Review of Victoria & Albert Museum (London)

No V.A.T. and free delivery.

Advantages: High quality products
Disadvantages: Product range could be bigger

...Healthspan Limited is based in Guernsey which is why there is no V.A.T. to pay on their products. They supply Vitamin and Mineral supplements and other more complex natural substances. The Health supplements they produce are of a high standard and carry the approval of the U.K. Government?s Medical Control Agency or that of the European Government equivalent. They do have a brochure to flick through at your leisure as well as a website to browse. My last purchase was for St John's Wort (a must for many of us these days) - at a cost of £4.95 for 120 tablets, each containing 300mg of the concentrated extract. Among many other products they also sell Pycnogenol - a more recent addition to their brochure at £11.95 for 60 tablets and each tablet contains 30mg of the patented Pycnogenol extract. This can be a hard to get product if...

Oooh Make Yourself at Home

Advantages: Crunchy, tasty
Disadvantages: Not v filling for enormous stomachs like mine

...) and the right side is red (that would be the strawberry then – the grapefruit is yellow and I imagine any other flavours are similarly represented). You can’t miss this box as being McVities – for a start it will be with all the other McVities a:m stuff (and there’s enough of it) and then it has the now easily recognisable blue mathematical shape (is it a trapezium or something equally weird?) with super trendy McV to attract the young hip consumers – or that’s what McVities 40 year old marketing department will have decided anyway. There’s the usual tripe on the back about calories and complaints and the like but if you’re really that bothered about these things I’ll let you look at a box. Anyhooo – onto the important stuff. After ripping open the box in my haste to start...

Review of McV a:m Strawberry Cereal Bars

A-mazingly M-oorish

Advantages: taste
Disadvantages: see review

...?A TASTY WAY TO START YOUR DAY? is the claim on the packet of my A: M cereal bars from McVitie?s (or Mc V). Personally however I could never start my day on just a cereal bar, a bowl of cereal or bacon butty or even toast are far more acceptable. However these types of bar are great for snacks-though not for breakfast. I?m not a real lover of cereal bars, they are usually very sweet without much real taste, so I tend to leave alone and go for things like digestive biscuits or rich tea or similar. However I still buy cereal bars for my kids to take to school, so they are usually in the house. I?d seen Mcvitie?s A:M cereal bars on the shelves for a little while now, but had been reluctant to purchase due to the exaggerated price of about £1.40 for six. Sainsbury?s own brand cereal bar for example is only 99p for six while others are...

Review of McV a:m Strawberry Cereal Bars

Not a Healthy Alternative to Breakfast

Advantages: Tasty and quick
Disadvantages: High in Calories- sugars and fats

...McVities a:m bars arrived in the shops a couple of months ago now and at the time you could get some good deals on multibuys. As I'm always one for a bargain and like to try out new things I stocked up on a whole range of them and I'm just getting down to the end of my stash so I thought I'd write a few reviews. The a:m cereal bars come in packs of 6 x 35 g bars, with about a year on the sell by date so if you see any good deals and you've got the storage space you don't need to worry about them going out of date. They're currently £1.38 in Tescos. The box is clearly designed to entice you into buying - " A Tasty Way to Start the Day " marches across the box drawing your eye to a picture of juicy strawberries, just big enough to give the impression that this bar is bursting with fresh fruit. This image is carried through onto...

Review of McV a:m Strawberry Cereal Bars

O2 sim card only

Advantages: Plenty of texts and minutes for a really good price £20
Disadvantages: None

...Recently changed a sim only card with vodafone which gave me 500 mins (specified) and 1000 texts, advertised as £20 a month but v.a.t. was added to this amount plus I kept getting extra amounts charged for 'going over' texts .I complained to vodafone several times and eventually was refunded but I decided to try o2 who were offering sim only with 400 mins (anytime any network) plus 1000 texts included in this is picture messages where you have 3 text messages deducted in leu of the one photo message which I thought was acceptable as vodafone charged extra for picture messages. I have been using the sim card for a few months now and it is excellent, I NEVER go over my 1000 texts (vodafone please note) and the minutes can be used any time on any network which is brilliant, v.a.t. is not an added extra so you do actually pay £20 which is...

Save money with B&Q

Advantages: Cheaper prices
Disadvantages: None

...Save money at B&Q on building materials, Its cheaper than your local builder's merchant. I purchased 300 bricks,7 bags of ballast, 7 bags of building sand and 3 bags blue circle cement which cost only £118 for a job i am doing on friday. The customer lives local to the store so I was charged £10 for delivery which was included. My local builders merchant are priced before they include V.A.T. which makes their prices reasonable(I f you don't add the V.A.T. on).B&Q staff were very helpfull to find my needs. I will be using B&Q In future for building materials the delivery cost to my house will be only £20...

Review of B & Q (Shop)

Fallout 3 - A fine original game

Advantages: Originality and Size of Game-World
Disadvantages: 3rd Person View, Games Limits

...A game that for me, seems to feature four main genres rolled into one, 1) an obvious RPG, 2) A rather solid FPS, 3) An Adventure Game and 4) A strategy game. Despite random crashes sometimes spoiling my gameplay experience i think the whole experience can forgive that. It's a game that I could really get into it was more of a post-nucleatic wa simulator than a game. The V.A.T.S system is another very original feature than hugely improves gameplay. Equally the dialogue that can be exchanged with other NPC's if brilliant! What's better is how it actually contributes to the game. The Good/Bad Karma system is affected by the options you elect to use to speak with someone. Equally should you choose an agressive speech option then you can risk a battle with others! The only problem is how the game cruelly limits you to 20 Levels...

Cape Town, the place to be

Advantages: Great Scenery, Value for money, Pristine beaches
Disadvantages: not much

...Cape town is an aersome place. i love it so much and would highly recommend anyone visit it. From pristine wite beaches, the awesome mountan and the V&A waterfront, this is the place to be! It is also very cheap whe nyou are coming over from the united states or europe bercause of the exchange rate. a beer costs around $1 - $1.50. Cape town is relatively safe compared to most south africa ncities, especially johannesburg, mostly due to the huge tourist industry. cape town is pretty small and easy to travel around. there is no trains or decent bus service, but you can hire a car for really cheap, and the are tour buses in the city. i highly recommend going there www.explorecapetown.co.za...
