...~ ~ So what’s this, you may well ask? A music review from the “mad cabbie”!!!! Am I seeing right? Well, believe it or believe it not, the only reason I have never written in this category before is because no matter how hard I try to attempt to get across what I want to convey, it all seems to come out all cock-eyed. But listening to one of my favourite singers on the CD-Rom last night while I surfed around the Web, I realised that I couldn’t put off the evil day any longer. ~ ~ Some of you will probably remember a song from the late 1970’s called “Baker Street”, by a Scot’s singer called Gerry Rafferty. If you listen to the radio at all you can hardly have missed it, as even now there is hardly a day passes that it is not played at some point. I believe there was even a cover... Read review

Advantages: Great selection, top quality..
Disadvantages: ..except carton - yuck!

...that will stop them. Petrol stations are also trying to nab M&S’ business, but are miserably failing. The un-specialist food shops are trying to sell food, but there’s no point in even trying – or buying what they sell, because it’s often dry and tends to taste pretty nasty.. Rebranding.. All the people at M&S’ Baker Street HQ wanted to have all of the snacks known commonly known under one ‘brand’. So they scrapped StMichael (thank God) and their snack selection is now called (breath in) Marks & Spencer Food to Go.. And, of course, you have to remember it’s two dots after the Go, not three – that’s why I’m only using two dots in this opinion. You can identify FtG rather easily – it comes in a pack with a slanted ‘label’ which is silver and green... Read review

...BAKERS COMPLETE DOG FOOD ADVERTS -------------------------------------------------------------------- I have chosen to right a review on three of the Bakers Complete adverts that I feel are the most entertaining, and manage to put the product across in the most entertaining way. The makers of Bakers complete had the idea for the Bakers Complete Spokes-Dog breed in 1994, when they first had the idea of advertising this way. The Idea being that they were not trying to promote a dog food for pampered dogs. That is why the Baker's dog is actually a shaggy longhaired crossbreed. Bakers Complete is manufactured by Purina Advert One --------------- The ad starts with a game show set up. A narrator gives the commentary on the ad as we watch what is happening he says "Give your dog Bakers Complete, and if he doesn't love it, we... Read review

Disadvantages: Can be pricey

..., not much... I walk out of the store with my chicken in a food bag, white with marks and spencers written on in green and my gifts in the usual green bag. Would I recommend it, No I still do not think they have made enough changes to bring in more younger people. The prices are way to high...

Advantages: At last, someone famous who doesn't find themselves brilliant
Disadvantages: Rather stiff and formal in tone

...Along with many of my generation, Tom Baker was "my" Doctor Who. By this, I mean that he was the first Doctor I knew about and will always be the person I first think of as playing the role, despite Christopher Ecclestone's best efforts recently. Whilst those slightly older than I may recall William Hartnell and Jon Pertwee, they were before my time and I didn't enjoy anyone's roles as the Doctor as much after Tom Baker as I did his. I may not be alone in this remembrance of Tom Baker's Doctor Who, either. After all, he played the Doctor for a lot longer than anyone else did, thereby giving him access to a wider audience than those before or since. Plus, he was playing the role at a time when the series was really rather popular and so had a potentially larger audience than many. What I'd never really stopped to wonder was what Tom...

Advantages: A good variety of biscuits
Disadvantages: Very expensive. A lot of the biscuits were burned.

...of dough, rolled into a cylindrical shape. The surface has a golden colouring, but oh no, the edges are again overly browned, leaving me wondering whether the Marks and Spencer baker had an off day when he was cooking this batch. The biscuit is so delicate that when the teeth come into contact with the tube, it practically falls away and positively melts in the mouth. First impressions were misleading; the taste of this is superb. A rich buttery flavour fills my mouth, leaving the biscuit to melt on the tongue. Beautiful.

Advantages: Mmm
Disadvantages: None

...Should I have been offended at Christmas when I recieved over 5 different bottles of aftershave from different people? Well that's what comes of having three sisters, a girlfriend and a Mum! Now no longer living at home means that I can get away with only wearing the ones given to me by my family when I go around, but the one my girlfriend gave me-let's just say I had little choice in whether I wear it or not! So it's a good job that I liked it really. I like clean, fresh smelling scents that are not too overpowering and Ted Baker SkinWear certainly fits into that category.I would describe the smell as being quite fruity and in particular, lemony, but with warm undertones. I have been informed that this is what is called the *Base Notes*, the scent that remains after the intial smell has gone away. Here are all the notes in all... Read review
