Advantages: Easy to follow routines that are so short you don't get bored

...eating where Claire is interviewed and discusses how her eating habits have changed. Mine also came with a recipe book and a resistance band so it really was a great buy. I've just had another baby and will dust it off again once I've had the all clear. ... Read review

Advantages: Precise clear demonstrations
Disadvantages: 1980's style - very dated

As a beginner to sugarcraft this dvd cover looked exactly like the type of thing I wanted to be able to create, I thought the dvd would show me how to re-create the cake on the front cover and more alike - this cake is not mentioned, clearly an up to date cover!! Very dated format and the only soundtrack is such an annoying child-like jingle. Although I was initially disappointed Elaine MacGregor is clearly very talented and gives good clear and ...
...each subject and you do gain so much more than looking through sugarcraft books. You just can't beat being shown, somethings I just couldn't grasp from the vast amount of books available. Lots of ideas to try and once again, althought the examples are dated you are shown the skills to put into practice on modern designs of your own. It gave me an insight of how things are done properly instead of me guessing how to do it! Sugar Models - you are ... Read review

Advantages: Varied workout, fun, enjoyable, great value for money
Disadvantages: annoying smiles throughout

...have to say I prefer Rosemary Conley's Brand New you Workout above the other two. Heres why: The cover is eye catching and has a picture of Coleen Nolan on the front at her previous and new size. The workout is separated into sections starting with an introduction from Rosemary Conley which I would watch before you had your first go. Section 1 is the warm up which is 7 minutes long. This does what it says and warms you up! It stretches muscles ...
...3 times a week although Rosemary Conley says to do 30 minutes of exercise 5 times a week (which equates to about the same lol). You can quite easily do the warm up plus 1 of the other sections followed by the cooldown if you are short on time. I highly recommend this dvd to someone who wants to feel challenged as the women taking part are all working at different levels and have lost a lot of weight. Once you feel it getting a bit easy, crank it ... Read review

Advantages: Better than all these other stupid celebrity exercise DVD's that crowd the shelves...
Disadvantages: Not as good as her 'Next Challenge' 1993 workout...

♥ Cindy Crawford ♥ Ms. Crawford first entered into the world of fitness DVD's in 1992 with 'Cindy Crawford: Shape Your Body Workout'. I never did own or try this workout but it was incredibly successful leading to the release of her incredible 1993 DVD workout entitled 'Cindy Crawford: The Next Challenge Workout'. Although this dvd is now 15 years old I still use it to this day and the results are just phenomenal. I am not at all EMBARRASSED ...
...about them but they laugh it off but hey, who's got the rocking body! So many of these so-called celebrities are releasing fitness DVD's left, right and center nowadays to earn a quick buck and it's hard to keep track of and most of them are absolutely useless. *Cough* Danielle Lloyd *Cough*. So when you do find a DVD that truly does work you out to the max, to the point where you are feeling like you are going to pass out halfway through and are ... Read review

Advantages: Great questions, can be bought very cheap
Disadvantages: Shoddy quality DVD, very slow gameplay ruins tension

For my housemate's 21st birthday, we decided to buy a few board games. We've already got 4 'Scene It?''s and we're big fans of DVD board games. Looking on Amazon.co.uk we came across 'Fingers on Buzzers' for just £3.15 and after seeing rave reviews of it we thought why not? The game arrived this morning, and we were both very impressed with the packaging. It's in a Video casette type case, which holds the buzzers as well as the DVD itself. There ...
...As a whole the game is small in size so it's great for kids to take to their grandparents' or to a friends' house. Also very easy to store. SETTING UP This was relatively easy. You have to establish a connection between the buzzer box and your remote control for the game to work and this involves holding down buttons and pressing the remote control at the right time while they're facing each other. Easy enough, although one of the LED's on the ... Read review
