  1.  Nice packaging but product does not work.

    Posted: 

    These are extremely small, 4g each pot. They are about 3.5cm high and 3cm across the top. Small, expensive lip glosses are everywhere at the moment. A large high street chemist chain has its own version, more or less identical for 5.00 which you can get on a 3 for 2 offer at the moment. The ones here are lovely (presentation-wise, I haven't tried them myself). I did expect for such a premium price that they would be made in the UK but was very disappointed to find that they are made in Taiwan. However, others that I've looked at are either Taiwan or China.
    If you can get a good deal on these they make great stocking fillers and I am very pleased with mine, otherwise I think they're too expensive for what they are. I paid 3.99 and they did reduce further to 3.49 which I would say is a fair price to pay.
    UPDATE I have now tried these myself and changed my original rating from 3 stars to 1 star. I am very disappointed. These are purely a novelty item. They don't coat your lips and you have to use your imagination to get the stated smell. Once on your lips there is no flavour at all, they taste more like plastic than anyting else. Chapsticks that you can buy give a really strong flavour, these give nothing. You need to apply quite a lot to get any effect and that was difficult until I realised that they have a twist up bottom ! Doesn't seem to be very long lasting. I find that I'm re-applying quite often. They don't glide on easily and work better if you leave them in your pocket to warm up. I like my lip glosses to be sticky and glossy, these are neither, they are matt and dry.
    I thought that these would make nice stocking fillers but I would not recommend, they are not fit for purpose.

  2.  Stetsons are cool !

    Any fan of Matt Smith will love this, quoted from episode one, series six, The Impossible Astronaut. This is in fact a Half Moon Bay branded mug, properly packaged in a BBC Doctor Who box. A good solid mug. Very nice.

  3.  Not angry.... :D

    A good quality Angry Birds branded T-shirt. Fits quite snugly on the shoulders. If you are in any doubt over which size to get, go for the larger.
    Although it says machine washable I will hand wash because of the risk of the colour coming out.
    Looks great on. A very pleased Bird !
    Update : Oh yes ! The colour REALLY does come out !

  4.  Nice top for a Belieber

    Good quality T-Shirt. Print of good quality too. Snug fit which seems usual with these, so if not sure, go for a larger size than you would normally get. Came nicely sealed in a bag.

  5.  Too much bad language ?

    Bought this for my Mum who is a great fan of Beesley, Glenister, Simm and Warren and doesn't have access to Sky One and was extremely disappointed that she couldn't get to watch the series. She is enjoying it and finds the on screen chemistry between the actors interesting. However, after being used to the editing used by our TV companies, she says that there is a lot of swearing in it and was quite surprised - I think !

  6.  Love JLS

    Very nice T-Shirt. Good quality print and material. Fits really well. Went down a treat at the O2 yesterday, especially when the Tour T-Shirts were twenty pounds !!!

  7.  If you're not the youngest person buying music - read this !

    I know that a lady of a certain age shouldn't still be buying chart music but I have been getting interested in what my daughter's listening to.
    I would say that there are 16 GREAT tracks on this album including Maroon 5, One Direction, Bruno Mars, Olly Murs, The Wanted, Adele and David Guetta. There's 11 reasonable songs, another 7 would be included here if it wasn't for the Rapping on them. That leaves just 9 tracks that aren't particularly good. Which isn't too bad is it ?
    The 1st CD is definitely much better. The 2nd has a lot of Rap which, as you have guessed, I tend not to like. Overall I am enjoying this album and can't wait to see what Now 81 will have to offer.

  8.  Sooooo soft !

    Posted: 

    These little fellas are really cute, unbelievably soft and very cuddly with a subtle smell of lavender. They're not supplied with a box, unlike in the shops, but when you are paying so much less, you don't mind. Just let them out to breathe as soon as you receive them as they are a bit squashed in their plastic/Jiffy bags !
    Bought as gifts so can't actually comment on how warm they keep you, but these things are usually great and much safer than a hot water bottle, although personally I use both. Water bottle for feet and animal to cuddle !
