Get out and about

Advantages: 500 free days out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Disadvantages: Depending on where you live there may not be lots of ideas

...This pocket sized guide is filled with 500 free days out in Britain. It was first released in 2005 and reprinted in 2006, but I have not found that any of the recommendations are out of date (I mean, none have closed in the meantime). The book costs £4.99, but you shoudl be able to get hold of a copy much cheaper than this. Mine was only £1.00 from The Works. It's worth the fiver, but obviously the cheaper it is, the better the value. The book is divided into alphabetically organised sections. It is organised first by country (England first, then Scotland, next Wales, lastly the Republic of Ireland), then by county within that country, again in alphabetical order. The name of the county is written down the side of the page so it's really easy to check you're still looking in the right place, especially on the pages where two counties...

Review of AA Free Days Out

Out and about

Advantages: storytelling
Disadvantages: dated look and feel, anticipation of lines, re-watchability

...and is generally shown for a split second and then disappears. The audio is quite bad in terms of volume, is it extremely quiet in some places and found myself raising and lowering the volume on more than one occasion. Overall If you can look past the dated clothes and the few problems with the picture and sound the actual story is well laid out and very well executed, it is well acted although sometimes the timing of the lines are such that you can almost feel one actor waiting for the other to stop before delivering their own lines. I would be concerned about re-watch-ability value, after all a film is anything between 1.5 and 2 hours for a regular film whereas this involves a but more time investment, But for those that enjoy the Sweeney and Minder and other programs of that ilk, I thoroughly recommend this. This is currently...

Review of Out and About - Shirley Hughes

Last chance to find out more about me.

Advantages: Oooh, some more about me.
Disadvantages: See above

...This is another challenge op - I do like these, but they do take some thinking about. 1) Do you agree with Open Relationships? Yes, so long as everyone knows exactly where they stand, and are emotionally independant. If someone gets too involved, then people get hurt, which isn't nice. 2) Have you ever had an Open Relationship? Sort of. Let me explain. I have had two boyfriends in the past who were in an open relationship - without ever telling me!! Soon dumped them, let me tell you. Also had a sort of casual shagging arrangement with a male friend that worked really well at the time. We're still good friends, although he is totally amoral, and thinks we should still have sex with no strings, totally disregarding my impending nuptials. Being the forthright strong willed woman of substantial moral fibre that I am, I...

Review of All About Me

A great double buggy

Advantages: Light and manoeuverable
Disadvantages: Bulky and a bit expensive

...Out'n'About Nipper Double 360 Pushchair Smug. Now that's not a word I used to spend much time thinking about as a young man but as I grow older it is something that appears more and more. I blame Bridget Jones and its effect on my wife's generation. I think it was here that the term 'smug marrieds' first came to prominence and how the eponymous singleton would shrink under the pitying gaze of married friends. In fact 'smug married' is only one of several circles of smugness that appear on life's journey. It starts with 'smug couples' looking down on their single friends, moves on to 'smug couples living together' through 'smug married' and into 'smug parents'. Each looks down on the previous with a knowing gaze, nodding sagely and saying 'don't worry, your time will come'. I have now travelled through several rungs of this smugness...

Review of All About Me

* Standing Up , Standing Out *

Advantages: Great For Katie Fans!
Disadvantages: Seen A Lot Of It Before!

...or not , Standing Out is the fourth non fictional book from Katie. This book was released in the United Kingdom on 22nd October 2009. This book is a kind of autobiography , yet it is mainly based on fashion and Katie's looks and beauty/fashion tips. This book contains two hundred and eight pages and is available to buy from Amazon for £10. If I'm honest , when I first heard about this book , I thought it was going to be exactly what Victoria Beckham did ; a book with fashion tips. However , Katie's version is a little bit different as the book is mainly based on her views on how her fashion has changed and so on. However , I wouldn't really call this a style guide because it isnt' all about style. In this book , Katie rambles on about her life as well as fashion. She has tried to 'hand out' some useful tips , but most of them I already knew...

Review of Standing Out - Katie Price

Perfect for twins on the go

Advantages: VERY easy to steer; Lightweight; Newborn to 3+;
Disadvantages: Doesn't fit all car boots

...You're having two!! The immortal words of the sonographer at our 3 month scan June 2006. From this point onwards I became a father-of-twins-to-be possessed. I scoured the net for everything twinlike, twinable, twinalicious and twintastic. High on my agenda would be the mode of transport for the new arrivals. I've always been into the rugged outdoors look to the buggies and the arrival of the 3 wheelers over the last decade have certainly caught my attention. With this in mind I tasked myself with looking for a 3-wheeled, twin, all-terrain vehicle. The chariot for my children. The original Out 'N About Nipper caught my eye back in June/July 2006 as a light-weight rugged and well-proportioned vehicle. I was keen to check out it's features and handling, however, on test driving it I was disappointed with its steering. In...

Review of Nipper Out n About 360

Do you want to find out more about me?

Advantages: A few details about me...
Disadvantages: Am I interesting enough?

...? Hmm, I'm not sure. Blueduck I think or Buzios. Have you ever been convicted of a crime? I did once get a caution for fare evasion! Which single store would you choose to max out your credit card? Hmm, maybe a bookstore of some sort or somewhere like Mash on Oxford Street. What do you do most often when you are bored? Play ISS Pro Evolution 2 on the playstation (footie game) or chat on the Guardian talkboards or find out current political stuff or stuff about Palestine. Most annoying thing people ask me? You what, it's really annoying, I can't remember! Bedtime? Depends on what I'm doing the next day but usually from about 12am to 1:30am. Favourite TV show? I can't wait for the next series of Spaced and the League of Gentlemen are damn fine. Last person you went out to dinner with? Two days ago...
