Zippo’s are truly Iconic and have been around since the 1930s. Their unparalleled lifetime guarantee makes these perfect keepsakes, a gift forever.
As Iron Man 2 is hitting our screens, the soundtrack again backed up by the power that is ACDC, I thought it would be good to feature this rather fine Zippo. ACDC and Zippo go together lovely - been around for a while, still delivering and performing, classic bad boy image, They both rock!
The zippo website has a great retail locator, so you can find your nearest stockist very easily. The Back In Black Zippo will only set you back £21.95.
Zippo have not rested on their laurels. They have produced some great new ranges, such as the Blu butane gas lighter and the Armour range. An Armour Case lighter has heavy-walled armour which is 1.5 times as thick as a standard Zippo case. It’s one for the tough guys. Prices start from £35 for the Blu and £19.90 for the Armour Brushed Chrome model.
Remember, a zippo is not just for Christmas. It’s yours for a lifetime. If it breaks, Zippo fix it free of charge.

Do you ever come home from swimming, or from a day at the seaside and feel like your hair has been thoroughly damaged from all the chlorine or salt? Are you looking for a product that will help you hair survive the summer? Is £18 a good price to protect the hair of your little ones? I definitely think so and will be advising everyone to go out and buy this product.
Philip Kingsley brings you his world famous Swimcap, a must have for your summer holidays. Water and weatherproof your hair with this unique formulation. Swimcap guards against discolouration and damage caused by weathering from sun (UV damage), chlorine, salt, water and wind. This ultra-conditioning sun protector for hair is a holiday necessity. Also while protecting your hair, it provides a luxurious, ultra conditioning treatment which draws moisture into the hair.
Swimcap was originally designed for the US Olympic Synchronised Swimming Team, and is perfect for preventing blonde hair from turning green in chlorinated water. It provides unparalleled protection and condition for adults and is also ideal for protecting, nourishing and detangling the locks of your little ones too. I know that it will be the number one product I will be bringing to the seaside this summer, for my boys and me.
I would also like to mention the selection of Travel Jet Sets that are available. These are small enough to fit into any wash bag and are a perfect introduction to the Philip Kingsley hair care collection. The sets contain a generous 75ml shampoo and conditioner duo and three resealable, award winning Elasticizer sachets (20ml) to keep your locks looking fabulous whilst travelling. These sets are available in 5 combinations (listed below), so whatever kind of hair you have, there will be one that will be perfect for you. They are:-
-Body and Volume Jet Set
-Body and Shine Jet Set
-Soft and Shiny Jet Set
-Smooth and Shiny Jet Set
-Take Comfort Jet Set
I sampled the Take Comfort Jet Set which is suitable for flaky & itchy scalps by keeping flaking at bay whilst soothing irritated scalps. It leaves your hair soft shiny and manageable. This set features Flaky Itchy Shampoo, Moisture Balancing Conditioner and Flaky Itchy Scalp Tonic. I must admit, I suffer with a flaky scalp and cannot use a lot of products because of this, however after trying Philip Kingsley soothing hair products I am really impressed. Not only does it do what it says on the bottle, a little amount goes a long way. So at a price of £19 for the set, you really are getting your moneys worth.
Both products are available from http://www.philipkingsley.com
Welcome to summer, the dreaded season for many hayfever sufferers. My Fiancé suffers quite badly with it and now my 5 year old has started also. So I would like to thank Haymax for introducing the only drug-free, 100% non-drowsy pollen barrier balm in the UK. This is proving highly effective and beneficial for hayfever sufferers of all ages.
Haymax is a very simple but effective product, not to mention very cost effective. You only need to use a tiny amount so the small pot should last you for the whole summer. The balm is extremely easy to use and small enough to pop into your handbag or pocket
By using real essential oils, the haymax balm is completely drug free so you can use it even if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding or if you’re a young child. I know that I will be using it on my little boy (and big boy!) all summer. When applied, the balm feels really light, like you have nothing on at all. It is invisible, leaves no odours at all and can be used easily with make-up. Haymax really does pack a punch with pollen, by trapping the pollen before it gets into the nose. The balm can be used in conjunction with other hayfever products.
HayMax is available in three varieties – Pure, Lavender and Aloe Vera. All varieties come in convenient, travel-friendly and pocket-sized tubs.
It has been recommended frequently in the national press and by Janey Lee Grace, as well as Dr Chris Steele MBE on ITV’s This Morning four times.
HayMax™ retails at £6.95 for a 5ml pot and is available from http://www.haymax.biz, on 01525 406600 or from Holland & Barrett, Asda, Lloydspharmacy and selected Boots, Tesco, Waitrose and The Co-operative pharmacy, chemists, pharmacies and health food stores nationwide.
I recently had a great weekend catching up with my friends. We had a BBQ, some beers and then I bought out the Wildsling and the evening went to whole new fun factor.
This beast of a toy (Age limit 16 years plus) is immense! It’s nearly surreal watching the water balloons being fired up to 300 ft. It is certainly a lot of fun. I love the fact it is a three man operation, which adds to the bonding.
Men will bond over this sling, I promise!
Included are 1 Launcher, 150 Water Balloons & Carry Case. Priced £12.95. I challenge anyone not to have fun with this. It really is the ultimate summer toy. The Wildsling can be purchased from the excellent site http://www.gettingpersonal.co.uk - This is a great resource for gift ideas as well.
Just, please promise, do not use yourself as a target. This happened, I was said target (it was the beer’s fault), It hurts, Lots….for days. I believe there is a video of this incident on youtube. Apart from the severe smacking sound you can hear on impact, all you can hear is laughter and lot’s of it.
Fun, laughter and good times are companions of this wonderful invention.
