Accurist Gents Watch 50% off – Christmas Gift Guide
Men are often some of the trickiest family members to buy for, aren’t they? I find it’s either dead easy.. or nigh on impossible to really find the perfect thing. BUT over the years I have come to realise that somet hings can make it easier. Watches are one of those things. Don’t presume that because he has a nice watch, he might not like another. It’s like you deciding that you have a fabulous pair of shoes...
Razer introduces the Naga Epic Chroma Mouse for wireless MMO gaming – Christmas Gift Guide
I know – it took me a while to get it too. Just as a keyboard for me is for tapping to make letters appear in your screen, a mouse is for swooshing around the desk to get to where you want to go. But no. I have been taught the error of my ways by my gamer teens. A mouse and keyboard are so very much more. I didn’t really buy into it… until I sat and watched them play. THEN I got it. Honestly – the way their...
All I want for Christmas… is these Kickers | Christmas Gift Guide
It’s no secret that we LOVE Kickers. Ever since my own teens I have wanted a pair of Kickers of my own. My children have all worn them… which has done nothing to assuage my own yearning, obviously, and has simply proved to me how great they are (they’re fabulous kids shoes – well constructed, roomy, sturdy and robust). So I’ve decided that now, in my 40th year, the time has come for a change. It is time...

The most beautiful wood salt & pepper shakers | Christmas Gift Guide
*sighs happily* Aren’t they just bee-yoo-tiful? two of my favourite textures – natural wood and smooth pebbles – combined into useful, pretty objects. They just make me smile – and want to touch one. The smooth round shape of the Salt and Pepper Shakers makes them not only very beautiful, but also very comfortable to hold. They can be arranged in any way possible turned upside down and they will always look...
Blurb Best Photo Books Review | Perfect Grandparent Christmas Gift (2021)
Every year I create my in-laws an album of everything we’ve done during the year – they live nearly 200 miles away, and don’t see the children anywhere near as often as we’d like. So to replace all those Grandparenty-photos they don’t get to take by being out and about with us, the children choose all their favourites from the year to create a book for Gangy & Bumpa. One year we did a DVD for them… but really they simply...
