Blades, foils and circular saws

Advantages: mains/battery with fast charge, 50 minute battery life
Disadvantages: tricky on/off switch

...the 70's shaving technology was not the greatest and anyone with sensitive skin with lots of moles and whose bread grew at an incredible rate was not well catered for. I tried wet shaving for nearly 4 years in that time removing the tops off 3 moles and having permanent shaving rash. The offerings from Gillette and Wilkinson Sword were facial torture for me so it was then I sneaked a go on my Dads Philishave. He had bought this shaver was back in the 60's and hardly used it, and after a while it seemed an acceptable alternative to the daily trials of wet shaving. But it needed constant cleaning and replacement of blades. I soon gave up on it and went back to wet shaving again. It was on my 21st birthday that I was given a Braun foil razor. I eagerly unboxed it, charged it and disappeared into the bathroom for what I thought would be...

Review of Philips HQ 8160 Speed XL

To glam things up with foil !

Advantages: Some chocolate in there...
Disadvantages: Lots of sugar and high dental bills...

...We bought a box of these for Christmas and for some reason you don't really see them around at other times of the year, or is it just me...? Of course, the biscuits have been long finished, but we've kept the tin box for storing odd bits. This large tin contains 12 varieties of biscuits covered in milk, plain chocolate and crèmes. Generally, there are about 3-4 of each of the varieties all placed in their own compartment try. There are two trays, so in essence it's almost like having two packets of biscuits. Milk Chocolate Cream Crumble - 8/10 -------------------------------------- This thick round biscuit comes with chocolate crème filling, there are two chocolate biscuit layers that sandwich the chocolate crème filling and the whole of this thick biscuit is entirely covered in milk chocolate and wrapped in a shiny red foil...

Yummy Foils By Scribble

Advantages: see op
Disadvantages: see op

...Purrrrs all, this is Scribble, after watching my Mummy KathrynPenguin spending hours on this computer I've finally fathomed out how the damned thing works. This is my first opinion so please be nice to me after all I am cute and cuddly. Now this weekend our "Aunty Poppy" is staying with us, she is lovely Grannies cat and its granny that’s lovely not Poppy. Poppy is a big fat bully who likes to hiss at me but one bonus of her staying here is that Granny brings a load of Felix foil packs for her to eat. Now we don't normally get these here as Mummy says they are too expensive for us to eat but that Poppy is very spoiled and gets whatever she likes. I like to eat out of Poppy's bowl, in fact I like to eat out of any bowl. Mummy calls me guzzle guts or fat rat because I eat a lot more than my sister, Honey. As far as food...

Review of Felix

What to do with kitchen foil and a knife

Advantages: Familiar chocolates and brands, bound to be a hit
Disadvantages: Over-used as gifts, get very boring, not many varieties

..., and put them in small foil containers and unwrap them at your own leisure. As I said before, there are nine individual kinds of sweet in ‘Celebrations’, which I will now review individually. Malteasers – Crisped rice and honeycomb wrapped in delicious chocolate. Very crunchy, and much nicer than normal Maltesers. These are available on their own in certain stores. By far my favourite of the lot. 9/10 Galaxy – The classic Galaxy chocolate, in one chunk portions. Creamy and delicious. But again, why not just buy a bar? 8/10 Mars – The normal Mars bar taste of nougat, caramel and chocolate, only slightly less caramel and chocolate than usual, so not as nice as the normal bars. 6/10 Snickers – Peanuts, caramel and chocolate. And nougat. Again. As with the Mars, the real taste of the bar hasn’...

Review of Mars Celebrations

why has your dog got foil on its feet?

Advantages: er! whats that you say?
Disadvantages: feeling a bit stupid sometimes

...changing light bulbs for instance or reaching up for some item on a high shelf. Vertigo means that the person who faints or weaves about in front of you is not necessarily drunk!! Contrary to popular opinion a hat does not particular help, since the link between the nerves of the eyes and the ears means that balance is affected by looking at such things as the sea moving or gusts of wind. 3) Confusion: to explain the title of the op! Generally speaking, when the nerves of the ear get damaged it become difficult to distinguish between the soft consonants, such as f, v, and s, and the hard consonants, B, D and V. Hence it is possible to hear soil as foil or boil!! Whilst this can be very amusing at times, it does lead to a lessening of confidence and the problem becomes worse in a noisy environment where you are...
