* Dancing On The Ice *

Advantages: Fans of the show will love it!
Disadvantages: None!

...of the show will be starting on January 8th 2010. Torvill and Dean's Dancing On Ice - The Bolero 25th Anniversary DVD is of one of the shows taken from the tour , with the same name. The tour celebrates twenty five years since Torvill and Dean did that famous performance ; The Bolero , at the winter olympics in 1984 which won them a gold medal. This DVD was released on November 9th 2009. Running time is one hundred and eight minutes (twelve minutes under two hours.) This DVD is available to buy from play.com for a price of £7.99, which I think is excellent value considering that it's recommended price is £19.99! I was happy to see that a lot of my favourite celebrities who appeared on the television show were taking part in this tour. My favourites were Suzanne Shaw (Hear'say), Melinda Messenger , Jessica Taylor (Liberty X) and of course...

Review of Torvill And Dean's Dancing On Ice - The Bolero 25th Anniversary Tour (DVD)

The Grace of Legendary Dancers

Advantages: Well worth the money for tickets, amazing viewing, mind blowing routines!!
Disadvantages: Would have loved to see Jane & Chris dance Bolero again...aaah well, I have my memories!

...and comfortable with, and to still feel the memories of that long lost 10 year old?s longing. The TV Show When the Dancing on Ice show began on ITV1, I knew even before the first episode that I was going to love it. What could be better than celebrities who?ve never set foot on the ice before, being taught how to ice dance by the ultimate ice dancing team. A perfect show design and I proved myself right by loving every second of that Saturday night TV. After the second series, which finished earlier this year, it was announced that stars from the show, along with the wonderful Torvill and Dean, would be going on tour, taking the show around the country. My sister (an avid ice dancing fan) and I decided there was no question ? if we could get tickets, we were going! Tickets sold out fast, but another, final date was announced, and it just so...

Review of Dancing on Ice Live Tour

Better than expected!

Advantages: Chance to boo people you hate, good value for money
Disadvantages: A lot like the tv show, some parts were a bit boring

...I wasn't exactly overjoyed when my mother told me she had booked tickets to see Dancing on Ice live, don't get me wrong I love watching people parading around in lycra as much as the next man, but it's not really my sort of thing. Seeing it as an opportunity to miss school and go on a shopping trip, I was easily swayed towards this show. Dancing on ice has, for a third year running, captivated tv audiences, often pulling in over 10million viewers in this country alone. Gold medal winners Torvill and Dean were the most appropriate choice to coach, choreograph and pass on their wisdom to an assortment of singers, sports stars, actors and presenters in this winning formula of a tv show. It was only natural that a live show would follow to give the viewers a chance to see these legends skate. Arriving at the venue (we saw the show...

taking the tour

Advantages: accessories, ease of use, price
Disadvantages: for some the size might be a put-off

...has a clock and temperature reader. At any point in my journey I can just look down and check the time or when standing outside the school I can know just who cold it is! The wheels turn easily and smoothly. It used to be that some 4-wheel buggies were hard to navigate but this one has no trouble turning a corner. Just to give you an idea I was in town today with my usual Starbucks in one hand and piloting the buggy with the other. I purchased my Graco travel system from Babies R Us for £260 and there was a promotion to get the £100 accessories pack free. There are various Quattro Tour systems and at very different prices. I think the cheapest of which is around £150. The accessories pack made it so I had the buggy itself, the car seat, one car base, changing bag, foot cosy, carrycot attachment, and rain cover. Was a great deal and I saw...

Just Dance and make a fool of yourself

Advantages: Great fun, intensive workout
Disadvantages: No real structure

...Introduction Dance games have been popular in arcades and on consoles now for the past decade. All previous games have relied on the player placing their feet in certain positions in time to the music. Just Dance for the Wii however brings a much needed change of focus to this genre of game, now your hand and arm movements are they key to big scores but does it work or will it just sell thousands of copies to people desperate to lose a few pounds after binge eating over Christmas? Getting Started I actually bought this game for my 9 year old daughter who fancies herself as a bit of a dancer. She loaded the game up with excitement, not really knowing what to expect. The first thing the game requests you do is a warm up. This is a nice gentle introduction to the game which is designed to get your muscles working in...

Wrigleys Dancing on Ice?

Advantages: Long-lasting flavour which is pleasantly refreshing
Disadvantages: If you don't like the flavour of artificial sweetener this is not fo you

...After trying Wrigleys Ice Liquid Burst and disliking it enormously, I decided to try the normal Wrigleys Extra Ice to see if it was any better. I usually chew Wrigleys Extra Peppermint chewing gum, so I was interested to see if this was an improvement on that. I bought a pack of 8 which was the only option available in the supermarket I went to, but as my husband and I chew gum regularly, it was not bad value for money ? which I?ll go into in a bit more detail later. -Appearance- Rather than traditional strips of Wrigleys chewing gum, this comes in small rectangular lozenges with a hard casing. Each piece is a flecked pale blue in colour. -Flavour- It has quite a strong mint flavour, with a peppery taste which lasted quite a long time. Not so sharp that it blew my head off but enough to give a bit of a zing. This chewing gum...

A Tour of La Tour

Advantages: Great views, beautiful at night
Disadvantages: Not good if you're frightened of heights, there are better views of the city,

...and ushered in its 200,000,000th visitor in 2002. La Tour Today The Eiffel Tower is one of the most visited paid monuments in the world, let alone in Paris. It offers spectacular views over the city and is an intriguing-looking structure both up close and from afar. Instantly recognisable, the tower has three floors, two restaurants, its own Post Office and even an ice-rink (in winter). Practical Information If you do want to visit the tower, there are lots of important things you should know. First off, OPENING TIMES ? the tower is open every day of the year. The opening times do vary depending on the time of year and are subject to change ? these can easily be checked on the website. ENTRANCE FEES are also liable to change with very little notice, and there are tonnes of concessions and group rates that are worth...

Dancing on ice....

Advantages: Great fun and keeps you fit...
Disadvantages: If you've got no balance, it hurts!

...MY EXPERIENCE Well this has been something i've wanted to do since i was a kid but never have done and then when Celebrity Dancing on Ice started a couple of months ago the t.v, i got got itchy feet and wanted to have a blast at t it. Finally i managed to persuade my mates to come with me for a laugh, we drove over to Tamworth to the Snowdome one saturday afternoon. Just the four of us went. Two of my friends and my friends 5 yr old son. Well we had a right laugh, it's alot harder than it looks! Just getting on the ice was hard enough, then we had to cross from one side to the other to get to the mini rink in the middle,which is for begginers while people were racing past on the chikane. The Ice track as a whole is a 250 metre radius. Within that is a mini rink, a large rink and a surrounding chikane. The mini rink is a great size...

The icing on the cake

Advantages: sweet, attractive, adaptable
Disadvantages: /

...When I was younger my grandma and I always used to bake cakes at the weekend. My favourites were the Coffee cake or the Marble cake. We always seemed to make large, share sized cakes fitted for all, but never little fairy cakes or little cup cakes. Though now when I get the urge to bake on my own, I tend to make little single sized cakes which are fine for dishing out. To ice them, I always use Silver Spoon icing sugar, as I do feel it is the best around! Packaging: The icing sugar comes in a cardboard box. One thing that attracts me to it is its pretty pink colour - it may be sexist but I do think this is aimed at females more so. On the front there is a big spoon image, hence the name! When you open it up you will find a little cardboard style bag. Opening this a puff of white powder will come out so you need to be careful. It is...
