LottoLand


Hey guys and girls I am back just a quick review on a site i reviewed which they let me have a play on a few of their games on the site with £25 but i wasn't careful and lost it all as I was just playing for fun rather than trying to win anything, and playing without paying much attention, I get distracted quite easily but anyway here is a bit about the site.

Before we start I am not a big lover of gambling but do play the odd euro-millions now and then or buy the odd scratch card, so walk away when I lose so I don't lose too much.

About Lottoland


Lottoland is a online gambling site abit like any other one, with scratch cards, and online games such as black jack, but with lottoland you can also do the euro-millions on there which I found was a great thing about the site especially as i recently tried signing up to national lottery website and it wouldn't let me without proving my identity etc which seemed a lot of hassle for wanting to do a line on the euro-millions, anyway with lottoland as i said it is easy to sign up and get playing, which can be a good thing and bad thing, a good thing meaning it quick and easy no hassle, but a bad thing if you're addicted to gambling.


What I Liked about Lottoland
I loved how quick and easy it is to set up and get playing, meaning no messing around.
I really love how you can do the euro-millions on the site as well means I don't have to go to shop last minute waiting n a queue and missing the deadline to play.
I also loved how quick the site was no lagging and slow games like with bigger sites.

What I didn't like about Lottoland.
This is a hard one I couldn't find much I didn't like other then as with all gambling sites it gets addictive but that comes with all sites like this anyway, so would say if you have a gambling habit or love gaming too much maybe either stay clear or set yourself limits so you don't go over and lose to much money, if you do lose walk away whilst you still can.

Overall Verdict.


I really like the site It is easy to join, and the site is fast and quick.
The site has lots to offer such as games, scratch cards, and you can even do your euro-millions on there which is an added bonus so to speak. My only concern is how addictive online gambling is and can be meaning I do worry if more and more people will become addicted through great sites that run quick and make it easy to spend money, saying this you can set limits on there which is a great way if you don't wanna spend too much.

I really love the site layout easy on the eye making it easy to see what you are doing.
I love how you can invite friends to join and if your friend wins you win the same payout which is cool and a great idea especially if you both don't want to gamble that much but still can win more by your friends winning. But again with this it could lead you to making friends want to join and they could become addicted, so my only advice would be if you're worried about a friend gambling addiction to seek help, remember you can win all the time with these sites and that some people have lost everything through gambling so if you gamble you are doing so at your own risk play reasonably, set limits and leave if you lose money do not try win back what you have or may lose as this can make it worse.

Eco Egg Fresher For Longer Discs




Hey Guys and Girls I am back sorry for delay been having my kitchen refitted so been stressed may has been stressful for me i needed up starting smoking again, sad times, but will be giving up again when I can, also I am on iron tablets and vitamin d tablets.
Anyway today I am reviewing a product sent to me by eco egg.


Fresher For Longer Discs

Ecoegg have sent me fresher for longer discs which go inside the fridge to keep your food fresher for longer, also they can go in the fruit bowl to keep your fruit fresher for longer. So far I have noticed a difference regards to my fruit and vegetables in fridge they do seem to be lasting a lot longer than usual which is a bonus for me, Because I hate waste and I hate the horrid smells food produce when they are going out of date.

About The Product

(Info taken from eco egg website)
Waste less, eat more healthily and save money
Each disc lasts for 3 months
Great results: independently proven
No harsh chemicals


Our Fresher For Longer Discs are proven to prolong the life of your fruit and vegetables.
The industry secret is now available at home The same technology that cruise ships use to keep their produce fresh whilst at sea for weeks on end is now available in your own home.  Ever wondered how supermarkets keep fruit and veg fresh for so long? It’s this technology they use in their vast fruit warehouses.


Breaking the vicious circle It’s ethylene gas that’s the enemy. As fruit and veg start to go off they give off ethylene gas.  The problem is that ethylene gas also causes fruit and veg to go off – so you get a vicious circle. That’s why, when fruit and veg start to go off, they go off very quickly! The discs break the cycle by absorbing the ethylene gas, slowing down the decay process and keeping your food fresher for longer.

Lasts 3 months They are so easy to use – just pop one in the fridge, fruit bowl, lunch box or cool box – then forget about it.  It’ll then keep working hard – for the next 3 months – absorbing the ethylene gas and keeping your fruit and vegetables fresher for longer. They’ll extend the life of your fruit and vegetables so you’ll get a chance to eat them before they go bad. If you are trying to eat more healthily, or just want to save money, these are perfect for you. This is a great value kit which contains 4 discs.  And with each lasting for 3 months, that’s a year’s supply!

DID YOU KNOW?

Eco egg recently won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in Innovation 2016.
The Queen’s Awards are made annually by Her Majesty The Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister, who is assisted by an Advisory Committee that includes representatives of Government, industry and commerce. Eco egg are thrilled to have been recognised by Her Majesty The Queen as one of the most innovative businesses in the United Kingdom.

Overall Verdict

I am super impressed with these one of the best inventions ever. Not only my food last longer in the fridge, the product is nice and nifty and not big and bulky so doesn't make the fridge look cluttered or take up room. I love the fact it clips to door or in the fruit bowl to keep the food fresher for longer. Which means no more food waste and nasty smelly out of date food. The only downside if i wanted to be critical would be the price as it seems a lot for a small product, but when you think of out much money you will save by not having to throw out food the price seems a little more reasonable.

Before You Go !!

Eco egg have an amazing deal on these fresher for longer disc over on qvc.
The special offer is Live on 6th of june from 00.01am-23.59pm.
The kit includes 12 Fresher for Longer Discs and a Fresher for Longer Disc Holder

Snoopy And Charlie Brown The Peanuts Movie


Hiya guys and girls Today I am reviewing a dvd which was sent to me a few days ago from mumsnet as I am one of their mummy bloggers myself and my family are very excited to review it for you with half term coming up we would like to see if it gets the half term factor.

The dvd is snoopy and it is due to be released on dvd and blu ray 30th may.

First Impressions Before watching

Me and my family are a big lover of movies, I am more of a chick flick girl but do enjoy the odd children's and family films, my little girl and hubby are a big lover of ice age and other movies. So we was all excited to watch this and find out what the movie was like and if it was one we all could watch and enjoy without me falling asleep or getting distracted by facebook, which i normally do when a film is boring or not to my taste, stay tuned to find out what we think of Snoopy and Charlie Brown The Movie and if we recommend it as a half term movie.


About Snoopy And Charlie Brown The Movie.

In Snoopy and charlie brown: the peanuts movie, good ol’ charlie brown, Snoopy, lucy and linus and the rest of the much loved peanuts gang appear as you have never seen them before in a brand new feature film from the wonderful imagination of charles m. schulz and the creators of ice age. Join everyone's favourite eternal optimist, charlie brown, as he embarks on a heroic quest, while his beagle pal snoopy takes to the skies to pursue his arch nemesis, the red baron. It is a hilarious and heart-warming adventure not to be missed.


What Me and My Family Think Of The Movie.

Chloe loved it right from the start where the children had a snow day which made the start of the film fun and happy, Charlie brown is so sweet and adorable we love him.
We loved the part where charlie goes all shy and red when the red haired girl walks into the classroom. We also loved the part where charlie helps out his sister which shows his really caring loving personality which reminded me of myself.

halfway through chloe got tired so didn't end up watching rest of the film but says from what she saw she really enjoyed it, hubby on the other end lost interest really quick although he was a big lover of charlie brown and snoopy as a child.

I really enjoyed watching it and loved the part where charlie goes all red when the lovely red haired girl walks into the classroom, it is a lovable moment in the film which kinda made my heart melt, I also loved how shy charlie brown is and how innocent he is which makes you love him and want him to pick up the courage to talk to the girl with the red hair.
When watching it lucy reminded me of chloe because she is really confident but really bossy at the same time, even though chloe says she's not bossy, kids aye.
Anyway as you can tell I kind of enjoyed it more then my hubby and daughter.

Overall Verdict

Wow what Can I say I am impressed considering I am fussy when it comes to family and children's movies I was suitably Impressed, Not only did I not fall asleep I watched it without logging onto facebook and replying to all my emails. I didn't even wanna leave my seat to go toilet I was so engrossed and got right into it from the word go chloe also really enjoyed  some of it then got bit distracted and wouldn't sit still as she was tired so she went to bed, hubby also lost interest halfway through so went to bed.

I really enjoyed watching it and loved when charlie brown went all red when the red haired girl walks into the classroom, I really love how innocent charlie brown is he is a very lovable character who reminds me of me, very loving and kind and honest.

I felt the film was at a great pace and easy to follow with lots of lovely characters with all different personalities, from the bossy to the innocent each character has got their own little personality. I also loved some of the soundtracks in the movie which make the movie more fun to watch especially when charlie brown shows of his lovable dance moves.

I do feel the film is aimed more to children, or families who enjoy this kind of film.
Also adults who may have been big snoopy and charlie brown fans when they was younger like my hubby saying that he didn't 100% enjoy it himself but everyone is different.

I would give the movie 8/10 purely for the fact I watched it all the way through and loved the storyline it was really engrossing and I really wanted to see if charlie would pick up the courage to talk to the red haired girl who he as been trying to impress throughout the film.

Questions And Answers.

My Favorite Character Is?
Charlie brown because he is so sweet and innocent.

Which Character Is Like Me?
Tough question I would say I am a bit like charlie brown I have two left feet.

My Favourite Part Of The Movie?
The part where charlie goes all red when the red haired girl walks into classroom.

Would I Recommend This Movie?
Yes and no, id recommend this to families and young children but would say it is aimed more at the children although everyone is different so some adults may like it more then the kids.

Did My hubby And Daughter LIke The Movie ?
Chloe enjoyed it although she got tired and lost interest and so did hubby.

When Is  Snoopy and Charlie Brown The Movie  Available To Buy?
Snoopy and Charlie Brown The Movie Is Out On Dvd And Blu-Ray From 30th May.

The Black Farmer Sausages

Hey guys and girls, I am back again hope you're all well. As some of you may or may not know it is celiac awareness month. I myself was recently sent for blood tests because they found out I had anemia from another blood test I had done previously because of knee pain I have had for 7 years. Anyway the recent bloods testing for celiac have come back negative although the nurse is sending me for further tests to see what Is wrong with me, Anyway fitting in with the theme of celiac awareness month I am reviewing some sausages from the black farmer which are gluten free.

Find out about the black farmer by clicking the link above.

My thoughts on the sausages.
I wasn't to sure what they would taste like at first with been gluten free sausages i was thinking they may taste bland, because most people say gluten free stuff can taste bland.
But i thought id give them a try anyway as it is good to try new things.

The price of the sausages are not too bad at 3.50 a pack not too bad but more than I am currently paying for sausages as I normally buy supermarkets own for a pound a pack due to having to budget to make sure my money covers all my bills etc.

The taste of the sausages were pretty nice full of flavour and tasted better than any sausage I have tried so far, I loved the taste as did my hubby and my daughter. My daughter asked if we can eat these more often as they are really yummy.
Overall Verdict
Overall I am impressed with the sausages that tasted great not to sure on the price though with the sausages being £3.50 a pack due to I normally buy food in bulk.
Saying that for the great taste, and the amount you get in a pack as well as being gluten free the price is reasonable to a certain extent, as other places would probably charge a lot more for gluten free sausages.

Me and my family really loved how the sausages were very flavoursome and tasty.
For a child who is fussy with taste and a hubby who can be picky with certain foods as well as me miss fussy food critic We really loved every bite of the sausages.

The only thing I found with them even though they was lovely tasty and juicy  felt a bit chewy in some parts but hubby said it was not chewy so probably me nitpicking to be fair I am a fussy person when it comes to food.

Bandzee The only hairband your ever Need


copyright bandzee


Hey guys n girls sorry the delay this should of been posted a week ago but i have not been well I have had a bad cold more like flu I felt so rough and couldn't bring myself to writing so apologies to everyone, hope you are all well, Today I am reviewing bandzee sent to me by bandzee. Before we start, I have been sent this product as a gift in exchange for a honest review. As always views and thoughts on the product are my own and I will always state any good and bad I find in a product where I can, as I believe there is good and bad in everything.

What Is Bandzee?


So bandzee sent me a few packs of their super cool design bandzees to anyone who doesn't know what bandzee are, they are a super cool hair tie that not only looks pretty on your wrist. We all know how frustrating it is when you can only find one hair band you do to tie your hair up tighter and tighter then all of a sudden snap, well with bandzee kiss goodbye to getting your heart broken by your hairbands, who are disloyal to your hair leaving kinks every time you tie it up, bandzee is your new best friend and very loyal to you and your hair. It won't break up on you, it won't damage your hair or your feelings.

First Impression?


Upon arrival I opened the envelope and was really surprised to see the lovely designs inside,
Even my little girl was like I want them, I want to wear one on my wrist, When I opened the pack and removed a bandzee I stumbled across some wording on the cardboard packaging, and then looked to see if my other two packs had it which they did but different words, which I really loved because they are quite inspiring words and thought that was one of the great things with packaging, for the amount of young girls or guys who will be using banzee nice to see such inspirational quotes on there too inspire them. So when I first tried using a bandzee on my little girl I was abit skeptical as she sometimes moans when I try tie her hair as normal hair bands can be tight and uncomfy, but with bandzee she didn't seem to make as much of a fuss when i was tying her hair In fact I could tie her hair quite well, and it wasn't to tight like some new hairbands are.

Did You Know?

Bandzee also do subscriptions, which means you can get a pack of bandzee sent to your door each month, for 4.95 each month which means you save £1 per pack as bandzee retail at 5.95 this might be idea for someone you know wanting a subscription that’s different.
Might be good for a gift for a friend who always loses their hairbands?

Overall Verdict!

Overall I am impressed with bandzee they tie your hair and also look good on the wrist, they are not too tight to wear in your hair or on wrist, they easy to use and made doing my daughters hair much easier without all the moaning it hurts and it is too tight, bandzee gets the thumbs up from my little girl and me and my partner, we really love the designs and how each pack as a lovely inspirational quote on which is a good thing for anyone reading, positive messages and quotes have great impact on young people, the only thing I am not sure on is the price purely because I am used to buying big bulk hair bands and getting loads but putting the quantity aside and judging price on how well bandzee worked I think the price isn't too bad. even though I am impressed with bandzee I will continue to use normal hair bands as well until every last hairband I own snaps and breaks, then may think about investing in bandzees because they do not break easily like hair bands do.

Not sure what else to say other than why not buy a pack and see if you like bandzee and if they meet all your hair needs, one thing for sure I am hoping bandzee will bring out different sizes like bigger ones for people who may have loads of hair or loads of dreadlocks and wants to tie them all up together.
