A Range of Accessories but It's Too Small!

Advantages: a large range of accessories, good bags
Disadvantages: the shop is too small, it's overpriced for what it is

...Claires Accessories is a shop MORE for teenagers but adults and younger children do tend to find something in there to their liking. I'm not a regular shopper at Claires and when I go shopping I normall y just have a quick browse and leave or buy something. Layout and Presentation Claires Accessories is a very small shop and it is filled to the brim with accessories. Every single wall is covered with shelfs or hooks with bags and other things hung on them. Theres also rotating display racks with loads of earings. The lighiting is okay, it's not too bright nor is it dim. It's a bit claustrophobic exspecially when it's crowded. Presentation wise, it's a bit messy and staff could put a bit more effort into keeping the shop tidy. Selection and Range There is a range of accessories in Claires, these are bracelets, neclaces, earings...

small talk

Advantages: great product
Disadvantages: expensive

...Tigi Bedhead is one of the greatest products that I have used in a long time with products for every hair colour and type you will always have an option of different products to use for every style that you want to achieve. Tigi Bedhead Small Talk is a three in one cream that is used to thicken your hair adding volume and body to it, styles the hair to the look that you want and it also gives your hair some life and makes it look bigger instead of flat and lifeless. This product is best used I found on wet hair as the product is activated quicker and you get better results. It also says it can be used on dry hair but I did not really notice much of a difference. Use a minimal amount of this product for maximum results as it works well and having blonde hair I find adding too much of a product make my hair look dirty, which is not...

Good Things come in Small packages!

Advantages: An easy watch, great actors, enjoyable
Disadvantages: None unless you don't like choirs and music!

...Despite having hundreds of channels on our Sky television service, there is seldom anything to watch on there which is often disappointing. We often sit watching DVDs or just reading because there is nothing to watch, so when something of interest comes on, I set it to record and look forward to watching it on a quiet evening. I came across "All the Small Things" by chance when skimming through the TV Guide and thought it sounded more watchable than 90% of the rubbish on. I got around to watching the first episode days after it started and was hooked. The show has now finished, but it was a delightful watch and I hope it'll be back for a second series. All The Small Things was a drama shown in April and May on BBC1 at 9pm for one hour. There were 6 episodes in total, and it hasn't been confirmed whether it will be back or not...

Small but Not mighty

Advantages: smells nice
Disadvantages: does not remove basic stains

...This is not my usual washing choice but as I had run out of my usual and did not fancy a trip to Tesco just for washing powder then I went to my local shop and this was the only decent product on the shelf. I was a little dubious about it as the bottle is small and it is a liquid where as I normally use powder but I decided to give it a go. ~~THE BOTTLE~~ The bottle is plastic and it is white with a lovely pattern of orange streamers all around the side with pictures of tangerines at the bottom. The title of the product is in the middle in blue and orange lettering. The back of the bottle has all the relevant info about the washing powder including, required amounts, directions for use, ingredients and contact info if you have any problems with the liquid. The top of the bottle is bright orange and this is the measuring cap which...

Costner strikes lucky on the Open Range

Advantages: Greatactingsanddirecting
Disadvantages: Very long, simple plot

...The other night I put my feet up with a good bottle of wine and scoured my DVD collection for something I was in the mood for. A while back, I had seen 'Open Range' for sale in a Virgin outlet store for £2, and thought 'Why not?' Deciding I was in the mood for a Western, I popped it in the DVD player and sat back, wondering how long I would last before getting bored. Yet I was surprised to find myself, half an hour later, on the edge of my seat, following a good plotline and some brilliant acting. Brief Overview 'Open Range' is the tale of a group of free grazing cattle owners. It has Kevin Costner and Robert Duvall as the billing leads, with a host of recognisables in the support cast, including Annette Benning and Michael Gambon. The Plot Four free grazers, including Charley Waite (Costner) and Boss Spearman (Duvall), come...

Review of Open Range (DVD)

Small can be mighty!

Advantages: It works and smells nice
Disadvantages: It is not biodegradable

...I purchased Persil Small & Mighty Biological a few weeks ago as it was on offer at Sainsbury's, it was just under £3 considering the price is £3.65 at Tesco. I usually tend to buy washing powders / liquids that are biodegradable and natural but one downside I noticed is that whites don't seem to be really white anymore so I thought to switch to an ordinary product for my whites and keep on using a nature kind option for my colours / blacks which is non-bio. I am not really pleased about this choice but I feel that towels, bed sheets and sports gear really needs to be deep clean... THE PRODUCT This washing liquid comes in a plastic bottle containing 730 ml of product enough for 20 washes. The product is concentrated which means you need less quantity than ordinary washing liquids. When I twist the cap off this reveals a dense...

Small Minded Small Island?

Advantages: Historical details, clever method of narration
Disadvantages: Poorly developed, can be patronising

...Andrea Levy's "Small Island" uses the recollections of four central characters against the background of the first wave of immigration from the Caribbean in the years after the Second World War to tell a story of racism, prejudice and, ultimately, hope for the future. The story weaves between the four characters with each one telling their part of the story in the first person; if that sounds like a lot of narrators, don't worry, the characters are sufficiently well developed and distinct from one another not to be easily confused and each adds a new dimension to our understanding of the story. BACKGROUND Thousands of men from the Caribbean - part of the British Commonwealth - volunteered for the British Armed Forces during the Second World War; most had never been to Britain and did not have any British blood but they referred...

Extend your Range

Advantages: Easy to install and use
Disadvantages: no major disadvantages found

...points, with the push of a button. When used in access-point mode and connected to a wired router, the Range Extender adds wireless capability to an existing network. This allows you to expand Internet access throughout a home or small offi ce without running cumbersome Ethernet cables between computers' I have to say that the unit was very easy to set up. It comes with an installation sheet which is very easy to follow and as I wanted to use the unit as a range extender rather than as an access point, there was no need to install any software. Installation was simply a matter of connecting the unit to the mains, positioning it next to the router/modem and pressing the search button. The scan LED glows red for awhile until it locates the signal from the router/modem at which stage it turns green. The router/modem having then been...

Tigi Bed Head Small Talk-This little bottle talks volumes!

Advantages: smell, packaging, lasts ages, lives up to its claims, multi-use
Disadvantages: nothing major

...My experience of this quirky little product. RRP £12.45. Although you can get it for between £6-10 on various beauty sites such as Lookfantastic.com or gorgeousshop.co.uk or Salonskincare.co.uk amongst others. There are often offers on this range. I first started using Tigi products when I bought the Dumb Blonde shampo/conditioner in a local hairdressers-Highly recommended. I came across this little Gem in TK MAXX and was intrigued by its berry-like packaging. Tigi is well known for its stylish packaging and in my opinion the Bed Head range does require a sense of humour, its packaging is quirky and bold as are its statements. In my opinion the products live up to it. Living in this wonderful British climate, my hair seems to go from flat and frizzy in the summer to dry in the winter. My main problem is that whist I have lots...

Review of TIGI Bed Head Small Talk Thickifier, Energizer, Stylizer

Small and definitely mighty.

Advantages: Leaves washing cleaner and fresher.
Disadvantages: None.

...Persil Small & Mighty Biological is a next generation liquid detergent which is 2x concentrated. Small & Mighty comes in a 730 ml plastic bottle measuring 10in/26cm in height which is half the size of the current dilute liquid bottles. The lid is an easy to screw off type and the bottle has an hourglass shape which makes it easier to grip. I find the smaller bottle size and shape more convenient compared to the bulkier dilute bottles especially for storing in the cupboard. The lid /cap of the bottle hold's the exact measurement for I whole wash load. And due to the liquid being 2x concentrated it is thick and smells quite strong but not overwhelming just a fresh clean smell and this is only when pouring from the bottle as the smell is lesser when the wash is actually in progress and when its finished. Since I've started...
