Stuff Magazine

Advantages: one-stop place for advice on all the gadgets you need
Disadvantages: can go OTT with expensive gadgets, pictures of beautiful girls put off female readers

...People who've read my reviews have probably figured out that I'm into gadgets. I tend to buy the best gadgets that are available within my price bracket and am often one of the first people to do so. An important source of info for me is Stuff Magazine. This magazine showcases the latest gadgets that have been released or are about to be released and covers anything that would traditionally be regarded as a boys toy. In fact apart from my review of the microwave oven and the Micheal Crichton book, everything I've purchased (and subquently reviewed) first came to my attention via Stuff Magazine. Because the magazine also gives you an idea of the trends in gadgets it also allows you to think ahead and plan for the future. Certainly in my case, one of the themes in my house is the introduction of Hard Drives and WiFi and general...

Great stuff!!

Advantages: The same quality as Kandoo.. but cheaper!
Disadvantages: None!!!

...at children. They claim to be the most nutritional, healthy and child friendly products in the Asda range. The packet is half the size of a packet of baby wipes and is bright green in colour. On the left hand side in HUGE writing is the "Great stuff" logo, with the contents written underneath, 60 wipes with a fruity fragrance. On the right hand side is a picture of a purple hippo, wiping his bum with one of the afore mentioned wipes, I swear until I started writing this review I had never noticed the "bum" thing! Across the hippo's t-shirt the phrase "hippo bottomous" is written. Written in small brightly coloured speech bubbles are the properties of the wipes, such as, derma tested, flushable (one at a time), not in great handfuls like my son tries, although in fairness they have never clogged the toilet up, finally they are stated to be...

Advantages: Good variety of discount codes and freebies

...Samples, Free Baby Stuff, Free Mobile Stuff, Free Trials, Free Cash, Free Games, Magazines, Competitions, Sport Betting, Free Ringtones, Free SMS, Daily Horoscopes, Cheap Calls, and Music Videos.

These are broken down with obvious visuals to help you choose - red star = hot, orange star = new, blue star = cool. Each offer then has a title of about 5 words, followed by a fuller description of the item itself. When you find...

'Great Stuff'?

Advantages: No major ones to rant about!!
Disadvantages: Too dry and generally ineffective.

...'s a little one within the clan who is 2 and has been going through the dreaded potty training for the last few months and thankfully has succeeded?? just!! ■ Packaging ■ These wipes come in packaging that is very similar to baby wipes, only a lot smaller. They are packed in plastic with a reseal transparent section on the top. Lift this up and underneath there is a small hole from whence the wipes are lifted. ■ Ease of packaging ■ The re-sealable section is far better than many of the nappy wipes I have used. It's 'stickiness' does last which helps to keep the original nature of the wipes. The packet isn't as bulky as baby wipes so can be fitted in to a bag without bulging at the seams! The downside of the packaging is that it isn't very easy to 'retrieve' just one wipe, generally you get two or three...

Having a Baby

Advantages: Makes excellent espresso, cappuccino and latte coffee
Disadvantages: Needs to be cleaned and maintained regularly

...I've never been particularly keen on drinking coffee at work - the options usually consisting of either a mug of the instant variety made with water boiled in a disgustingly furred-up kettle, or a paper cup of brown-coloured hot liquid dispensed by a temperamental vending machine - so it was with some relief when I began a new job last year to learn that there was an espresso machine at my disposal, with which to make a cup of 'real' coffee whenever I wanted one. I wouldn't term myself a coffee snob by any means, but I'm a firm believer that there's no competition between the genuine article and its powdered or granular equivalent, despite what the Kenco lady in the television commercials would have us believe. NAMING THE BABY Our machine, the quaintly-named Baby Dose, is made by the Italian company Gaggia, one of the world...

Review of Gaggia New Baby Dose

Soft stuff

Advantages: Keeps the kids amused and quite cheaply
Disadvantages: Can be messy

...My son loves playing with his soft stuff, although it can be messy. They come in little pots with a seal that can be peeled off when first opened. Soft stuff is just modelling clay that can be modelled into different shapes. It is very cheap and comes in individual pots of different colours - either plain or shiny. You can also buy them in various packs including packs of three. There are also various accessories available with them, including rolling pin and cutters. The age is 2 plus but I think my son was using them earlier than that at his toddler class - they would just need supervised if using them before the age of 2 in case they put things in their mouth. Soft stuff is a great way for them to use their imagination as they are thinking of different shapes and things to make. It keeps fresh for a while, but...
