So was the Aerobed suitable for an elderly disabled relative?
Back in December Aerobed sent us one of their Platinum Raised Air beds to review. I tried to tell them I wasn’t the best person – my husband hates airbeds and would never sleep on it, and the only guests we had coming were my elderly in-laws for Christmas. How could an Aerobed be suitable for an elderly disabled relative ? My Father in law has a crumbling spine, plus a hip that is in such poor condition that it is due to...
Perfect Last Minute Teen Gift – The Art of Mad Max: Fury Road | #ChristmasGiftGuide
We already talked this week about giving books as teen gifts; they need to be something special if you want them to be read and cherished rather than plopped on a shelf and ignored. For gamers, the Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Art Book is a surefire hit. But if you happen to own a film buff, then the The Art of Mad Max: Fury Road is probably one of the best Coffee Table Art Film Books I’ve ever seen, and is guaranteed to...
PERFECT non-tech gift for your teen gamer – Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Art Book Review #ChristmasGiftGuide

The essential mini chopper for your kitchen – Aura Chop & Blend | Pre-Christmas Shopping

But, a gift is a gift, so I thanked them very nicely and plopped it in the cupboard. A few weeks later I remembered it was there, dug it out and gave it a go while I was making dinner. Oh. My. Seriously. I had been missing out on life! A mini chopper quickly became my go-to kitchen...
The Ultimate Headphones for your Digital Teen |#ChristmasGiftGuide
Following from the review of the Blue Yeti microphone for gaming teens, it seemed obvious we needed some pure headphones to go with it – we’ve covered headsets (which combine the two) previously – but if you have a separate microphone on your desk, then all you need on your head are headphones. But teens are always the most demanding of creatures, aren’t they? You don’t want any old earbuds – no no...
The Very Best Headset for Teen Gamers – under £65 for Hyper X Cloud II #ChristmasGiftGuide
The importance of a gaming headset should never be underestimated by any parent of a teen gamer. Really, no – their iPod headphones will not ‘do’. And when you’re the one spending out, you want to be sure you’re getting one of the good ones, obviously – and this is not necessarily down to budget. Now I’m no gamer myself – for me, a night on the sofa playing Couch Co-op Halo with the...
