All In One Piece - Really?

Advantages: Fun to read humorous story with an element of real life to it!
Disadvantages: None

...All In One Piece by Jill Murphy *I thought that I would review this children's book, as a tribute to all those parents who understand just how difficult it is, to get ready for a rare night out.* ***What's it all about?*** Well, this is another in a series of books about the Large family - a family of elephants and the evening when Mr and Mrs. Large get to venture out, to the office-dinner dance. Of course the children can't go and so grandma comes to babysit. Granny arrives at tea time and the children are bathed and ready for bed. Granny lets them do some painting, whilst mum and dad go upstairs to get ready in peace. However? Luke watches his dad shaving and ends up getting the foam on his trunk. Dad tells him to go away.

All for one and one for all

Advantages: takes all symptoms away,really works
Disadvantages: some people may find it pricey

...Coughs and colds affect everyone at some point in their lives. Some people are unlucky enough to have one quite a few times a year. Luckily I aren't one of those people and, although I complain about being ill and coming down with something, the reality is I'm usually properly ill with a cough or a cold once, if that, a year. So what can you do when you do come down with one? What product can you buy to take the symptoms away? Well I found the answer was in my local corner shop selling for £3.09 named 'Beechams All In One Syrup'. *** What is Beechams All in One and how does it work? *** Taken straight from the instructions (because I couldn't word it better myself), this is a quick description of what this syrup actually is: "Each 20ml dose of syrup contains paracetamol PH Eur 500mg. Guaiphenesin PH Eur 200mg and Phenylephrine...

Review of Beechams All in One

All in One

Advantages: Easy to apply, natural looking
Disadvantages: Not enough colours, changes colour from dry to wet

...when it's wet. It's really easy to apply by just getting the foundation on the sponge and sweeping it over your face, blending from the middle of your face outward. To apply it wet I find I need to wet the sponge a few times during application because it dries out very quickly and then the foundation goes back to going on as a powder. If you use it dry it's just like putting on a pressed powder but it just gives a little more coverage. It feels really lightweight and you can't really feel it once you've finished applying it. It gives fairly good coverage, covering all but the darkest blemishes, but if you have any dry skin it sticks to it and makes it look awful. I'd prefer to be able to use it this way as it gives a lighter, more natural finish, but as I already said, the colour is darker when you apply it this way, so I have to use it...

One For All

Advantages: one for all, combing different remotes
Disadvantages: doesn't always transfer everything you want

...This stylish yet practical remote is simple and easy to use. Its slick, black, polished layout gives it an undeniable appeal. It is essentially just a remote, however it can offer so many different functions, that it is a must for anyone with a plethora of digital equipment such as; Televisions, VCR's. DVD's, Satellite boxes, and even Amplifiers. From my experience it saves you a lot of hassle in finding all the different remotes for each appliance and is very simplistic to use, and set up, with a set code in the instruction manual for every different imaginable piece of electronic kit, and their retrospective makes. This is what makes the One For All unique as it really is for absolutely everything. The set up is again not anywhere near as hard as what you would think. All you need is the remote itself and then easily work through...

All in one piece? Possibly!

Advantages: Good story and illustrations
Disadvantages: none

...All in One Piece' by Jill Murphy is a really fun read for little children and parents alike. Jill Murphy is quite a prolific children's writer and is well known for her 'Worst Witch' series of books. She has also written a number of books about a family of elephants, called the Large family,and this book is part of that series. This particular one was written in 1987 and has certainly stood the test of time! Although they are elephants, the Large family take on all the characteristics and traits of any normal family. There are six members of the family - Mum, Dad, Luke, Laura, Lester and the baby. In this story Mum is desperately looking forward to a well earned night out with her husband - I know the feeling! - they certainly don't come round often enough when you have small children! Granny has arrived early to babysit so that Mum...

Beechams ALL IN ONE.

Advantages: do relieve aches, pains and a cough. Loosens phlegm nicely! Non-drowsy
Disadvantages: Didnt clear my blocked nose, cost me a fortune, took a while to kick in

...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beechams ALL IN ONE. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Three days ago I was boasting about how I am the only one in my University flat who didn't get 'freshers flu'. The day after, I woke up feeling absolutely awful! I had a full-blown cold! Feeling very sorry for myself I wandered down the medical aisle of Asda looking for something to ease my aches and pains, blocked nose and cough. I saw various flu remedies and finally picked up a packet of Beechams All In One Tablets as they claimed that they would fix a headache, blocked nose, sore throat and chesty cough. They also claimed to be non-drowsy. The tablets came in boxes of 8 or 16 so I grabbed the pack of 16 tablets which cost me just over £4 (not cheap compared to the alternatives!!!). These tablets contain three active ingredients - 250mg Paracetamol to...

Never Say "Never Again" - HP C6380 All-In-One

Advantages: Very versatile. excellent colour printing, good price (£89)
Disadvantages: Ponderous software install. Longevity question mark hanging over it

...Suddenly, everything?s ?coming up printers? in the BNibbles? household, and I?ve also updated what I thought of the HP C5180, the predecessor to my new HP C6380. Having just written about my new Samsung laser printer, I guess it was only a matter of time before Argos, the God of Laminated Catalogues decreed that my other printer should pack up on me just when I was already having an 'expensive' month. My first 'all-in-one', an HP C5180 had given sterling service for the first 10½ months of its first year in my possession until sadly it developed a fault that couldn't be cleared. A month later, after much to-ing and fro-ing with HP's Support Desk (was it still under warranty or wasn't it, the manufacturing date being yonks before the purchase date), I was delivered a 'refurbished' replacement (it being by now an obsolete...

A nice All-in-One HP F2280 colour printer

Advantages: Great value for money, easy to use, prints out quickly, nice clear and sharp images
Disadvantages: The colour ink does not last all that long

...I bought this printer only recently and I was lucky enough to get this on sale in clas ohlson for just £18 but you have to buy the USB cable separately and I bought mine for £6. Ever since I bought this great HP DeskJet all in one printer about 2 weeks ago I have not stopped using it. It has and does everything you could possibly ask for in a printer. When I first purchased this printer it came with both black and colour ink so I was well chuffed especially as I know that the colour inks can be a bit dear. I like the fact that the printer can multitask, print, scan and do photocopy. The installation process took only about 15 minutes to install and the process was really quite straight forward along with the help of the easy to follow instructions that is provided. Absolutely love the look of this printer as it look very stylish...
