Turning back the clock

How long used: 1 week

I have tried so many anti-aging products in the past, but THIS one really works!

First off - the science bit... It is a combination of Argeriline Hyaluronic Acid and Seaweed extract. Argeriline is a Peptide that significantly relaxes expression lines while Hyaluronic acid (which is naturally occuring in our body) provides maximum hydration by attracting 1,000 times its weight in moisture.

I have no idea what all that means - but what I DO know is that my skin is smoother, and the wrinkles are less, and I love it!

Get yours here!

And weight loss is sure to be on many people's minds! So here's a weight loss and general health system that we have found to work very well - it's based on a system that has been around for many years, but, in this book, the author has made it MUCH easier to follow!

Like most cleanses, this system is focused on getting rid of all the toxins that build up in your body over time. No matter HOW careful you have been over the years (and most of us slip from time to time!) - the food we eat, what we drink and even the air we breathe contains toxins and materials that our bodies simply cannot absorb or break down. Eventually, those build up and start to leach into your bloodstream, slowing your metabolism and draining your energy, not to mention clogging any weight loss efforts.

In particular at this time of year, we tend to eat rich food (and often too much of it!) and perhaps more alcohol than normal. Both of these are major culprits when it comes to build-up of toxins!

With the Master Cleanse - these deposits are quickly and dramatically removed from your system - and the resulting energy and vitality is absolutely incredible! If you typically find diets hard, or even find that losing weight just doesn't seem to happen for you, give this a go - we are SURE you will love the results!

EDIMAX PS-1206MF 1 PORT WIRED MFP USB PRINT SERVER

2008-09-08T22:48:00.000+01:00

Time in use: 3 days
Overall: VERY useful!

Despite the REALLY long title - this is a very simple and very elegant little box! How many households out there now have more than one computer? Sometimes WAY more than one computer!! But do you really want to have a printer for every computer, complete with paper jams, running out of ink, etc, etc....?

So here's the solution - just share your printer across the network, and the great thing is that this little box makes that really simple. No messing around with Windows printer sharing, no need to keep one computer always switched on - just hook this box up to your main router and to your USB printer and you're done!

We've set this up with a Dell Photoprinter and it works very well - as fast as if it was connected directly, but no wires to my laptop! You can also share scanning and faxing capabilities from a multi-function printer, but do check the compatability chart on that one.

And if this is STILL too many wires for you... Check out the wireless version!

MORPHY RICHARDS CREATE TONG STYLER

2008-09-06T18:24:00.000+01:00

Time used: Just arrived
Price paid: £39.99
Overall verdict: Excellent!

The one thing I know is that I will ALWAYS be in a rush to finish my hair, so the fast heating time of these curling tongs appealed to me - and they certainly deliver. I didn't time them, but within a few minutes they were ready to use.

The ceramic heating elements give lasting curls - in this case, even lasting overnight and into the following day. Certainly recommend these to anyone!

TomTom GPS 920T - brilliant gadget!

2008-09-05T14:36:00.000+01:00

Time used: 3 months

Original price: £430

Overall verdict: 5 stars, no doubt!

I have been a big fan of GPS for years - the concept of always knowing where you are is very reassuring, whether you are stuck in traffic on the M6 or exploring the depths of Europe for the first time. Add to that the capabilities of the new GPS systems to tell you how to get to where you want to be as well and I can't imagine taking on any kind of serious journey without this little box on the dashboard!

This is the top of the range GPS for TomTom, which means it comes with all of the extras you could wish for - including a traffic report receiver.

Just plug this extra cable into the unit and give it a few minutes to collect the radio traffic reports - then your route will be recalculated to make sure you are on the best possible roads. It also updates your arrival time, so you can call ahead (using the built in bluetooth hands-free facility, of course) to let everyone know if you will be late!

Route planning is fast, very fast - much faster than any of the top-of-the range built in GPS systems I have used. Even when you miss your turn, you barely get past the end of the road before a new route is being displayed and instructions (very calmly) given to get you back on track.

There are a lot of other features in this unit (such as voice recognition for address entry, MP3 player, ability to play through your car stereo system, remote control, etc) - take a look here for the full spec, but now that these units are available for almost 1/2 the price they were just 3 months ago - if you're travelling without one, you're making your journey far too difficult!
