Aren't Sunday roasts just fantastic? Especially when my Nan makes them (or my Mum these days). As a kid, the weekends were definitely the thing to look forward to (after Birthdays, Christmas, Easter and any other days we got presents). And why was that? We
The Best of Wirral is proud to announce that one of our members, Jan McDermott (of Jan McDermott & Co Chartered Accountants) has been elected to the prestigious position of Vice President of the Liverpool Society of Chartered Accountants.The Liverpool Soci
You Don't Mess With the Zohan is the latest film from comic legend, Adam Sandler. That means that by now you will probably know whether or not you will like this film. It is the stereotypical Sandler movie. If you are a fan of his previous work such as Hap
Guest Writer: Asher TownsendThe Clone Wars begins with the kidnapping of Jabba the Hutt's son. Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi are chosen to go and search for the 'hutt-ling'. They do so, but before they set off, Anakin is presented with a padawan name
I should probably come clean and admit it was VERY unlikely that I would dislike this film. I'm a massive comic book fan who loved Batman Begins. Christopher Nolan is one of the best directors in film today making great films like Memento and The Prestige.
I recently read about the proposed curfew introduced in Cornwall over the school summer holidays. Under the terms of the curfew children under 16 must be indoors by 9pm and under 10's by 8pm. It sounds like a great idea, getting all the yobs off the street
When to Save:Furniture: As well as splashing out on select items which will last, it's well worth giving pre-owned furniture a thought. We are now being encouraged to recycle as much as possible and an excellent way of doing so is by buying good quality se
I recently read an article which stipulated what items we should be splashing out on, and what we should be saving on. Whilst a few of the items listed are plain common sense, I found some of them to be a bit, well, completely barmy! So with that in mind I
About a year ago I got into this really stupid conversation with one of the security guards from the place I was working in at the time. He was talking about McDonalds chicken burgers being the best thing ever, or similar, and all I said was, 'I can make b
With rising fuel costs, the credit crunch and the cost of living not reflecting incomes we need to be more considerate about what we buy and where we buy from than ever. Some of us may be "lucky enough" to live quite near to supermarkets, whilst others may
With the plethora of average animated family films (I'm looking at you Shark Tale!) some may be sceptical about going to see Kung Fu Panda, but don't be. This film is one of the most enjoyable films of the year, it's funny, entertaining and its short runti
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if Superman arrived on Earth and was a real jerk? Grumpily helping people, insulting people and flying while drunk, then Hancock is for you!The film revolves around Hancock (Will Smith), the reluctant superman w
Every summer for the past four years, the boyfriend, a couple of friends and me have gone on these fantastic holidays with Pontins. Why would four adults want to go to a holiday complex that was filled with kids? Particularly when one of these adults doesn
Recently I went strawberry picking in Thurstaston, up by White's Farm Shop. Now I'm not one for the great outdoors; trudging about in fields for fun is just not my cup of tea. But I tell you what, it was great fun! I love strawberries, but as a rule I'm us
My cooking is all about guesswork. I find that I get the best results that way. The recipes I use tend to come from other sources (internet, magazines, TV programmes etc) and then I mix and match ingredients, changing the bits I don't like and making it a
It is safe to say I am somewhat of a comic book geek; I always go to see the latest superhero movies when they come out and was delighted to hear that long time comic book tycoons Marvel were to be producing their own films as it would mean past adaptation
I should probably open this review by stating that I am not one of those internet critics who moan about M. Night Shyamalan. Apart from Lady in the Water I've enjoyed them all, particularly The Village and Signs and after an excellent ad campaign I was loo
After almost 20 years Harrison Ford dusts off the old fedora and prepares for his latest archaeological adventure. This time the older Indy is attempting to save old friend Professor Henry 'Ox' Oxley (John Hurt) and uncover the mysterious origins of the Cr
