For a Sparkling Bathroom

Advantages: cleans well, makes light work of dirt, CHEAP
Disadvantages: Leaves a smell on hands after use

...When I got to the checkout on my last shopping trip I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to get my usual multi purpose wipes so asked hubby to go and grab a packet. Now I have been using the same brand for a very long time but for some reason hubby could not remember which ones they were and came back with these ones. I did let him off though as I did need them for the bathroom and decided I would try these instead. ~~THE PACKET~~ The wipes come in a flat packet which is very similar to a packet of baby wipes. It is blue in colour and has the product name at the top with a picture of a shiny bathroom and under this is a red rectangle which contains the claims that these wipes will remove soap scum and control the build up of lime scale. The back of the packet has a white rectangle down the left hand side which has all...

Review of Tesco Bathroom Wipes

Bathroom Mousse

Advantages: Works well with a little scrubbing
Disadvantages: Use a lot at once

...I bought this on recommendation from a friend and colleague, who uses it for cleaning at work as well as at home. She said it does the job where other cleaners are just not good enough, so I promptly went out and bought some. I paid £1.05 in Tesco, which I thought was surprisingly cheap for a big name brand like Cif. Cif claim that this bathroom mousse gives brilliant results with minimum effort. You just need to spray the mousse on, leave it 5-10 minutes, and rinse it off. It's suitable for use on plastic, enamel and chrome surfaces. The mousse comes in a tall cylindrical can with a see-through lime green domes lid. The top has the usual mousse-can spray, with a button at one side of the nozzle, which you just press down and out squirts the mousse. It's really easy to use and to direct the spray where you want it. It's easy...

Great Mills Jacuzzi Bathroom Suite

Advantages: Good value for money - nice looking bathroom suite
Disadvantages: Missing parts / wrong parts - some have been marked

...We recently purchased a lovely jacuzzi bathroom suite from a Great Mills DIY store. As Great Mills don't stock the bathrooms, they pass your details on to the relevant bathroom supplier (in our case 'Jacuzzi UK'), who then deliver the suite to you. Having received our bathroom on the date as promised, we were very pleased. My husband went ahead and fitted the bathroom whilst I was at work (to suprise me when I got home) - and boy was I suprised! Unfortunately, although my husband didn't notice it, I saw that the vanity unit doors didn't match the ones we had ordered (or the rest of the suite), and that the handle was gold when it should have been chrome, so phoned the supplier straight away. They were very helpful and told us that they would send us replacement parts within a week. After two weeks had passed without a delivery, I...

Embassy Suites

Advantages: Good service, and amenities
Disadvantages: A long way from anything

...Embassy Suites On a recent visit to California, I was booked into this hotel because it was close to places I had to visit for work. The hotel itself is only a short drive from the airport (it took about half an hour in a hire car, and not knowing where I was going) and is located in La Jolla which is apparently quite an affluent area, featuring banks and houses and hotels as well as restaurants and a rather nice shopping mall. It's easy to drive into the hotel and should you ask for it there is valet parking in the high rise car park, but I just parked round the back of the hotel. Once inside the hotel, check in was quick and efficient and I was immediately impressed with the well set out entrance lobby featuring some nice little touches such as plentiful flowers. The reception desk is large and well staffed and also in...

The Other Side Of Nelly: Suit

Advantages: Great production
Disadvantages: Poor rhymes

..."Suit" is the second half of a double album by Nelly released in 2004. It has him work in his smoother form, with music which is more R&B-like, than suited to rap. This means that you have a choice with Nelly's music, whether you enjoy his grittier side, or his singing side, to then pick a CD to match your preference. 1. "Play It Off" To set the scene for this album, we get a massive collaboratiion by Nelly as he gets a chance to rp as Pharrell does the production and singing for him. Although their work rarely comes together, when it does, such as in "Flap Ya Wings" (off "Sweat"), it is always top-quality. The pair work together amazingly, and with the futuristic Neptunes beats, and Pharrell's great falsetto singing, it all came together nicely. **Four Stars** 2. "Pretty Toes" I was extremely impressed by this tune...

Review of Suit [PA] - Nelly

What's In Your Bathroom?

Advantages: Great rhyming text and humorous illustrations
Disadvantages: Too Short!!

...This is a brilliant humorous tale of what really happens in the bathroom at night when all of the creepy-crawlies come out to play! ~ The story ~ It begins with a 'human' peeping in to the darkened bathroom and all he/ she could see were lots and lots of yellow eyes peering back at him / her. 'When I peeped around the bathroom door. I couldn't believe the things I saw.....' And so begins a humorous account of what the minibeasts in the bathroom are doing: ' A caterpillar was washing his hair with my shampoo - I don't think that's fair.' 'An earwig was using Dad's aftershave. A woodlouse saw me and started to wave.' It also includes a ladybird skiing down the bath, a beetle singing in the shower, a centipede giving itself a manicure, a spider bungee jumping from the sink and ants using the sink as a skating rink etc...

Review of Beetle in the Bathroom - Brian Moses

Suite Dreams!

Advantages: Complimentary parking and breakfast, best price guarantee via web
Disadvantages: Drinks a little expensive.

...Finding myself with a mid morning flight departure of 10am from San Francisco Airport meant I had to find accommodation close to the airport for our final night. Like most people, I don't particularly relish spending a night in an Airport hotel, as it seems to be far more a functional expenditure than it adding anything to the holiday. However as there was no avoiding it, we booked the Embassy Suites, San Francisco Airport, South San Francisco and decided we would arrive reasonably late in the evening so we could enjoy the final day touring through the wine country. I booked online via the company's own website. Both my husband and I are familiar with the Embassy Suites brand, having both used them for business trips (separately) to the USA in the past. For those who do not know, however, Embassy Suites is part of the Hilton chain. I...

Review of Embassy Suites Hotel, San Francisco Airport

Bathroom Fiasco

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Terrible customer service, shoddy workmanship

...We had been looking forward to having our new bathroom as the one in our recently purchased home looked like it had been there before the house was build in the sixties! We chose Dolphin as they are a well known company and we had had one of their showers in our previous house which served us well for nine years. However I would never ever use the company again. Detailing all of the problems we had would make for a longer read than War and Peace so I will summarise below: 1. 13 days without a bath or shower 2. 6 days without a functioning toilet 3. 4 days staying in all day waiting for fitters who did not turn up (including two days taken off work causing loss of earnings) 4. 2 days of raw sewage running down the outside of the house 5. Water coming through the ceiling below the bathroom 6. A floor to ceiling crack in a wall...

Review of Dolphin Bathrooms

DolphinBathrooms

Advantages: They do it all for you
Disadvantages: Its expensive

...Firstly, we fancied a Dolphin Bathroom so we phoned and booked a home visit for a "designer". We got a cocky sales rep who thought we couldnt afford the bathroom and so couldnt be bothered to do the sale (we had just moved in and everywhere was a bit of a mess). So we phoned again and asked for another person to visit, this time we got a rather pleasant gent, who talked us through our purchase. He knew what he was talking about, and his sales technique was more of a gently push than all out pressure. It took about 2 hours. Anyway, within two weeks someone came to survey the property and ensure that what we wanted was actually feasible. That too took about 2 hours. The following week, the entire bathroom turned up - on a saturday. I mean everything, cabinets, bath, toilet, sink, tiles - all of it. After 3 weeks of having...

Bathroom Wonder Wipes

Advantages: Easy to use, Very effective, Good value.
Disadvantages: Not to widely available, yet.

...I hate cleaning bathrooms. I usually find that most bathroom cleaners, get on my chest and make me cough and splutter. They are normally to strong and make me feel ill. I am always on the look out for new products, and I am always willing to try new things! I spotted this product, whilst I was out and about, shopping, and having used this brand of cleaning products before, decided it was time to invest in the bathroom cleaner. I have had no grieviences with this brand of cleaning products and have always found them to be effective and less harsh than others. **********************PACKAGING*********************** This product comes in a pale blue plastic wrapper, with a resealable flap. On the front of the packet, there are four little round pictures, that tell you and show you, what these wipes can be used on. Underneath this...
