The other week I was out shopping , when I decided to have a rummage in one of the many charity shops in my local town. I find shops like these great for finding DVDs and books (quite often , in very good condition!) at a really good price , and so I find by buying these this way I save a lot of a money and get more DVDs for a £10 in the shop , than I can if I buy them on the internet.
Browsing through the huge collection of DVDs , all standing neatly on the shelves before my eyes , One with a red cover caught my eyes. 'Jimmy Carr : In Concert' was the title. I didn't really know much about this Jimmy Carr , although I remember him being a guest on a television chat show programme (I think it was Charlotte Church's show) and finding him quite funny , and so I decided what he was really like as a stand-up comedian.
Jimmy Carr is ...
Advantages: cleans well, makes light work of dirt, CHEAP Disadvantages: Leaves a smell on hands after use
When I got to the checkout on my last shopping trip I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to get my usual multi purpose wipes so asked hubby to go and grab a packet. Now I have been using the same brand for a very long time but for some reason hubby could not remember which ones they were and came back with these ones. I did let him off though as I did need them for the bathroom and decided I would try these instead.
~~THE PACKET~~
The wipes come in a flat packet which is very similar to a packet of baby wipes. It is blue in colour and has the product name at the top with a picture of a shiny bathroom and under this is a red rectangle which contains the claims that these wipes will remove soap scum and control the build up of lime scale. The back of the packet has a white rectangle down the left hand side which has all ...
Advantages: Pleasant enough chick lit, good premise to the story Disadvantages: Characters weren't likeable, not as good as Fallon's subsequent novel
Having recently read (and thoroughly enjoyed) Jane Fallon's second novel, Got You Back, I looked forward to reading this, her debut novel. I managed to pick up a copy of Getting Rid Of Matthew in a local charity shop, paying only £1.50, rather than the RRP of £6.99, so I got a bargain.
Settling down to read this novel I found myself enjoying the relaxed writing style of Jane Fallon once more. There were some similarities in terms of plot between this and her subsequent novel. Both stories feature a married man having an affair with another woman. In 'Getting Rid of Matthew', the married man is a successful businessman (Matthew) who has been having a long-term affair with one of his employees (Helen) behind his wife's back (Sophie.) In a clever twist, this novel sees the married man leave his wife and children and move in with his ...

Album Notes
Personnel: Jimmy Fallon (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Gerald Bradford (guitar, background vocals); Mark Ronson (keyboards, bass, background vocals); Justin Stanley (keyboards, drums, background vocals); Peter Iselin (keyboards); Nadia Dajani (background vocals). Recorded at The Hit Factory, New York, New York; Cello Studios, Los Angeles, California. THE BATHROOM WALL was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Spoken Comedy Album. Hot on the heels of his hosting the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards comes Jimmy Fallon's comedy album debut THE BATHROOM WALL. As with his work as a cast member of Saturday Night Live, Fallon's strength comes from his ability to draw from straight stand-up, hilarious impressions, and deft musical parodies. Wielding an impressive falsetto, the young comic rips through original songs that range from country honk Rolling Stones ("Idiot Boyfriend") to a Beastie Boys-flavored confessional ("[I Can't Play] Basketball"). Equally impressive is "Troll Doll Celebrities," one of his earliest bits where in a fictional audition for an ad campaign endorsing these odd-looking figures, Fallon gets to run through an array of uncanny celebrity impressions including Robin Williams, John Travolta's Vinnie Barbarino. and Adam Sandler. The musical segment of this bit, "Troll Doll Jingles," finds the excitable Saugerties native delivering spot-on parodies of songs by Dave Matthews ("So Much To Say"), U2 ("Desire"), and Coldplay ("Yellow"). This musical mayhem continues on "Hammertime," a segment doubling as an homage to the '80s that finds Fallon insisting any song from that era can be sung to the sound of MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This" including "Come On Eileen," "Der Kommisar," and "The Safety Dance."
