Advantages: Light and easy to wear Disadvantages: Quite girly, not to everyone's taste
I first tried this perfume as I wanted a fragrance which was light and fresh but not too citrus-y as I have found this scent turns sour after a while. I tried a number of perfumes before I found Ghost Sweetheart. It was quite different from what I would normally try as the packaging is very girly and feminine. The box is a soft pink colour and the perfume bottle is tall and slim, a light pinkish peach in colour with a frosted glass effect. The bottle is quite elegant and a handy shape to put into a makeup bag or handbag. As for the scent itself, it is light and floral and sweet-smelling without being sickly. The scent is not overpowering and makes for a great feminine summer time fragrance to wear during the day or at night.

Advantages: an intriguing storyline Disadvantages: disappointing characters
I knew I was taking a bit of a risk reading ?A Ghost at the Table?, as it does not fit in with the usual books I read.

The Ghost at the Table is set in the US and is written by Suzanne Berne, who has won the Orange Prize for another of her novels. It takes place one Thanksgiving and focuses on a highly dysfunctional family as they get together to celebrate. The story is told ...
Advantages: Whoopi Goldberg is fab Disadvantages: out of date and no longer cutting it
Film - Ghost
Stars - Demi Moore, Patrick Swayze, Whoopi Goldberg
Plot - Molly and Sam are madly in love. One night while walking home Sam is shot by a man attempting to steal his wallet and dies. But this isnt the end of Sam, as he becomes trapped somewhere between life and death. Noone can hear or feel him, except for psychic phoney Oda Mae Brown who discovers she does in fact have the supernatural gift. With her reluctantly helping him, Sam realises that his death was more than a straight forward mugging and must act quickly in order to save Molly from danger.
Whats it like? - This is a film that people have gone on about to me for years and so I was eager to see it at last. Sadly it didn't perform for me. I was surprised to see this was made in 1990 as it has a much earlier 80's feel about it and is very dated. Its also ...
