    Random musings and general banter.

    Had the trauma to see Pervy Pete with the Princess Air Cooling Launch - Princess 3-in-1 Air Conditioner. Trauma because of witnessing him camping it up under the duvet with the demonstrator of the system. Of course they sold out the stock with their great saving over Argos plus the advantage of...

    Now I have seen it all!!

    'Interesting' that the Cavills have found a place on Gemporia and not pursued the company formerly known as Rocks and Co to continue their on screen presence. Though I see that the Cavill brand is showing in the inventory at Rocks. Toby today using his experience and relationship with Steve...

    Nourish London

    I have wondered before now about comparative pricing. The most remarkable differences seem to be attributed to the Elizabeth Grant range. Its not a product for me so I just don't know but it seems that IW are regularly claiming discounts which must be in the region of 70 to 80%. I get it that...

    Now I have seen it all!!

    I saw Cherry presenting today, or was it yesterday. But she was enthusiastically bigging up her mothers knowledge -which may well be true. But also that Toby is home having lived in Thailand and some suggestion that he might be making an appearance again soon. She didn't say where. Could it be...

    Now I have seen it all!!

    I suppose that I shouldn't really be surprised. And if I unexpectedly found myself out of work I would be looking for another role in sector that I had experience in.... However seen on camera today on Gemporia 'producer Cherry'. Yes that is the one and only Cherry Cavill of the legendary...

    Random musings and general banter.

    I may have this completely wrong, however.... Twice now I have watched the opening sequence of 'How to Lose Weight Well' on Channel 4. And each time I am sure that its IW's Joe Remblance that is saying 'I'd rather pull my toe nails out!' Like I said I could be wrong - but supposing I am right...

    They are selling tea - for heavens sake!

    I have never bought from TJC but its one of the channels that I flick on to way to frequently - clearly I am easily distracted! I have gotten used to seeing all manner of non J items up for sale (you will understand that I refuse to use the word auction for any channel of this genre), BUT the...

    Gemporia now an employee owned Company

    The latest self promotion by Steve Bennett so that you can feel better about spending your hard earned with him. He started the company so he will be entitled to employ his family and ensure that they are well rewarded for their efforts I expect. The promo is predictably non specific as to what...

    Rocks & Co Decline

    I got lucky with Rocks. I watch(ed) on Freeview channel 40 but if I go there now I just get a screen that lets me know that its 'On air daily 2am-5am' when fortunately I am tucked up in my bed asleep. It is now actually on Freeview 271 but if I dial that in my television states 'Your device is...

    Is anybody buying?

    Having just seen Dave Troth working hard to shift product I am more convinced that he is the Chief of Deception as well as everything else on his Job Description. The rarest mineral in the world Astrophyllite Druzy according to Dave, well perhaps its not that abundantly available but...

    Is anybody buying?

    Actually I have bought from them. Well I say bought I mean 'bought on approval'! But I wonder if there has been a change in their use of Feefo. It seemed to me that the Feefo request came quite soon after the items had been dispatched and so received allowing me to make detailed feedback on the...

    The Real Pie Company TSV 20/04/18

    OK so never never never would I consider buying food products from Q. Aside from the tragic quality issues and the fact that the pricing is absolutely scandalous! But it never occurred to me that they would sell these compromised products to customers who would choose the auto delivery format...

    Item developed fault. Deal with IW or manufacturer?

    IW have what appears to be a standard response on Trustpilot when customers have cause to complain.... 'Many Thanks for your comments and I am sorry to see that you are unhappy with the service you have received. Please can I ask that you send us an inbox message on Social Media at the...

    One-hit wonders!

    What about Wish Pearls?! I never liked the whole idea of opening the tin to find the preserved mollusc and prodding around in the meat with the plastic spatula to find the pearl within. Never seemed in any way magical to me. But the website claims, 'Wish pearl jewelry is so special! You never...

    Rocks and Co - no more!!

    At last!! Perhaps we knew, but flicking to Rocks on Freeview at mid day and the graphics say that the next live show is the Lance Fisher on Friday 26 January! Meanwhile on the web site they are carrying the German feed with just the German presenter being broadcast. Its the basic silver and gold...

    Random musings and general banter.

    Have you seen on Trust Pilot that IW are responding to feedback and asking those with a complaint to contact them via [email protected] - they have a dedicated email address! Hopefully it is read by UK staff who are actually motivated to and capable of reaching...

    Rocks and Co - no more!!

    So much of this tells us how many 'tales' we have been spun by the designers, gem hunters and presenters on Rocks over recent years and months. The UK was closed as it was unprofitable but we were told that by the 'Outlet' format times of the channel when 'this is below our cost' was the mantra...

    Rocks and Co - no more!!

    FYI the 'company' has responded to some posts on the Trustpilot site stating that although the Euro sign on screen has been replaced by the £ sign 'Unfortunately you have misunderstood our UK customers do not pay 10% more. On screen if the price says £699 you will actually pay 10% less than the...

    Rocks and Co - no more!!

    So the company consolidated x many channels across Europe leaving them with the German operation and 'America'! The Amayani presentation is more like a jumble sale. Every item is on and gone, probably to the internet buyers as they will get the opportunity that a phone customer just can't...

    The Real Pie Company TSV 16/01/18

    Pure profiteering and just almost extortion. These products are way way way overpriced and a better product at a better price is available in every supermarket, farmers market and local butchers. Shame on you QVC!
