Sleeping Beauty at The Hawth Review
DISCLOSURE – TICKETS TO SEE THE SHOW WERE GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER AND GUEST FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Nothing says Christmas more than a pantomime and thousands of families fill theatres at this time of year, looking for a fun night out.
Beauty & The Beast at The Capitol Horsham Review
DISCLOSURE – TICKETS TO SEE THE SHOW WERE GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER AND GUEST FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW Reviewed by Amanda Hayes We love a show at The Capitol in Horsham, the seats are soft and comfortable, more like a cinema than a theatre and it’s a fairly small auditorium compared to some others, so it has an intimate feeling with a fabulous view from every seat.
Pott’d Paintables Paint a Mug Review
DISCLOSURE – THIS ITEM WAS GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN. Reviewed by Amanda Hayes If you are looking for a fantastic gift for an adult or older child that likes pottery or painting, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of choice for a medium sized budget. I could find basic painting pottery sets or paint by numbers, but I was looking for something a little more premium without breaking the bank.
Forever Living Aloe Cooling Lotion Review
DISCLOSURE – THIS ITEM WAS GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN. Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Are you looking for a gift for a friend or colleague that likes to keep fit? Someone that works out at the gym or runs for a hobby? The chances are they like to keep healthy in other areas too using natural products on their skin so an Aloe Vera based product from Forever Living would make the perfect present.
Forever Living Aloe Moisturising Lotion Review
DISCLOSURE – THIS ITEM WAS GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN. Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Aloe Vera is a green spiky leafed plant I associate with lazy days in far away climes, but it also has undisputed health benefits. Inside those prickly yet squidgy leaves is the aloe vera gel that’s used as a base for so many products these days, from skincare to drinks, but why is it so good for you?
Annie, The Hawth Theatre, Review
DISCLOSURE – TICKETS TO SEE THE SHOW WERE GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER AND GUEST FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Wow! What a fabulous start to the festive season we had last night watching the first night of a week long run of Annie at The Hawth Theatre, Crawley. It’s a fabulous and straightforward theatre to watch any show in, with its easy access to the M23, plenty of free parking, plus the necessary comfy seats, well stocked bar & restaurant.

100 Years of Disney and Amazon Stocking Filler Review
DISCLOSURE – THIS ITEM WAS GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN Reviewed by Amanda Hayes. If you are looking for Christmas gifts, both small and large then Amazon is the first port of call for many, it pretty much has everything you need from toys to clothes but where & how do you start browsing, there is just so much choice.
QWICK Hose Starter Set Review
DISCLOSURE – THIS ITEM WAS GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN. Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Original Christmas gifts for those who love gardening or those who like to keep their car sparkling at home can be hard to come by with the go to gifts of gardening gloves or a chamois leather getting repetitive, so what other choices are there? The perfect gift for either, young or old, is the QWICK Hose Starter Set.
Granger’s Clothes Waterproofing Products Review
DISCLOSURE – THIS ITEM WAS GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN. Reviewed by Amanda Hayes With the British winter comes the inevitable rain and, especially if you are a fan of the great outdoors like us, the need for plenty of clean and dry wet weather gear. It also creates an great opportunity for Christmas stocking filler ideas for those who also have the same problem.
Ecozone Laundry Products Review
DISCLOSURE – THESE ITEMS WERE GIFTED TO THE REVIEWER FOR THE PURPOSES OF WRITING THE REVIEW. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE THE REVIEWER’S OWN. Reviewed by Amanda Hayes One word, Wow! That’s all I need to say about the ecozone laundry stain remover, it certainly is tough on stains. My son competes in show jumping and annoyingly for a boy that can’t keep clean for five minutes, must wear white jodhpurs to competitions, which is seriously not a good combination.
Plus Plus Puzzle By Number & More Review
Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Autumn term is under way, and I’m suddenly inundated by birthday party requests, fabulous for my son but a headache for me, the one who must go out buying gifts! I was very pleased indeed then, to find out that I had the opportunity to review some toys from the Plus Plus puzzle range as I had seen their brightly coloured packaging whilst out browsing for ideas.

Nairn’s Cereal Bar Review
Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Between commuting to London on the train and packed lunches, we get through a lot of cereal bars in our house. As per usual we tend to stick to the same old brand, so I was really keen to try out the range from renowned Scottish brand Nairn’s, with flavours including fruit and chocolate, I thought they should suit everyone in the house.

Belledorm Cocoonzz Silk Hair Accessories Review
Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Belledorm “The Home of Exceptional Linens” Is a fabulous place to shop if you are looking for beautiful and stylish home linens such as bedding, but did you know that they also had a hair accessory range? Made out of Grade A silk, their Cocoonzz range, which includes turban’s, headbands, scrunchies and eye masks, is a must for a gorgeous gift or sumptuous treat.

The Ministry of Science Live At The Hawth Theatre, Crawley Review
Reviewed by Amanda Hayes The Hawth Theatre in Crawley, West Sussex is a great place to watch any show, so we were very pleased to get tickets to The Ministry of Science Live. Situated just ten minutes from Gatwick Airport, with very easy access to the M23 motorway and plenty of free parking the Hawth made our evening out at the theatre extremely simple.
Eleat Breakfast Cereal Review
Reviewed by Amanda Hayes If December is the month of excess, then January is the month to take care of your body. Diet and fitness play a big part of a lot of the population’s New Year resolutions, and of course, that means eating healthily too. It is a well versed fact that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and with a filling meal first thing you are less likely to turn to those dreaded sugary snacks for a mid morning boost.

Rubies In The Rubble Condiments Review
Reviewed by Amanda Hayes Food waste is a big bugbear of mine, so I was really pleased to be able to test out some of the large range of condiments from Rubies In The Rubble (rubiesintherubble.com). Jenny, Rubies founder, was also passionate about food waste and started the Company 10 years ago to use up all that wasted fruit and veg that normally ends up in the bin.

Reviewed by Amanda Hayes I love giving a personalised gifts and so was very pleased to be chosen to review a Cewe personalised photo gift box for Easter. The box comes with two photos of your choice, inside and outside and a choice of either Ferrero chocolates, Kinder chocolates or a compartment to fill your own. My mum loves Ferrero chocolates so I chose this option to give as a gift to Nana from my nine year old son.
