Lady Jane Grey and her short 9 day reign as Queen of England never featured in any of my history lessons at school. After reading this book I am still puzzled as to why that was. There's nothing I'd of been more interested in than a 16 year old girl being beheaded. Morbid little child as I was.
The Innocent Traitor follows the life of Jane Grey, from birth to her premature death. We get to see from her point of view as to how she felt she was unloved by her parents. Especially by her Mother Frances Brandon, neice of Henry VIII, who beat or whipped her eldest daughter for things which were not at all worth punishing her for.

Advantages: Really healthy; loads of flavours and varieties; great packaging Disadvantages: I feel guilty about recycling the little innocent faced bottle; tad expensive

Let me start with the bottle seeing as it is sooo cute. I have a 250ml transparent plastic bottle with a label around the centre. Because the bottle is transparent, you can see the smoothie sitting inside; a deep redish colour with little black bits like that of strawberries (as ...
Advantages: Complex, aromatic and reasonably priced fragrance Disadvantages: None that I can think of
*Hugo Boss have me impressed*
A recent convert to the world of men's fragrances any stronger smelling than a basic anti-perspirant, the warm, woody and very masculine scents of Hugo Boss Soul won me over from the moment I smelled them on a visit to our local Boots. Visiting the aftershave section seems to be something of a tradition for my girlfriend and I when Christmas or a Birthday is approaching, as she likes to pick up a nice smelly for me and no doubt a healthy chunk of Boots points for herself.
*Stylish packaging for a cool product*
The first thing that I noticed was the interesting distorted bottle that the product comes in. It's made from oddly curved glass that darkens from an almost colourless base up to a smoky purple-grey, with a similarly designed lid that looks something like an optical illusion depending on which ...
