The Bold and the Beautiful

Advantages: Great looking, very easy to use
Disadvantages: Poor Battery

...After recently getting the Blackberry Bold I thought I'd share my thoughts about it. Traditionally a Blackberry is known for being solely aimed at the business market with one of its main selling points being the fact that you have constant email access which is of course very important for some people. They were not aimed at the consumer market in terms of looks or capabilities. However, the Blackberry Bold (BB) aims to change that. With the recent trend on mobile phones being to include internet access, suddenly the Blackberry isn't so businessey and may have some appeal to the consumer market. The BB has been very much designed not only for practical reasons, but also in order to attract potential new customers. Gone are the brick like Blackberry's and in is the very attractive looking Blackberry Bold. Design Looking...

Review of BlackBerry Bold 9000

Blackberry Bold 9000

Advantages: Easy to use, pleasent to look at, good battery life, big memory, good camera, easily customisable.
Disadvantages: May not be for those who prefer a smaller phone.

...I have previously been an owner of the blackberry curve and pearl and the bold by far is the best phone I have ever laid my hands on. The phone is stylish and the format is set out in a clear and easy to use way. Although fonts are limited, the new fonts added to the bold are nicer to look at than the previous. The phone is very easy to customise, with a vast variety of covers, cases, skins to protect the phone, although the phone is very durable. Unlike the other blackberry's, the bold has a leather look hard battery/back cover, this is also very useful, because if your one that is careless and drops the phone, like myself, no scratches are seeable. Many themes can be downloaded and bought for the blackberry bold, meaning you can customise it to your personality as much as possible, you can even make your own themes...

BlackBerry Bold 9000 Review

Advantages: Look & feel; sound quality; fast Internet; range of features
Disadvantages: Camera not great; file transferring is quite confusing

...It was time for an upgrade from my old mobile phone to a new one, and I spent a whole month trying to decide which new phone to buy. I soon narrowed it down to a BlackBerry Bold 9000 and the Nokia E71 - both, I was told, are "fantastic phones", and after having a play with the BlackBerry Bold and Nokia E71 in a phone shop, I quickly knew BlackBerry Bold was for me, and I ordered it the very same day. BlackBerry's have been popular for a while now, and I was eager to know why. They are known for being the phone for business people; however, I don't think this phone should be restricted to that band of people alone. I will use mine for both business and personal use and so far it has worked well for both work and pleasure. Just in case you're curious, I bought my BlackBerry Bold 9000 from Vodafone. I have been with Vodafone...

GO FOR THE BOLD

Advantages: general use
Disadvantages: nothing

...Bold 2 in 1 Lavender and Camomile washing capsules..... I have found myself skipping from one washing brand to another mainly depending on which one is the cheapest when I do my weekly shop but for the last few times I have found myself buying the same brand and that is this Bold 2 in 1 in the Lavender and Camomile fragrance. Luckily enough the liquid tabs were on special offer in Tesco last week and a large tub of 30 capsules (30 washes) was £4 instead of £5 something, so giving you a saving of over £1 which I thought was pretty good. The reason I have seemed to stick to this particular brand is that I have found it to truly be a cut above the rest. The smell of the Lavender and Camomile is very strong and rather soothing and when the washing is drying it gives the house a wonderfully fragranced aroma. Not only does the washing...

Review of Bold 2 in 1 Detergent and Fabric Softner Liquid

Now I cannot live without my Blackberry Bold!

Advantages: Immediate emails, Full QWERTY keyboard, Medai Player, Great Range of Applications
Disadvantages: Not compatible with FLASH, Camera

...in to my bank account and transfer money or simply check my balance. I believe that the incorporated media player is excellent too, allowing me to listen to a tremendous amount of songs with the size adjustable earphones or through the main speaker of the phone. The full qwerty keyboard enables me to respond to text messages or emails as quickly as i would using the keyboard on my laptop. Being a person who does not get on too well with the new touch technology, I find this aspect to be one of its best features. The battery life could be better, I find myself having to charge it every 2 days and the camera is not the best. There is one thing that has and continues to disappoint me with the Blackberry Bold though. For some strange reason it is not compatible with Flash. With so many websites relying on this facility this can be...

Review of BlackBerry Bold 9000

Bold 2 in 1 Liquitabs

Advantages: Great smelling clothes (&House!!)
Disadvantages: Bit pricey

...We had a money off voucher for Bold 2 in 1 Liquitabs and so we bought some. We chose Lavender and Chamomile and popped a load in the washing machine. You have to place one Liquitab in the back of the drum and then place the washing inside, set the programme and let the machine do it's job. The liquid is a mixture of detergent and fabric softener and is sealed inside a thin membrane which dissolves in water. It is very important to handle with dry hand and store with the lid closed and out of direct sunlight. The outer container is plastic with a snap shut lid and has all the product information and instructions in colourful labels on the outside. Unfortunately as with most other Liquid Tabs products, they are not suitable for handwashing. I also, personally feel that no washing tablet or liquid pouch are value for money if...

Review of Bold Washing Tablets

To Boldly Go...

Advantages: Central location, refurbished rooms
Disadvantages: Limited car parking and poor access for disabled

...This two star family owned hotel lies in a central position on Lord Street (the main shopping street in Southport). It has recently undergone some refurbishment and I have coincidentally had the opportunity to stay. The Bold Hotel lies towards the northern end of Lord Street, close to the Grand Casino, for those who know the area. It is easily spotted having a prominent white façade. The hotel has an area to the front which is used in the summer months as a terrace from which one can sit with a drink and watch the world pass by. In winter months it adds a few, much needed, parking spaces. The ground floor of the hotel houses the bar and restaurant. The only access to reception and the guestrooms is through the bar. The bar is busy with non-residents on Friday and Saturday evenings and it can be a bit of a struggle to fight your way...

Review of The Bold Hotel, Southport

Are you bold enough

Advantages: Smells glorious! Keeps the laundry smellings good. Cleans really well.
Disadvantages: None

...Bold is the washing powder I used most frequently. Yes, I do try others. If there's new or different brands on the market, I'll try them. But, in the end, I always go running back to good old reliable Bold. Why? Because I love it! And now, there's a different kind of Bold on sale which I've not tried before. It's '2 in 1 Bold Aqua'. And it's NEW with freshguard! The 2 in 1 is like the shampoo. It has a built in conditioner, which saves you spending them extra pennies on Comfort of Lenor! The conditioner softens your clothes and leaves them feeling smooth - so it says on the back of the packet, anyway! I'll just tell you what it says on the back of the pack about Freshguard:- "New Bold has FreshGuard in its built-in conditioner. It actively works against everyday odours that can build up on your clothes and leaves them...

Review of Bold Washing Powder

☼ Sold on Bold ☼

Advantages: * Fragrant*
Disadvantages: * Not very eco-friendly*

...too often dumped in the laundry basket , this being a far easier option than hanging in the wardrobe. Finally we have my son whom I think must eat off his shirt as opposed to a plate. (He is in training to be a man!) With all this in mind, you will appreciate that the affair between myself and my current washing machine (must do a review on that later...) is both active and turbulent. I wash every day or more to the point, I use the washing machine for a laundry wash, every day. The choice of washing detergent is therefore an important one. At times I have favoured Surf, Ariel and Daz ( no plastic daffodils , please) but the one on the job at the moment is Bold. I have tried powder, liquid, capsules, waccy baccy (!) , and tablets. The product in review at present is Bold 2in1 with the latest fragrance of Lavender and Camomile...

Review of Bold Washing Tablets

Boldly Going...

Advantages: They work. They're convenient. Fresh clean smell.
Disadvantages: A bit on the expensive side.

...Alright I admit it (?cos I?m honest like that!); I only tried these washing tablets because they were on special offer. I discovered, on a recent shopping trip, that Sainsburys appear to have stopped stocking my usual, trusted ?Daz? powder in the bag. Oh-oh! now what do I get? (the shorter, polite version of what I was thinking!) I didn?t fancy lumbering home with one of those bulky, clumsy boxes, so I boldly (sorry - couldn't resist!) took the plunge and opted (with help from the reduced price!) to try out these Bold washing tablets. The moment of truth came yesterday when the cynic (ME!) proceeded to test them.... >>>Description<<< Ok, so for those that don?t know, (where have you been?) these tablets are washing powder in the form of little ?bricks?, and there are 48 of them in each box. The Bold tablets come in two versions...
