The Flower Of Passion

Advantages: Stunning flowers, easy to look after, quick grower
Disadvantages: Can take over the garden if your not careful

...Myself and my girlfriend have been sorting out our back garden so it?s all in good shape for the summer. The garden is not very big so we only have a couple of small flower beds. We have found the Passion Flower to be a great addition to out garden because it is a climbing plant and grows along the fence, rather than taking up floor space! The Passion Flower The Passion Flower is very similar to a vine in the way it grows. New stems grow from the main plant and attach themselves to whatever they decide to grow along. The leaves of the Passion Flower are dark green and have a very attractive shape (I suppose it is quite similar to a cannabis leaf). Along the main stem of the plant, little feelers grow, these are vital to the plant because this is what clings to whatever the plant is growing along and supports the weight...

Review of Passion Flower

Wilted flowers in the attic

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: The film

... FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC (1987) DVD (2005) I should avoid watching films of books that I have enjoyed! Well in this case I certainly should. I can remember back, gosh must be nearly thirty years now, reading the book ?Flowers in The Attic?, by Virginia Andrews. I was utterly enthralled and had to stay up until 4.00 in the morning as there was no way I could sleep until I had finished the book. So when I saw the DVD of the film on sale at Amazon for around £2, I snapped it up. I sat down with a bottle of wine and much anticipation, only to be left feeling cheated and disappointed. This review is written from the view of someone who has read, and loved, the book, maybe someone watching the DVD as a ?Flowers Virgin? may well enjoy it. JUST WHAT IS ?FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC?? The book was a best...

The Beautiful Passion Flower

Advantages: easy to grow, beautful flowers and leaves
Disadvantages: slugs and snails like to munch on them!

...I have had my own house for about 2 years now and have only a very small garden with limited space for growing plants. I was bought the Passion Flower by my parents who assured me it was very easy to grow, as I don't have a very good track record with keeping plants alive. This is mainly because I refuse to use slug and snail pellets etc as I think it's cruel. Anyway, back on topic, here I will be reviewing the beautiful Passion Flower. The Passion Flower As I already said, the Passion Flower is very easy to grow, both in conservatories as well as in the garden. This plant originates from the tropical rainforest regions of South America. The ripe Passion Flower has a very distinctive aroma not found in any other flower. The Passion Flower is a climbing plant and the vines which climb are also very pretty with lovely shaped...

Review of Passion Flower

Oh, Pretty Flower!

Advantages: Great for fans of the show, nice colourful pictures
Disadvantages: None

...Anyone with children will not have been able to ignore the ever popular TV show called In the Night Garden. As with all children's shows the merchandise has been sold in huge amounts, my boys have also wanted all of it. The TV show has produced some very nice books. This one is called Upsy Daisy, Ooh, Pretty Flowers. The book is a hard covered book and has a picture of Upsy Daisy on it standing in front of a pile of flowers, there is a pink shape in the top right hand corner with the title in purple lettering. The back cover of the book is blue and shows the scene of Igglepiggle in his boat on the ocean which can been seen at the beginning and end of the TV show. The book starts with Igglepiggle and Upsy Daisy looking at the flowers in the garden, they say hello to each other. As they are looking at the flowers the Ninky Nonk...

Flower, A Game Just Sprouting Brilliance

Advantages: Beautiful, Cheap, Fun, Beautiful, Simple, Trophies, Unique, Did I Mention Beautiful?
Disadvantages: A little short (but this is balanced by the price)

...I'm a fan of computer games. Rather a big fan in fact. But with this confession usually comes with a whole load of stereotypes. You know the ones. You probably thought of a couple yourself. But unlike the main core of gamers I tend to branch away from the main areas of gaming, that is to say I don't spend much of my time shooting things, and tend to try and enjoy things that are different as a few too many games end up a bit the same so it's refreshing to find something new. Something creative, or fun, or something that tells an amazing story. Something a bit different to the usual stream of games. Something that just is a little bit different. And so I bring you to this game, nothing like anything I've played before, a real unique experience. I introduce to you, Flower on the Playstation 3. About The Game The idea behind the game...

Review of Flower (PS3)

  All the fun of the flower show

Advantages: Flourishing, full of features, family-friendly
Disadvantages: Almost too much to take in; transport links

...In the palace at old Hampton Court Henry VIII flashed his hampton for sport; Young Anne Boleyn saw it And knew she was for it, Lost her head and became his consort (though not in quite that order). Sorry, couldn?t resist slipping that one in. And since so much of the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show this year was themed on Henry VIII, it?s almost relevant. Hampton Court Palace is famous for many things: its history, its architecture, its maze, its Real Tennis court (the oldest in the world) and its grounds. The latter comprise 60 acres of formal gardens ? with ornamental water-features, fountains and parterres ? and 750 acres of verdant parkland on the banks of the Thames just across the river from Kingston. It?s an attractive setting, and in many ways the ideal location, for the largest of the Royal Horticultural Society...

Review of Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, London

Bush Hall Hotel

Advantages: Beautiful, well priced
Disadvantages: None

...Bush Hall is situated just off of the A1 in Hatfield. It is old an old hotel and is said that it used to be Henry Eighth's Hunting Lodge. As you can imagine the building is full of character. There are newer parts of the hotel that have been added on at a later date to create rooms for fuctions / weddings etc. I shall describe in greater detail each part of the hotel. The approach to the hotel is via a log windy drive ay. The first thing you see is a foutain which is lit up at night. You see the old buildig in all its glory iwith beautiful blossomig ad trailing flowers growing up the side. You walk into the hotel and find that the whole buildig is in keeping with its era. Immediately there is a reception and following on from this is the dining room and a large bar area. The dining room is well done out with beautifully...

Review of Bush Hall, Hatfield

I hate Bush!

Advantages: Internet option could have been a good point.
Disadvantages: Gimmicky, poorly designed, heavy.

...We purchased the Bush Internet Portable Television two years ago for the meagre sum of £99. We were only after a portable TV for the bedroom at the time but this was in the same price range as other models with the added feature of Internet access so as that rather irritating advert says, "Why pay the same for less?" The Bush Internet TV in packaged in a worryingly heavy box, dragging the television out of its annoying polystyrene carton you are confronted by what can only be described as a space age style portable television. In fact it looks like a deformed helmet for Neil Armstrong. This is re-enforced by its metallic silver, curved, bubble style. It is all very 1970's. Setting up the television appears to be easy. According to the step-by-step instructions simply plug in the hoop aerial, plug into the wall and use the remote to...

Review of Bush Internet Tv

Look At My Bush!

Advantages: Great price, clear screen, good sound
Disadvantages: A brand with not a great reputation or public knowledge

...(24/10/06 - an update to this review has been attached to the end of the original, below.) I like Bush. Really, I do. No, not what your dirty little mind is telling you and not that weird guy who's apparently in charge of the planet, but Bush - you know, the electronics people. They make tellies and video players and DVD players and that type of thing, usually pretty damned cheaply, too. But that's not the only reason I like them - cheap Bush is handy to have, but it's not bad quality either. You tend to get the best of all worlds with Bush - a good price, reasonable reliability and some features to play with too. I have a 32" normal Bush TV on the television stand in the living room upstairs but, in advance of the World Cup earlier this year, I needed a large telly to go in the bar and I really wanted a large plasma or LCD...

Review of Bush IDPDP42TV008

Pleasantly Surprised by a Bush

Advantages: Good picture & sound, easy to use controls.
Disadvantages: Takes a few seconds to "warm-up".

...I am a bit of a technophobe, but thought I would write about our TV DVD combi, in the only way I now how, simply. Hopefully it will help other non-technical people out there. Our portable TV was having intermittent faults, and my family were complaining that it was so ancient that it didn?t even have a socket to plug in a free-view box. They also wanted a DVD player included in any new model that was bought. Having a portable TV in good working order does reduce the amount of squabbles about what programmes to watch, so I decided to have a look around for the best value for money one for us. I was strongly influenced by a TV DVD combi we had use of when we went on holiday, and after trying to find better value for money alternatives, I was drawn back to this model. I have had one previous experience of owning a Bush TV...
