De blob

Advantages: fun
Disadvantages: none

...De Blob I wanted this game when I first seen it advertise and I got a nice surprise when my friend bought me it. ~ About the Game ~ This wii game is great for all ages , The aim of the game is to paint the town due to the inkies turning everything into black and white , you have to put colour back into the world , you collect paint pots and start painting the buildings. There are also challenges you have to complete so you can move on to the next level but you have a time limit so watch out! There are 3 colours of paint pots , Yellow , Blue and Red - you have to use these to mix colours. The wii control is used in different ways to make the blob move and jump around' ~ Graphics ~ I think that the graphics are not bad for a wii game it at all. ~ Disadvantages ~ you can't always find the gate at the end of the level in time and you have...

Eau de Kittyfluff

Advantages: Smells so darkly sexy!
Disadvantages: The bottle weighs a tonne..

...Now I am a fussy girlie when it comes to buying perfume. It has to be expensive, it has to be an eau de parfum, and you have to be able to smell me coming a mile away. I love dark, musky scents with hints of Indian Spice and incense. I just can't abide by fresh,fruity rubbish. I don't wish to smell like a bowl of pot pourri or a magic tree car air freshner. I discovered this particular fragrance whilst shopping just before Christmas with my beloved Mr Fluff. Who was at the time sweating his nads off trying to think of what to buy his little fluffball. This was when I found one of those open style perfumeries. The girl looked a little bored, so I told her what kind of things I liked and then made her run around spraying endless testers on to those little card sniffy things.I think she was quite incensed by the fact that I told her...

Review of Rio de Janeiro

De-lightful and stunning venue!

Advantages: Excellent service, beautiful grounds, superb accommodation
Disadvantages: Not close to public transport access

...excellent. One of our friends had the Thetford pork loin, one had the organic salmon, and three of us opted for the carvery which on weekends you had to have two courses, but given the selection of starters and desserts was no real trial! - We naturally went for the dessert option! We also had drinks and a couple bottles of wine - No-one in our group could fault the quality and service, especially when the member of waiting staff overheard us wishing our friend happy birthday - She asked if we would like some balloons - and a few minutes later came back with a bunch all ribboned and weighted! You can see the full selection of menus offered at Dunston Hall if you go to the De Vere website. After lunch we took and gentle stroll in the grounds, and were able to view parts of the golf course that are part of the complex. As we were only...

The Original Belle de Jour

Advantages: A classic of French cinema
Disadvantages: Challenging at times

..."Belle de Jour" was Buñuel's first film in colour and claimed the Golden Lion at the 1967 Venice Film Festival. It also won the award for Best Foreign Film in 1968 from the New York Film Critics Circle. It was based loosely on a novel by Joseph Kessel and like all of Buñuel's films it's subject matter borders on the surreal and draws upon prevalent ideas of Freudian theory and the idea that our everyday reality is constantly being undermined by subconscious hidden urges. What concerned Buñuel in many of his films was the way in which our underlying emotional forces and acts of sublimation override conscious acts of free will. This was the movie that inspired the website and the book of the same name that in turn inspired the TV series 'Secret Diary Of A Call Girl '. The film portrays the double existence of Severine (Catherine Deneuve...

Creme de la Merde!

Advantages: This 'designer' cream will turn your bathroom shelf into a shrine.
Disadvantages: Your bank manager will none too pleased.

...I have read nothing but rave reviews about Creme de la Mer, an A-list moisturiser with an A-list price tag attached. Magazines are forever gushing about this product, associating words such as 'miracle' and 'extraordinary' to it so naturally curiosity got the better of me. Now although I can be somewhat of a beauty product victim and quite impulsive, even I know that forking out around eighty-eight quid for an itsy tub (30ml!) of this wonder is just plain ridiculous. So I sought to foreign lands, the U S of A to be precise, with hope that I could purchase the product for a fraction of the price - this was roughly about a year ago folks, before recession, when the value of the pound was almost two dollars, and so I managed to get hold of it at just over a hundred dollars with postage and packaging which luckily worked out no more than...

De Lovely

Advantages: romantic view on a real life edgy story
Disadvantages: far too sweet

...Fancy of musicals from 50s? Film ?De-Lovely? is Cole Porter?s bio and musical at the same time. ? De-Lovely? is quite standard, run-with-the-time film, with an interesting framing device. But not sort of "best hits" collection of Cole Porter's music, it is more like musical. Simple as that! With apparently many tunes performed by modern artists as Robbie Williams, Elvis Costello, Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow, and Natalie Cole, this is a treasure story of Cole?s music and memories. Sheryl Crow, Robbie Williams, and Elvis Costello are some of the main singers that interpret Cole Porter songs. Alanis Morissette proves once again, she can do more than a fem-rock on ?Let?s do It, Let?s Fall in Love? and Mick Hucknall who is worth watching, is singing ?I Love You?. It's that, what makes ?De-Lovely? worth seeing. With the help of a good...

Coup de Curl..

Advantages: It works like a treat
Disadvantages: It's quite expensive

...Boucoup de curls.....! I bought this mascara not so long ago from boots as a birthday present for the first time of which i was really happy as i had always wanted it! I could not buy this mascara any other time as it was too expensive for me so when buying it for the first time you can imagine how happy i was with my new expesive mascara - but does it live up to its' expectations? **What does it look like?** This mascara is contained within a double end casing with a lengthening brush for the fibres on one side and a thickening brush for the colour on the other, which together results in eyelashes which are lengthened, thickened, and curled, quickly and easily. One end of the mascara is white with the words, ' I lengthen my lashes to infinity ' and the other end black of which that says, ' I dress my lashes divinely...
