not only that but it brings back waves... Read review
