Lavender feet warmers and Lavender neck warmers (both £19.95) are available from Co-operative Xest, a site designed to make life easier.
Well, these two warming items make life toastier! I hate having cold toes, and the slippers are just wonderful. Warming up the cotswolds wheat sacks in the microwave takes a couple of minutes but gives you soothing comfort again and again.

The Sanctuary Spa relax and Unwind Revival bag is another addition to the gorgeous Sanctuary range, available at Boots.
Included are body wash, body lotion (both 75ml), body scrub (50ml), Foaming bath soak and Luxury bath float (both 75ml). There is also a body brush and golden wash bag, not bad at all for £15.00.
What struck me about this product was the beautiful smell, which I detected before I had even opened the box it came in. I duly ran the fiancée a bath and just stopped short of throwing her in. Gorgeous (Sanctuary products / Fiancee).

Electronic Arts Sequel to “Active Personal Trainer” is “Active More Workouts” and is exactly that, a right work out. I am knackered.
Retailing at £29.99, this is excellent value. The Active range gives you your own virtual personal trainer to guide you through the various exercises, like running, squatting and bicep curls. All the time, your coach is giving you feedback and advice to improve your exercise routine.
This is always going to be compared to Wii’s Fit, but I prefer this version and it’s different take on exercise. This release is more pushed towards hard work and sweat, rather than prancing around in daft yoga positions. It is two player, which is great for bringing out any competitiveness with your partner.
