Roses are Red....

Advantages: Beautiful flowers, wonderful variety
Disadvantages: Take a lot of care

...As part of my review into roses, I plan to review the main areas of rose growing in detail. The areas that I will cover are, how to design gardens to incorporate roses, the preparation of the soil and the physical planting of roses and the routine care required for rose growing. Unfortunately, I think this may be quite a long review, as I have so much to say about them! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESIGNING WITH ROSES -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The beauty of the rose family is that it doesn't matter whether you choose old garden roses, for their gracious growing habit, foliage and scent, or whether you choose to grow modern roses for their very long flowering season or their fantastic blooms, the massive diversity of the rose family means...

Review of Roses

Rose Fantastique

Advantages: Great quality, innovative - great shades available
Disadvantages: This shade is not easy to get your hands on,

...ensure that it's safe to use. Depending on how sharp you like your point, you shouldn't need to sharpen this too often either, so you'll definitely get your money's worth out of this pencil. Price and Availability Speaking of getting your money's worth...the Bourjois Khôl & Contour eye-liner pencil retails at £4.20 at Boots. However, getting your hand on the Rose Fantaisiste shade could prove tricky, since it's not available on the Boots website. I can't say whether or not it is still available in store, as I haven't had any reason to look out for it since I bought it. I've had mine for over a year now and it's still going strong. If you're interested in other shades, the Boots website has 7 different shades (albeit it two different black shades and their new, double-ended black and white Khôl Contour pencil). The Bourjois website...

Review of Bourjois Khol & Contour Eyeliner Pencil 08 Rose Fantaisiste

Why are they called Roses?

Advantages: Lovely cadbury chocolate
Disadvantages: Centres not as good as they used to be.

...Before Christmas several shops had offers for tins of chocolates and I bought a big tin of Cadbury Roses. We are still digging into them but I have sampled them all, even the ones I dislike! My tin contained 1.05kg, I do wish I had counted how many chocolates were in the tin, but on second thoughts I don't want to know how many we have consumed although they have been shared with friends and family! Best before date is April 2009, I was surprised to see the contents are stamped on the base although different chocolates could be replaced if necessary. There is information on the makers Cadbury Trebor Bassett and contact details, if you need to complain. Although it does say there could be a white bloom if the chocolates have been left in the sun or exposed to heat, which is harmless. There is a list of ingredients and a note that Soya...

Review of The Purple Rose Of Cairo (DVD)

Do you prefer daisies or roses?

Advantages: Versatility, great flavours, high quality
Disadvantages: No strong smell

...Every now and then, my dear mum decides to treat us. Whether its on a day out, a trip to the cinema or a special meal for tea, she usually makes a big effot at least once every two to three weeks. I love these times, when me, my mum and two younger brothers go out for a posh meal to a big fancy restuarant or we drive 3 hours to a theme park and spend the night in a hotel. Sometimes though my mum is slightly tight for money and has to put the treat off untill the next week, although she doesnt do this often, when she does she feels really bad and she always trys to make it up to us- introduce Cadburys Roses. Couple of months back, my mum had just paid for a trip to Germany and was slightly strapped for cash and so our monthly treat was going to have to wait. So, around that time when she had just popped to the shop for milk...

Review of Cadbury Roses

Roses, Roses Everywhere!

Advantages: Traditional Christmas Chocolates
Disadvantages: There are none left by New Year

...The time for celebrating the birth of Jesus is approaching and for some reason, I know not why, we seem to eat more chocolate at this time of year than any other. Go round any supermarket at this time and there are random heaps of tins in all corners, they are on special offer, or two for one offers, or just there, but you can't miss them. Our favourite and the most traditional that we can remember are Cadburys Roses. When the children were little my parents always bought us a tin for Christmas and we opened it on Christmas Eve, there was nothing left in the tin by new years eve but by then we had had enough chocolates to last us most of January. My birthday falls in the second half of January anyway so by the time we got the fancy for chocolate back I usually got some which we could share. Now, over the years we have seen...

Review of Cadbury Roses

A rose on the rockery.

Advantages: Good for a rockery and excellent for wild life .
Disadvantages: none

...A rock rose is a Plant that many of you may have in your garden. The rock roses Helianthemum are from the genus cistus. There are about 17 of this species from the wild rockrose Helianthemum nummularium to the many cultivated plants we see in our gardens and parks. Rockroses are small to medium sized shrubs. As you can detect from the name these plants like a rock soil to grow on and are a useful plant in the rock garden. We have a couple growing on ours they like a well drained soil. They like the chalk soil I live on and do like to be watered occasionally The rock rose is really a native from the Mediterranean area and it likes a sunny position. This plant is not common in Cornwall or in west Scotland but grows well in other parts of the country .Although the name is rock rose this plant is not a rose but the flowers are rose...

Review of Rock Rose

ROSE RED 2002

Advantages: Creepy, Large, Mysterious and a story that must be told.
Disadvantages: It was rather long!

...SYNOPSIS = Dr. Joyce Reardon, a psychology professor, leads a team of six psychics into an isolated mansion known as Rose Red. Her efforts resurrected the spirit of former owner Ellen Rimbauer and soon, the discovery of the horrifying secrets of those who lived and died there. Never be alone, as the house is forever changing and growing. An exit may be there for one minute and the next minute may be gone... REVIEW = As much of a horror film fan, I am not always keen on Stephen King's materials. I often find them too slow and the ending seems to be weak at times. However, I thought I will give 'Rose Red' a try as I love movies about haunting houses (being a big fan of 'Most Haunted'). The duration of the film was approximately 4 hours long. As I was so gripped by the movie, I watch it all at once and it did not felt it was...

Review of Rose Red (DVD)

An English Rose

Advantages: See text of opinion
Disadvantages: See text of opinion

...~ ~ I just couldn’t let the week pass without writing something about this young British golfer, Justin Rose, from Hampshire in England. (Although he was born in Johannesburg in South Africa in 1980) Those of you who follow golf at all will probably remember his famous exploits at the British Open Championship at Royal Birkdale in 1998, when as a eighteen-year-old amateur, he came very close to winning the famous old “Claret Jug” outright at his first attempt, eventually finishing fourth in a field that included all the best professional golfers in the world. The single shot that comes readily to mind is when he chipped into the hole at the very last hole in the Championship from about 100 yards from the green, in front of a worldwide audience of millions. His reaction was a joy to behold, as he literally nearly leapt...

Review of Justin Rose

A Rose Among Thorns?!

Advantages: Great Mix of Songs, Fantastic Voice, 18 Tracks!
Disadvantages: One or Two Weak Links!

...Over Christmas while relaxing in the luxuries home brings (including hot running water at all tips, a constantly filled fridge and a lack of empty pizza boxes cluttered over the furniture) I began to update and improve my CD collection and downloaded quite a few new albums ? naughty I know! Ashanti?s new release ?Concrete Rose? has fast become one of the most played albums in my rather battered CD player since then! Concrete Rose was released on 13th December 2004 in the UK and is her 3rd album (previous releases include Ashanti 2002 and Chapter II 2003). She was born in 1980 in New York City and is typical of most of the American music scene ? featuring on shows such as The Disney Show as a child. She first blasted to fame thanks to her duet with Ja Rule ?It?s About Time? as well as multiple other duets with artists such as Fat Joe...
