Advantages: No clumping, lovely lashes Disadvantages: I can't find any online
Considering my tube of Margaret Astor mascara was free with a magazine, it is one of the best items of make up I have ever used.
I might not still have the magazine, let alone remember which one it was, but 7 months later I am still faithfully using my Margaret Astor Magic Style mascara. I have very sensitive eyes - anything remotely perfumed is out, and Maybelline Great Lash is a big no-no. Margaret Astor however is just right.
Packaging
In a nice, sleek silver tube, this is a simple yet attractive tube of mascara. It doesn't look cheap but nor is it snobbish. The top/wand has a clear plastic rounded end with a cute little flower on it. This logo adorns all of the Margaret Astor range. At approximately 4 inches long, the tube fits in any small makeup bag or you can pop it in your handbag to use after work or on a night out ...
Advantages: Gorgeous sultry tango music for late-night listening. Disadvantages: Only about 40 minutes of music, not to everyone's taste.
Argentinian AstorPiazzolla was responsible for the creation of "tango nuevo", or new/modern tango, fusing traditional tango music with jazz and classical elements. (If you know of Gotan Project, he was an inspiration for them - they also sometimes play his compositions.) While most of the other albums he recorded are sparklingly precise, this one is slightly rougher round the edges, often slow, sultry, even dirty - and deliberately so, Piazzolla himself said the music on this album was "meant to be played by drunk musicians in a bordello". Which is fair enough, given that is exactly where the tango originated.
This is a late recording, made in 1987 (he died in 1992) and features a small group of musicians playing piano, violin, bass, electric guitar, clarinet/alto sax, and bandoneon, which Piazzola himself plays - he did so ...
Advantages: Great food, reasonable fixed price menu Disadvantages: None
On our recent trip to the Loire Valley Mr Tart and myself arrived in Tours quite late on our first night. We drove down to Tours from Paris. We were going to stop for something to eat on the way but in the end decided to make our way straight to Tours and get settled in the hotel and then find something close by. A couple of minutes from our hotel we came across this place and were really glad that we did.
LOCATION:
La Chope is located at 25 Avenue Grammont. Our hotel was on the same road so we just came across it. It is about a ten minute walk from Tours? old town. The restaurant doesn?t stand out and the sign is not particularly bright so make sure you look out for it.
THE EXPERIENCE:
La Chope (which apparently translates as the tankard) is actually a fish restaurant. I?m not really a fish person (ok, that ...
