A Touch of Olde World Charm

Advantages: A lovely quaint cottage
Disadvantages: You need to pick your times to visit,

...~~Ann Hathaway?s Cottage~~ We spent a wonderful couple of days in Stratford looking at the lovely old properties in Shakespeare?s town of Stratford; which just happens to be the second most visited town in England, the first being London; it actually has in excess of five million visitors a year and I am now one of them. During our two days we visited all five of Shakespeare?s houses and in this review I want to tell you about the house that belonged to Ann Hathaway and her family; Ann was (for those that may not know) the wife of William Shakespeare, they married in 1582. ~~The Cottage~~ The cottage is just a few minutes outside Stratford in a small village called Shottery; it was a working farm right up to the 19th century and has been in the Hathaway family for over 300 years. It is currently owned by...

FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

St Annes NOT Lytham

Advantages: lovely
Disadvantages: rubbish when it rains

...Before I start there is one thing I need to get straight Lytham and St Annes are two different places with 2 different town centres and I am reviewing St Annes and not Lytham. (ok it is now a single borough but the people that live in these places see them as separate towns) If you put either St Annes or Lytham into google etc you will get information on both Lytham and St Annes The full name is St Annes-On-the-Sea which is shortened to St Annes . A Bit of History Colonal Clifton the squire of Lytham wanted to develop the area known as 'West End' (That part is now St Annes) All there was in 1870 was Dunes, a railway from Blackpool to Lytham and some farms and cottages that paid rent to the Clifton's. They had seen the good of Lytham as a resort so saw the dunes as somewhere they...

Ann summers- A saint for a sin

Advantages: Good stuff- great selction
Disadvantages: price at times...

...Honestly, What would i do without Ann Summers in my Life? I can honestly say i do not have a clue! Although they are rather expensive their products are worth the money! Not only does Ann sumers provide a wide range of producst; Vibrators, Dildos, Erotic books, Kinky Role Play Costumes, lubes and kinky underwear. However, the staff are always pleased to see you and create a warm welcoming as soon as you walk into the store. They also help you out if you're having a problem; for example if you are just hovvering over the vibrators they will see if you need help. They are understanding that if you need a help with something, becuase we are British and Britains don't have sex (Ha!) that it's hard for some of us to let go of our pride and actually ask for help with our sex toys. They make us feel like we should need to be embaressed, which...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

ANNE BRONTE

Advantages: INTERESTING TO LEARN ABOUT SOMEONE'S LIFE
Disadvantages: NONE

...ANNE BRONTE I have been reading about the Bronte sisters and I have been reading about Anne and also some of her work so this is a very brief account of her life. Anne was born January 17th in 1820 at Thornton. She was sixth child and the last one to be born of Patrick and his wife Maria Branwell Bronte. Her father was the Curate of Thornton and he had to look for a better position because of the size of his family and then he was appointed curacy of Haworth and they moved there in the April of 1820 just a few months after Anne was born. Then very soon after they had moved Anne's mother became ill and died in the September of 1821 and was buried in Haworth Church. The children were up to when Maria Bronte died was look after by a nursemaid and her name was Sarah and her sister Nancy Gars while Patrick Bronte spent the time...

Review of Anne Bronte

Empire of Ann Summers

Advantages: a great selection
Disadvantages: price

...Well, Ann summers shops, great aren't they? I've been to Ann summers shops before and have always found them to be very spacious, have plenty of stock and staff very helpful. Myself I know alot about Ann Summers, I used to be a party organiser. I done this for a year and only gave up because of my full time work commitments grew and couldn't spare my time anymore. Even though I am still in touch and order mostly through friends who are still party organisers I still like to have a look around the shop. The shop where i normally visit is glass fronted with dummys in the window normally 'dressed up' in the lastest new or popular Ann Summers range. Inside, there is plenty of room to move and garments are not too packed onto rails so they all get tangled up. They are nicely spread out and easy to find your size. Ann summers sell...

Ann Summers EXPOSED

Advantages: A great laugh
Disadvantages: Not for the easily embarrassed or offended

...Last week I attended my first ever Ann Summers party. I don’t know how I’ve managed to reach the age of 38 without going to one before, and I certainly won’t wait another 38 years before going to one again. It was hilarious, sexy, exciting, life-enhancing and absolutely filthy! Background ++++++++++ The Ann Summers phenomenon is headed by Jacqueline Gold. From working in her father’s business as a wages clerk, she moved up the ranks of the company and then became Chief Executive, transforming the company into a huge concern selling lingerie and sex toys to women the world over, usually through private parties in women’s own homes. The company now has an annual sales turnover of £53.5 million (gross), and is, according to Ms Gold’s own (incredibly egotistical and nauseating) website...
