Fabulous Fashionista’s – Fabulous Television
There is a definite plus point to the end of summer. The endless amounts of dross that have appeared on your television during those light nights;- the repeats, cheap reality shows (yes Big Brother, I mean you), and the B movies all finally disappear, and we start to get some good quality, well made, and frankly un-missable programmes. This makes Autumn a great time to compare broadband packages to find those with good TV packages like Virgin Media and BT with essentials TV. So far this month I’ve enjoyed the brilliant David Threlfall in ‘What Remains’, uncovering the mysterious death of a lonely girl. I’m currently enthralled by ‘The Guilty’,…

Are Legends Born or Made?
Are legends born, or made? An interesting question I think, and beer giant Heineken® thought so too. They decided to try to discover the answer as part of its latest global campaign ‘Voyage’, by undertaking a daring experiment. The test is ‘what are men really made of when taken from the norm and dropped into the great unknown?’ Real life, all-round fabulous people will be chosen to go on a legendary adventure, the opportunity of a lifetime. A test resourcefulness, strength and will power. But this adventure is no holiday. You could be stranded alone in the freezing wilderness of Alaska, on a glacier, with nothing but a giant life-ring,…

Autumn television – All about Downton again.
I noticed it the other night when I was drawing the curtains before 9pm. It may still be August but the nights are already beginning to close in. And certain television events that remind us that Autumn is literally peering around the corner are almost upon us. Which is why now is a perfect time to check out the new BT broadband packages that are available, offering optimum opportunities for on-demand and catch-up TV, along with the best in high definition. Because, believe me, you are going to want the very best in viewing experiences for the Autumn programme. So, what have I got in my viewing schedule for the…

Westfield Merry Hill delivers for Kids this Summer
Summer can be a very expensive time for those with young children. Parents can either find themselves in the position of paying for childcare for six weeks, or face the uneviable task of trying to keep children occupied day-in, day-out. And whilst the sunny days can be passed relatively cheaply in local parks, the damp, drizzly and rainy days can prove costly. Westfield Merry Hill Centre consulted members of their parent group, Mummy Mornings, and found that some parents spend as much as a staggering £1000 over the period of the six weeks holiday. With this in mind, the centre created a programme of free or cheap events, and I…
