Ghost - Buried At Sea

Buzz into Bury?

Advantages: Very good value for money, for facilities offered, especially for families
Disadvantages: none

Bury might not be the top of everyone?s destination list, although it is not a million miles from the more popular city centre of Manchester (and linked to the city via the metrolink network). However being from Lancashire originally, I have just spent the best part of the last two weeks in the region, including a couple of nights at the Village Hotel and Leisure Club at Bury. Village Hotels are part of a much larger group, including De Vere Hotels, Malmaison and Hotel du Vin. I have been familiar with Village Hotels for a long time, having frequented many a works conference or party at other hotels within the North West 15-20 years ago; (however I should point out that I now work for another part of this group.) The hotel, which is a modern purpose built hotel, is easy to find from the Manchester Ring Road ? situated just off ...

Review of Village Hotel & Leisure Club, Bury

Ghost Sweetheart

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. It is very reasonably priced although I have got through almost the whole bottle very quickly as it is such ...

Review of Ghost Sweetheart

Besides the sea

Advantages: "We joined the navy to see the world?."
Disadvantages: "And what did we see? We saw the sea." (Irving Berlin)

?I must go down to the seas again, To the lonely sea and the sky.? (John Masefield) Never fear; I?m not about to start waxing lyrical about the sea. I?m more in the Irving Berlin camp than in the Masefield. I quote the lines above to illustrate the fact that even the most feverish of fanatics for the sea has to admit that maritime views are limited, consisting as they do of just two lonely elements: water and sky. And it?s stretching a point to include the sky, which can equally be seen above land as above sea. So, essentially, we?re talking about water. Water, it might be argued, is not entirely monotonous to look at. The sea has moods, which it expresses in the colour of its complexion. Sometimes, it can be a tranquil turquoise, sometimes an inscrutable indigo, sometimes a grudging greeny-grey. Occasionally, it rears ...
