e-cigarettes – The way forward?

Posted on 27th August 2013 by swanny

Over 4 years ago, I used to smoke. Mainly when I was out socialising and having a drink, but I would still have a couple during the day when at work as well. Luckily for me, quitting wasn’t as difficult for me as it is for some people. Back then, I wasn’t aware of any…

Release your inner creativeness with Cricut!

Posted on 24th April 2013 by swanny

Since becoming a Mum, I’ve really become interested in arts and crafts. I took up Crochet and I do Hand Stamped Jewellery but I really wish I’d tapped into this creative side earlier.

Posted on 4th February 2013 by swanny

It’s the most recognisable of the satellite navigation brands on the market, but can Tom Tom make the move from in-car sat nav to smartphone app? We find out! I do a lot of long distance driving and rely heavily on sat navs. I have a terrible sense of direction! Up until recently I was…
