There is smeg on my hood

Advantages: Sucks up fumes
Disadvantages: Made by SMEG

...I can`t believe that I am actually sitting here writing an opinion on a cooker hood. What the Smeg can I possibly say that will make anyone out there want to buy a Smeg KSEIV95X cooker hood ? And who the hell would want to put anything in their kitchen with the word SMEG emblazoned across it. The modern homes exhibition will never be the same again. Beautiful fitted kitchens that contain more SMEG than a Thailand brothel. It is a hood, it is made by Smeg, it goes above the cooker and it sucks out all the unwanted fumes that make your nice clean home smell like a backstreet greasy spoon diner. And before anyone asks me, yes, I do get commission for the number of times I include the name SMEG in my op (I wish). lmao. The KSEIV95X cooker hood from Smeg (god, I hate saying that word) is quite simply the Rolls Royce of cooker hoods...

ROBIN HOOD'S BAY

Advantages: Beautifully preserved and evocative
Disadvantages: STEEP

...I've always wondered why Robin Hood's Bay was in North Yorkshire and not in Nottinghamshire. One explanation might be that Nottinghamshire, being landlocked, is not over-endowed with bays. Another is the sheer logistics of moving it from one county to another. Robin Hood's Bay is around 5 miles south of Whitby, and some 15 miles north of Scarborough on the North Sea coast of North Yorks. I've researched a little, and I can find no explanation of why this place has such an interesting name - it doesn't matter anyway. There are records dating back from 1536, apparently, of a small settlement of around 50 houses and 20 fishing boats but nothing about its namesake. Besides, the locals prefer to call it Bay Town. There may be some tenuous connection to the 'Prince of Thieves' though. Fishing has always been the mainstay of this...

father christmas is not coming down this chimney

Advantages: clean simple lines, good price
Disadvantages: none so far

...The world of cooker hoods can be a confusing and frustrating place to be. The choice is endless and the price you can pay is verging on the ridiculous. So what type of hood and how much to pay to complete my purchase of kitchen appliances? The brief from Mrs Scenic was a chimney hood. I did try to steer her toward the flat rear vented type, but she was having none of it. Now with chimney hoods you can pay anything up to £300 and on for the more expensive makes. Luckily I was in charge of the budget and anything over £150 was out of the running, so I was very pleased to see this Baumatic in the Homebase catalogue for £99.99. After playing around with kitchen unit combinations for about 2 hours I just tacked this hood onto the list and thought "job done". Hindsight is a wonderful thing, if I had checked the spec's of the hoods I...

My New Addiction - Robin Hood?

Advantages: Dramatic, Good Acting, Fantastic Soundtrack, Brilliant Plot!
Disadvantages: Would have loved more Special Features :(

...forced to give up his lands and title, which he proudly does for his people. Robin and his servant and best friend Much, gather up a faithful gang of outlaws to beat the sheriff. They get Little John, Will Scarlett and Allan Dale to defeat the sheriff and regain peace to the land. But even with Robins cunning and talent with a bow and arrow, can he really defeat the Sheriff and his Black Knight Sir Guy of Gisborne. While of course juggling falling in love with Maid Marion, to whom she is the daughter of the previous Sheriff of Nottingham, who is now ill.

Morphy Richards Rice cooker - Too clever for me!

Advantages: An easy way to cook rice dishes
Disadvantages: Not suitable for small families due to the minimum cooking quantity

...A few months ago I read a review about a rice cooker and thought that, yes I could do with one of them. I settled on the Morphy Richards 48744 as to be honest that was the only one offered on the fact finders website and I thought I would use up some of my points. . The Rice and Pasta cooker is a mirrored silver colour with black handles with a toughened glass lid with a black handle and a steam hole. The cooker is 21 cm high without lid or 24cm with the lid and 28cm in diameter plus handles makes it 36cm. The cable is 90cm long. It fits nicely into one of my top wall mounted kitchen cabinets if the lid is turned upside down. The cooker is supplied with a pasta cooking pad, which is like a round piece of clear/white rubber with holes in it, a plastic measuring beaker and a small plastic white spatula. Inside the machine is a large...

Review of Morphy Richards 48744 RICE Cooker

A Fantastic Flying Finale For Our Hero Hood!

Advantages: Fantastic Acting, Drama, Stories, Action, Fight Scenes, Romance and Price
Disadvantages: Difficult to understand if haven't watched first volumes.

...on this you can really see the story develop. Stars Jonas Armstrong - Who stunningly plays the witty Robin Hood in the series. The fairly unknown actor who has been in such TV programmes as 'Teachers' and 'Ghost Sqaud'. However don't let that put you off, this really is his big break and expect you will see the young actor very soon in other projects, after Robin Hood. He is an excellent actor, playing Hood passionately yet cheekily at times. I really enjoyed watching him portray Hood, as he was able to show another side that I had not yet seen yet. Can't wait to see him in the next series playing Robin Hood, he is actually now one of my favourite actors. Keith Allen - I love Keith Allen, who plays the ruthless Sheriff of Nottingham brilliantly. One of my favourite characters in the series as Allan plays him so cruelly yet...

Painless extractions

Advantages: Effective air extraction or recirculation at a reasonable price and with good illumination.
Disadvantages: Noisy on highest setting and fitted door can obscure view of hob if you're tall.

...Sunday breakfast in the Magee household is usually kedgeree. I make it by frying some onions in butter, adding curry powder, rice and fish stock and then, when all that's cooked, stirring in smoked haddock, hard-boiled eggs and parsley. It tastes delightful, but it can leave your home smelling like a cross between the local chip shop and a curry house unless you've got a very good cooker hood. I've got a very good cooker hood. I cooked in my old kitchen for twenty years with nothing more in the way of ventilation than an open window or even a door if it was the chutney-making season, so when I planned my new kitchen the hood wasn't at the top of my list of priorities. I left the choice to the kitchen designer, asking only that it was effective and that it wasn't too obviously a cooker hood. He suggested the Siemens LE64130GB...

Robin Hood mixes comedy, romance and action

Advantages: Great stuff
Disadvantages: A few errors, but nothing major

...Robin Hood Prince of Thieves is the 1991 take on the legend of Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. This film was hailed as one of the biggest films of the 1990s, especially by women (!) and features an all star cast and a soundtrack including Bryan Adams' 'Everything I do' which spent about a million weeks at number 1 in the charts. Director Kevin Reynolds gives us a rollicking feature length display of sword fighting, comedy, action and romance, and the cast do as is required and give us a damn good film. Robin of Locksley (Kevin Costner) has been away fighting in the Crusades. Escaping with a Moor named Azeem (Morgan Freeman) he heads back to his native England after many years to see his father and live out the rest of his life in peace. Not so much luck! In the King's absence, his evil brother John has taken...

Visit Robin Hoods Bay, a quirky picturesque village just outside

Advantages: Outstanding scenery, themed weekends, friendly locals, sea air!
Disadvantages: Absolutely none - oh the hill!

...something on all year round! What are you waiting for?! Get booking! Did you know...: Robin Hood's Bay is the setting for the Bramblewick books by the author Leo Walmsley, who was educated in the schoolroom of the old Wesleyan Chapel, in the lower village. Folklore tells us that Robin Hood kept a couple of boats here, so that, if things got "too hot" for him in Sherwood Forest, he could escape to the continent!...
