The magics of mandarin!

Advantages: smooth and creamy, delicious, fruity, healthy, cheap
Disadvantages: Aspartame and sugar!

...After discovering the amazing offer on the Müller Light yoghurts at Asda a few weeks back, with their '12 for £3' deal, I took advantage of this great price on several occasions, which gave me the chance to sample my way through each yoghurt flavour they had available. After a mix of opinion and experiences, I have managed to conclude my most preferred flavour; which is none other than the marvellous Mandarin Müller Light option! ***** When I first decided to sit myself down with the Mandarin yoghurt after my sandwich, I wasn't sure what to expect; I had never tasted mandarins before. I imagined it tasted perhaps slightly like oranges, but that was basing it purely on the image of the segments which could be seen on the foil lid of the pot. The only way to find out if I was correct or not was to open it up and find out! As I pulled...

Review of Muller Light Mandarin

Lord take me to Heaven. Take me to the Mandarin Oriental Prague.

Advantages: Luxury hotel. Brilliant food. Excellent service. Great location. Value for Money!
Disadvantages: Having to go home!

...I had visited Prague before, however this was for a lads holiday that only required us to get a bed for a night with all the drinking and high jinx that would be taking place, so when I returned with my partner I decided I required somewhere much more classy than a cheap apartment. This is where my love for Mandarin Oriental or ?MO? as it is fondly known by it?s guests comes into play. After reviewing trip advisor I discovered that there was a very good selection of five star properties within Prague and lone behold there on the list was ?Mandarin Oriental Prague?. You are probably wondering at this point what is so special about MO and why am I raving on so early in the review. Well please stick around and read on and you will hopefully begin to see why my love affair with Mandarin Oriental is as strong today as it has been for many...

Review of Hotel Mandarin Oriental, Prague

Muller Light Mandarin - A Fresh & Summery Yoghurt

Advantages: A quick, filling and flavourful snack
Disadvantages: Aspartame

...INTRODUCTION Muller Light fat free yoghurt used to be one of the first things on our weekly shopping list when we first started Slimming World. It?s ?free? on the plan (which means you can eat as much of it as you want ? in moderation) and given how often it's advertised and mentioned by their consultants, it?s practically in a food group of its own. However, ever since I discovered the potential dangers of aspartame (one of the sweeteners used in it), I have cut right back on them, opting for organic, natural products (like Yeo Valley) which manage to use non-artificial sweeteners. I still have them on occasion, as they have some great flavours, and one of my favourites is Mandarin. This flavour is sold on its own in a 200 gram pot, as well as part of the Tropical six pack that also includes Peach and Pineapple, and Apricot...

Bringing me moments of delight since 2005. Mandarin Oriental KL

Advantages: Luxury hotel. Brilliant food. Excellent service. Great location. Value for Money!
Disadvantages: Going home. If I could move in I would!

...Now before you think I have become a KL obsessive let me give you some background. I used to live In Kuala Lumpur the capital city of Malaysia whilst I went to University there. It is without doubt one of the best experiences of my life and I loved every minute of my studies there. Whilst I was there I got to grips with Asian culture and the Malaysian way of life and their fantastic levels of hospitality. At the same time I got to experience what I can only describe as some of the best hotels in the world. They are all so opulent, luxurious and with service that you just do not find in the western world. It was back in 2005 that my love affair with the Mandarin Oriental chain started and it all began in Kuala Lumpur. I have visited this property many times and shall write today based on my visit of February 2008, having not been back...

Review of Mandarin Oriental Hotel,Kuala Lumpur

Johnny English

Advantages: great entertainment and side splitting comedy
Disadvantages: none

...Director: Peter Howitt Producer: Tim Bevan, Mark Huffam and Eric Fellner. Writers: Neal Purvis, William Davies and Robert Wade. Stars: Rowan Atkinson, Ben Miller, John Malkovich and Natalie Imbruglia This cracking comedy was released in the summer of 2003, the main character, Johnny English, basing himself self on a character originally created for a well known credit card company adverts. Johnny English, (played by Rowan Atkinson both on the adverts and this movie) is a British secret service member, spoofing the likes of James Bond. Unfortunately, he is as competent as Inspector Jacques Clouseau (from the Pink Panther films) which does lead him into some tricky situations. His partner, Bough, pronounced 'Boff', (played by Ben Miller) is the silent hero of the movie, always allowing Johnny to take full credit...

Review of Johnny English (DVD)

English, Johnny English

Advantages: It was very funny
Disadvantages: Story, acting, plot etc

...Although I probably ought to have been revising, one of our tutors told us to take at least a whole day off a week. So a couple of weeks ago, I put impending Finals out of my mind, and spent a constructive Saturday (writing music reviews, playing pool, punting, watching a mate's band play Exeter's 'party in the park', Pizza Hut, cinema, George & Davies ice cream and a friends for relatively late night G&T and chat). So that's where Johnny English fits in to my revision schedule... The choice was X Men 2, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days and Johnny English, and you'll know by now which we chose... I knew it was a Bond-esque spy spoof starring Rowan Atkinson, but that was about it. My biggest concern was whether I'd be able to put Mr Bean out of my head - as it happened, not much problem, but I kept thinking of that guy from the Barclaycard...

The English Blue

Advantages: Beautiful to look at, good temperament usually.
Disadvantages: Bad experience with my auntie's cat

...My aunty had an English Blue cat. It was really beautiful to look at, but had a really nasty temperament. Whenever I would go to stroke this cute cat it would hiss and go to bite me. So I left it well alone. It would just sit there in a ball by itself. Oh it was lovely to my aunty, but that's the only person he was lovely to. If anyone else tried to get near him he would hiss at them. Many people show British Blues and have marvellous success. British Blues are very beautiful cats to look at. They have been described as a stocky cat with a woolly ash-grey coat and copper eyes. A full broad chest, short strong legs, rounded paws and a tail that is thick at the base and tapers slightly to a rounded tip to show off a "football player" physique. They certainly are very handsome cats to look at. I have heard people describe...

Review of Mandarin Oriental Hotel,Kuala Lumpur

The Names English...Johnny English

Advantages: Moderately funny. Natalie Imbruglia.
Disadvantages: Rowan Atkinson (you either love or hate him)

...~ ~ Movies have often been known to inspire commercials based on them, but it’s not too often that the opposite is the case. “Johnny English” (2003), the latest James Bond spy spoof currently doing the rounds of the cinemas, is the exception. From 1992 to 1997 Barclay’s Bank ran a series of humorous commercials starring Rowan Atkinson as an accident-prone spy, and it was the success of these commercials that ultimately led to Atkinson being offered the starring role in this new movie. ~ ~ Make no mistake, it’s Atkinson that you’ll see the most of in “Johnny English”. Not only does he take the lead role, but he appears on the cinema screen for about 95% of the time. In other words, this movie is a thinly disguised vehicle to show off the many talents of Rowan Atkinson, with the other...

Would Anyone Like Some English Tea With A Slice of American Pie ?

Advantages: Delightfully uplifting tea that can be enjoyed at anytime of the day (not just at breakfast time)
Disadvantages: If you are on a budget then Twinings Teas are a little costly ...

...try" ... When I returned to the computer an hour or so ago I completely scrapped my half written review and started again. I found the full lyrics to the song and decided to set myself the challenge of re-writing the entire song to include all the details about Twinings Breakfast Tea Bags that I had originally wanted to write about. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please feel free to sing along too ... it's a little more complex than "Polly Put The Kettle On" but am sure you all know the tune. Twinings English Breakfast Tea Bags (sung to the tune of American Pie) A long, long time ago ? I can still remember How that morning cuppa used to make me smile. And I knew if I had my choice That I could use my reviewer?s voice And, maybe, they?d be happy for a while. But October made...
