Timmy Time!

Advantages: gr8 new show
Disadvantages: none

...Timmy Time............. Timmy Time is a new programme that is aired on the cbeebies channel. It is shown at 9 am and repeated again later in the afternoon and is so enjoyable Jack doesn't mind watching it over and over again. It is from the makers of the well known Shaun the sheep but Timmy is a younger lamb who attends nursery school with all his small animal friends. He has a friend who is a pig, an owl, another lamb a cat and a hedgehog. There are no words in the programme but the animals make the associated noise such as the pig snorts a lot in the right places giving you an idea of what would be said if they were talking. The stories are easy to follow and in my opinion doesn't need any words. The theme tune is very catchy just as the Shaun the sheep one was and Jack goes mad when it comes on as it is a show that...

Review of Timmy Time

Timmy Time Is Time For Children

Advantages: Great for children to learn from, fun, entertaining and compelling
Disadvantages: Addictive

...My 3 year old daughter goes through stages of programmes and at the moment she is very much into Timmy Time. No doubt she will be into something else soon, but she does love this Timmy Time DVD that has been played over and over again. It is a cute show with different characters in it from a little sheep, a dog, a pig, an owl, a duck, a pelican and a cat. You can watch Timmy Time on Cbeebies, but if you would like all the episodes together then you need to purchase the DVD. Little lamb Timmy comes from the popular 'Shaun the Sheep' show, but now Timmy has a show all of his own. It was a good decision that the producers made to explore the character of Timmy further. Timmy is very cute and cuddly but, he is immature and has lot's to learn. It isn't Timmy's fault because in sheep years he is only 3 and is the only lamb in the flock...

The Night Time Tablet

Advantages: Excellent for sleeping problems, Not addictive
Disadvantages: Not for major sleeping disorders

...I have read through most of the Phenergan opinions on this site and was very surprised to see that no one has written about the "Phenergan Night Time Tablets". Several months ago I had a very severe pain on the right hand side of my body around the top of my leg. The pain was most severe in the night and I used to have great difficulty in sleeping. As you may be aware from some of my previous opinions I travel to West Africa a lot and one of my trips I picked up some Diazepam Tablets 5mg from one of my friends pharmacies. These tablets are basically the generic form of Valium. Although I hardly ever used to use these tablets I am one person who always like to keep a stock of everything for any sort of emergency because you never know when you might need it. When I started experiencing these pains my first thought was to...

Review of Phenergan Night Time Tablets

The Controversial Opinion of the Sod at Night-Time

Advantages: Unique novel, educational
Disadvantages: Plodding, one trick pony

...on his protagonist. Originally billed purely as a children's novel it is easy to see why it has been released in the advanced (meaning more swear words) adult version. Children would not have the patience to read through it! I know I struggled. I wanted to love it, after all it is rare a truly original piece of fiction is produced, particularly one on such a contentious subject. However, it seemed like Haddon expected success purely by the inclusion of an unusual central character. The novel is strangely addictive though, but at 271 pages I expected it to fly by a lot quicker than it did. Perhaps I expected too much? Anyhow, I do recommend this novel if simply to expand your horizons if, like me, you rarely read outside of a genre. I am glad I read it but perhaps will ignore the hype next time round. ISBN 0-099-45025-9 Price £6...

Review of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time - Mark Haddon

Night time is a magical time

Advantages: Good packaging, it works
Disadvantages: None

...stuck in my mind where they say, ?night time is a magical time,? and I always remember this when putting on my handcream. I can?t say for certain but it was actually maybe a Nivea advert from a few years ago. Anyway, when I ran across this cream, especially formulated for night time use I decided to purchase it as I thought it was an extra good way of getting the benefit out of my night time ritual. Also I really liked the packaging!! The tube of lotion comes in the familiar blue Nivea colour but on the front are little silver stars and moons which make it look really pretty. This to me indicates that it is for night time use and a good way of making your product look different on the shelves. The cream states that it restores and replenishes hands over night. On the back it tells you that the cream is specially formulated to take...

Review of Nivea Hand Night Renewal Cream

Boots Time Delay Night Moisturiser

Advantages: Firm,smooth,great feeling skin
Disadvantages: i dont think there are any

...I bought this product purely for the fact that i'd used the Time Delay cleansing wipes and thought they were fantastically suited for my skin. I use this product after cleansing and toning my skin at night,and i wouldnt feel complete if I didnt use it at night. As mentioned in a couple of my other reviews,I have very red patches of skin on the bottom half of my face,which admittedly is probaly due to lifestyle, (Smoking,drinking etc). However in combination with the other time delay products I use,this night moisturiser really helps my skin. It helps by smoothing it instantly,taking away the red patches and instantly makes my skin feel firm. Many people have said that i am too young to be firming and toning my face with night moisturisers,but in my opinion,this product is so great that I will continue using it till it stops...

In the night garden ninky nonk train set

Advantages: strong, versatile, compact, nice bright colours, fun to play with
Disadvantages: none so far

...especially if they fancy a change of toy than this is ideal. My little one has had her one now for almost 5 months now and its still in good condition even though it has been dropped a couple of times it is still going strong and looks as good as new. It is made from quite strong material that is sure to last your child for many years to come. So on this final note I would highly recommend buying this toy for your child especially if they are a big fan of the ever so popular in the night garden TV show....

the dog in the night time

Advantages: you will never be able to put this book down,
Disadvantages: none

...I?m not a big fan of books and I?d much prefer to watch a DVD than read. I picked this book us as one of my friends had read it and had said that it was an interesting book to read. This is a 'murder mystery' book although that wouldn?t be the title you would put to this book. It is written by Mark Haddon and the boy in the story who is writing the book is a young Christopher Boone who has aspergers syndrome, which is rather like autism. Christopher lives with his father in Swindon not far from London, as his mother passed away due to a Heart problem. He gets up in the middle of the night to find his neighbour, Mrs Shears' dog, Wellington has been murdered. Much loving dogs and not understanding much about humans and their emotions this murder becomes a large part of Christopher?s life and he decides to find out who...

Review of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time - Mark Haddon

Things that get bumped in the night

Advantages: Insightful and unusual
Disadvantages: None for me

...I'd heard all the hype, read so many reviews, and listened to so much spiel in general about this book, that I thought I better get down to it and read the actual thing myself. So I did. For anyone visiting from Mars, or someone who, for reasons best known to themselves, has no knowledge of this book, here's a brief synopsis. Narrated by Christopher, an autistic 15-year-old, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a combination of an old-fashioned mystery, a bitter-sweet coming-of-age drama, and a revelational look inside a mind very different from the 'norm'. Christopher knows every capital of every country as well as every prime number up to 7,057. His favourite form of relaxation is doing maths problems in his head and when things get too much for him, he 'does' groaning. However, he is pretty much...

Review of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time - Mark Haddon

THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE BOOK IN THE BED-TIME

Advantages: Wonderful, great story, insight into Asperger's, brilliant characterisation
Disadvantages: Swearing

...see things through Christopher?s eyes and hopefully it will teach us not to make snap judgements if we see a child having a tantrum, when they look old enough to have grown out of them. Reality is often different to our perception of events. As you have probably gathered, I loved this book. The story was great but the characterisation was better. Christopher is such an engaging boy, that we can?t help but take him to our hearts. Of course, I read every word ? and would do so again. Excellent. THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME by Mark Haddon. ISBN 0-099-45025-9 Published by Random House. Cover price £6.99 but I got mine from Ebay for around £4....
