Such an average barrier!

Advantages: Tops up your moisturizer
Disadvantages: Price

...This is another review about a Dermalogica product which I do like, I cannot say I love it as I think it can be easily replaced but it is worth letting you know about. When your skin is dry,especially during winter periods, and you want an extra moisture and barrier on top of your normal moisturizer, this might be the product for you. WHAT IS IT? *********** This product is described as an anhydrous (waterless) moisturizer that just melts away in your skin. It is meant to smooth, repair any damage caused by pollution, the environment, temperature extremes, heavy make up, irritating cosmetic products, stress, poor diet, harsh detergents used on your skin, hormonal factors. The list is pretty long but as you can see this looks like a versatile product aiming to repair damage. It contains Anti-Ozonate complex to protect skin from...

Fun and safe mats!

Advantages: safe, nice, easy to use
Disadvantages: may be pulled up!

...Bath time is fun time for babies! They love to play with their toys and splash around but there's always that element of worry knowing that your baby is playing in water and that the bath is very slippy so you do need to keep your baby as safe as possible. The usual bath mats work really well but they are really plain and boring looking and, from what I remember when we ewre younger, they used to go mouldy very quickly especially the white ones! I saw these Clippasafe mini bath mats and thought they looked so much nicer and decided to give them a go and see if they would work okay for us and if they would be fun for our baby too! The bath mats come in packets of 6 and they are mini which means you do need to use them all so that they are actually useful else they're just not worth it! They stick onto the bath easily and they...

The Thames Barrier

Advantages: saves London from flooding
Disadvantages: looks quite ugly

...I first saw the Thames Barrier when I was taken on a pleasure boat trip up the River Thames as a young lad by my parents, I remember being intrigued by it and began quizzing my father all about which I'm sure he was delighted with! The Thames Barrier is a flood control measure spanning the width of the river. Apparently it has been used over one hundred times and as recently as March of last year. When looking at the barrier it is quite impressive even if it is rather ugly! At the point which it has been built the river is over five hundred yards wide. The barrier covers this complete section and breaks the river into four different sections, each approximately two hundred feet in length. When looking at the barrier above sea-level it doesn't appear to be a barrier at all, just four Sydney opera house shaped structures spanning...

Beyond the mat

Advantages: An unusually frank look behind the scenes at the usually secretive WWF; in-depth looks at how wrestling affects not just the performers, but their families.
Disadvantages: The film was in production for a long time, so some footage is dated.

...A documentary about wrestling? But how can you make a factual film about something that's fake? Look closer and you will see that behind the scenes, or, if you will "Beyond The Mat", there is far more to this "sport" than meets the eye. Everyone knows that wrestling is not a "legitimate" sport, and Barry Blaustein never sets out to convince us that it is. Instead, this is a look into the inner machinations of a business that has for decades been shrouded in secrecy. Blaustein catches some phenomenal footage in his time backstage at WWF events, including the headache inducing scenario of one prospective wrestler being offered a contract purely because of his ability to vomit on demand, whilst two others put on an impressive match before a TV taping, and never hear from the Federation again. But, as many fans know, that's wrestling...

Pampers Change Mats and Bed Mats

Advantages: Disposable, protects my bed when changing baby

...Previously called Care Mats, Pampers Change Mats are disposable absorbant waterproof mats with a white soft top and a lilac coloured plasticy underside. The Change Mats are 60 x 60 cm and come in packs of 12. The current cost is £5.99 per pack (checked with both Boots and Tesco).

Vtech Explorer Mat

Advantages: Washable, entertaining
Disadvantages: None

...I brought this activity mat for my daughter when she was 6 months old off a friend who had two bought for her daughter for Christmas. She recommended it as she has two boys aswell and cannot always be in the same place all the time with her daughter. It has been a god send to us as when baby rolls off the mat it calls "Where's baby hiding?" which signals that baby is no longer playing on the mat and could be up to all sorts of mischeif! At first my daughter was content playing with the birds in the centre of the activity mat. You pull them down and they sing "there are three birdies in a tree" etc etc which is a very catchy tune and my daughter loves listening to it time and time again. Then there is the Ladybird on one end. You turn it around and it counts to 6 and sings another tune "counting's one of our favourite tricks 1...

Dance Mat

Advantages: it is great fun and good exercise at the same time
Disadvantages: keep reading....

...If you've ever been into an arcade, you my have seen a dancing game which is usually surrounded by loads of people- as it is fun to watch people either look great or making fools out of themselves on it! A couple of years back, they brought out this game for playstations, which you can play either using the controller or by buying the dance mat- which of course is the best and most fun option. The dance mat works just like the controller, but you use your feet rather than your hands. it is lota of fun. In order to use the mat for its specific purpose, you need to but a dancing game such as 'dancing stage euromix' these games contain different dancing sessions to up to date music with different difficulty ratings and also there are workouts you can do to burn off those calories. The dance mats are made out of a rubber...

Way beyond the mat

Advantages: Easy to follow, simplistic
Disadvantages: No storyline, a lack of cinematic techniques

...When i was about eight years old i used to be an avid wrestling fan, but i stopped watchin it at about 12 years old. Lately ive been getting back into it and have become very involved again and this led me to read the biography of Mick Foley and in his book he metions the film Beyond The Mat. It was this metion that made me want ot go and buy the film, so when i finally found a copy of it i bought it. When i started to watch the film I thought that it wouldn't be able to surprise me with it's contents but to my surprise it was a fairly in depth look at the wrestling industry from the viewpoint of a lifetime fan of the sport, Barry Blaustein. The film opens with Barry sitting in front of a TV with wrestling showing on it and him describing his love for the sport. Then it dives into the details of the corporation known as the WWF...

Bed Mat-ters!

Advantages: Prevents night-time accidents soiling your child's mattress
Disadvantages: Quite pricey

...My son is dry throughout the day, and is virtually dry all the way through the night, but we still have the odd ?accident?. He?s coming up to five and has decided that the pyjama pants or ?nappy knickers? as he calls them, are too babyish for him and now refuses to wear them. So looking around for a solution to the odd night-time accident led me to Pampers Bed Mats. Pampers have two similar sorts of products here ? Change Mats and Bed Mats. The main difference is the size ? the Change Mats are small enough to be put in your bag (square 60cm x 60cm) and carried around for baby changes. The Bed Mats are that much larger and have ?bed wings? to allow you to secure the mat on the bed. These were what we were after. The reason we opted for this type of product was that I didn?t particularly want to use a rubber mattress protector...

stylish mouse mat

Advantages: stylish
Disadvantages: none

...The main difference between this mouse mat and others, is that this Is built for optical mouse’s. Of course this will still work with other normal roller mouse’s too, but it will work best with optical mouse’s and was built for them because some mouse mats don’t work so well with optical mouse’s. Most mouse mats are made out of some kind of material, however this one isn’t, actually its made out of plastic and not cheap flimsy plastic either, this is made out of quite hard plastic and its surface is quite bumpy too. This makes it pick up the light sensors easily and give your mouse a much more accurate direction. On the bottom of this mouse mat, is rubber, this makes it stick to the table and so not roll all over the place as some cheaper mats do when you use them. The shape of these is great...
