    Actifry

    Hmm, I know what you mean. I'm disappointed in mine. :down: I got it yesterday, and used some oven chips, but they were dry. Today I've just made some roasted veg, and cooked them for over 30 minutes, but the parsnips and carrots weren't cooked properly - although the other veg...

    Testing on Animals

    M&S dishwasher tablets are not tested on animals, and quite a bit of own brand stuff from Superdrug is vegan now. It states it on the back of the bottles. Sainsburys toilet cleaner is also vegan. I'm always on the look out for anything that is vegan and available on the high street.

    When Is QVC Craft Day Not A Craft Day ?

    I used to buy Bucilla, the Christmas felt kits, and they nearly always sold out - but suddenly they stopped selling them. It certainly wasn't a lack of interest, in a lot of cases if you didn't "jump to the phones" when an item was aired you lost out on it. I seldom watch craft day any more...

    HP pavilion DV7 problem

    Thank you Simon, it has also a couple of times rebooted itself even when it's idle. I think I will ring QVC to see if they can send me a replacement when they have new stock in. It's obviously not quite right which is a nuisance as I've spent a lot of time setting it up, and loading my...

    HP pavilion DV7 problem

    Did anyone else get his machine from QVC? I love it, but when I work it hard i.e. uploading 25Gb's on files to my documents, or backing up a lot of stuff it crashes. I've installed a temperarure monitor, and it seems to be when it get around 54/55 degrees core temperarure. According to my...

    Simon Biagi

    Hmmmm, anorexia is usually thought of as a female problem, but it can affect males also, so I wonder if he has this. If he is suffering from this I really feel for him. I remember him presenting the weather on one of the early morning shows a very long time ago. He certainly looked very fit...

    Stupid spin gym...or stupid me?!!!!

    Persevere. They are good and once you get the knack they do work. The trick is that when you pull it apart you immediately relax the arms, and then before it become slack and begins to hang you pull again. You can get about 50-60 'pulls' per 30 seconds. And you do feel your muscles burning.

    Julia's Hair

    If there's one thing that bugs me it's when anybody is speaking either on tv, or in real life and as they blink their fringe takes on a life of it's own. I'm desperate to reach out and push it away from their eyes! It would drive me mad if was mine, and it drives me mad to watch it on others...

    Why oh why

    I always wonder about the 'hand finished quilts'. They so proudly boast about the quality of the finish, and stress the hand finishing. Some of them are lovely, but at what cost to some poor sod working in a sweat shop somewhere else in the world??

    Why oh why

    Because either they are stupid, or they think we are. I believe the former to be true :grin:

    Just For Fun - Who Would You Like To See Presenting On QVC

    Oh yes please! Now that would be worth watching.

    Be the 'envy' of your friends

    Ones with a very strong bladder and no fashion sense presumably. :call:

    Chuntley........ aaaaagh

    I think she is trying to be ultra feminine, and ends up sounding wet and wappy! It's a very irritating way of speaking, she hasn't always spoken like that. I can't watch her at all because of it, and I can tolerate most people.
