**Introduction**
Fantasia Barrino is yet another success story in the history of American Idol. The North Carolina native made a name for herself during the Third season of the show back in 2004. You may not have known this but she comes from quite a musical family with her cousins Cedric and Joel Hailey of KCI & JoJo and Jodeci fame and also distant cousin of Dave Hollister of Blackstreet fame and solo singer Calvin Richardson. Fantasia had a tough life as a teenager and whilst a student at Andrews High School in High Point she was raped by a classmate and her life took on another challenge when she got pregnant at sixteen (not related) she raised the child on her own after her partner used to beat her.

I really get fedup of watching the same childrens tv programmes over and over , so last week we were in Tesco`s and we spotted this dvd for £5. It has a variety of characters on here like Thomas the Tank Engine , Barney , Oswald and Fireman Sam with a wintery theme.

Thomas The Tank Engine & Friends

The fat controller shows the trains a new invention a foghorn which is very noisy and the trains are really not impressed.
Cyril loses his job , Percy gets so annoyed with the foghorn because it is so noisy it makes the hillside shake and causes a landslide and is covered with rocks. The foghorn gets damaged , oh no not far away Thomas is on the track ...
This is one of Walt Disney's most famous films and well worth watching. I fist saw this film as a young child, and it had not lost it's magic when I watched it recently with my own children! It has a lovely mix of beautiful music and brilliant animation. Who could forget the marching brooms and the big, fat and pink hippos; and last but not least Mickey Mouse in his most funny role as The Sorcerer's Apprentice - getting up to all his usual tricks! Fantasia is a fantasic and unforgettable film for everyone in the family and would highly recommend it. ...
