Advantages: Smooth and lavish bubbles, skin softening, subtle scent. Disadvantages: You need a fair bit to get the best bubbles.
I have done really well recently and resisted impulse buying bath products until my bathroom was nearly empty. I actually get a rather odd sense of achievement when I finish a bottle of shower gel or bath cream! So I have now raided the bargains of the high street and stocked up again.
Price & Packaging
Imperial Leather has just released two limited edition bath creams for the autumn and winter months. At £1 for a 500ml bottle it?s hard not to grab and go when you see these on the shelf! The Satin bottle is a smooth curved shape, making it easy to grip in a steamy room. The creamy pearlescent shower cream can be seen through the clear bottle and it matches the colour of the pull off lid exactly. With what looks like a soft satinsheet on the front of the bottle, you can?t help but imagine a slightly indulgent bath ...
Advantages: Subtle sheens look better indoors, especially on small delicate objects. Disadvantages: Still has the odour until it dries.
.79 for the 250ml) They also stock One Litre tins, which nobody else seems to have.
It is now available in 400ml spray cans, (£7.98)
Hammerite is a very good gap filler, and covers areas of pitting due to rust.
It will not leave brush marks if applied properly
You can apply with a brush, (disposable if you like) or for small areas just use a sponge etc.
The smooth satin finish is great for doing stuff in the house, like ornaments, coal scuttles, (De-longi dragon type heaters look very nice, and you can choose your own colour.) etc.
Don't forget you can apply one base coat, and then pick out detail in another contrasting colour.
This product keeps in the tin for many years, although Hammerite recommend discarding after two years. It lasts too, and can be re-coated as needed, (or if you fancy a colour change)
It stays on ...

Advantages: Visually nice, Affleck does fine. Disadvantages: Dull, generic plotting, boring action, lack of originality.
Giamatti (Harvey Pekar in American Splendor) in a relatively major role. The one actor I couldn't entirely get my head around was Michael C Hall as an FBI agent, who appeared to just be playing a slightly more wired version of his character David Fisher from Six Feet Under.
Aside from minor quibbles, it was going quite well, until the story itself fully kicked in. Once Jennings awoke from the three year job and the mystery element began, it all seemed to fall apart. First off, if anyone has seen The Bourne Identity, you really have little need with Paycheck, as the entire concept of not being able to remember your past coupled with a package of items to help you and a bunch of people chasing you will seem awfully familiar. It's an interesting note that Matt Damon actually passed on taking the Jennings role in Paycheck because of these ...
