In preparation for colder climes (although it seems they are unfortunately already here!) Woolworths have a great range of indoor toys to keep kids entertained. Among these great games is something that avid Twilight fans would be extremely eager to sink their teeth into!
The Twilight Saga Scene It? is a DVD/trivia game featuring hundreds of questions about all of your favourite moments from the Twilight movie. Playing this game could just well show you how big of a fan you are! However, it is more than just a trivia game! Scene It? also challenges you to use observation, memory, wordplay, and problem-solving to decode special DVD puzzles. Designed for two or more players, this trivia game is ideal for both serious and casual fans of Twilight. Scene it? is a great game for an evening with your twilight friends.
The DVD has good clips of the film and a lot of the questions are rather easy to answer. Although, don’t get too clever with it as there are some hard questions that only hardcore twilight fans would know! Some questions don’t even involve any knowledge of the film just pure concentration. It is a game that you can easily get absorbed into!
The box Contains the following:-
DVD
4x collectible metal tokens
100x trivia cards
30x fate cards
1x 6-sided die
1x 8-sided die
Instruction sheet
So, are you team Edward, or, team Jacob? Playing this game allows you to relive the passion and action of Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse all in one simple box. I do recommend this game for the ultimate of Twilight fans, and I am sure they would be ‘over the moon’ to receive it too!

Families just love to play board games over Christmas time or in fact, throughout the year! However, finding a game that the whole family (aged 12 and over) can enjoy can be difficult! One that I would like to suggest giving a go is The Really Nasty Horse Racing game. This game would suit all (especially the guys) as its competitive and great for those that like a bit of gambling and scheming – without the risk of losing money at the real horse races!
The game comes complete with all pieces needed to play—horses and jockeys, lane cards, Really Nasty cards, a rider-less horse to create more havoc and the usual dice, pencil and money. The object of the game is to win the most money at the race meeting and this can be done in one of two ways. Firstly, by getting your horse placed first, second or third in the race and secondly, by placing bets on winning horses.
The Really Nasty Horse Racing Game means that the whole family can enjoy a day at the races. It’s hugely competitive, so be careful of some rows! With the average game taking about 1 hour and 30 minutes, The Really Nasty Horse Racing Game is fantastic fun for all and one that you will look forward to replaying over and over again.
The box contains the following:-
• Six Horses and jockeys
• One Rider-less horse
• One Dice
• One Betting pencil
• Six Race cards
• Six Lane Cards
• 24 Really Nasty Cards
• Playing board
• Dry marker pen
• Large wad of paper money
The Really Nasty Horse Racing Game costs £19.99 and it can be bought from all good retailers including Amazon, Debenhams and WH Smith. Happy playing everyone! To purchase this game click here.
Oh, I do like a drink of Rum in the colder months! I was only introduced to it last year as Rum is a drink that never really interested me, but now I can’t get enough of it! Well, I know my limits! So when I was given the chance to try the new and latest Pink Pigeon Spiced Rum, there was no chance I would say no. And how right was I! This is indeed a tasty drink, and I have enjoyed sharing it with my girlfriends.
With its eye catching black and pink packaging, Pink Pigeon is ideal as a stocking filler for your girlfriend or as a lovely surprise for your best girlfriend /sister. It is a delicious base for cocktails or just as easy to drink with mixers. Whichever lady in your life you buy this for will be sure to thanking you again and again.
Newly launched in the UK, Pink Pigeon, The Indian Ocean Rum Company Berry Bros. & Rudd Spirits were delighted to introduce the Pink Pigeon, the first super premium, spiced rum from the Island of Mauritius. They say:-
“Although complex in flavour, this mould-breaking spiced rum is fantastically easy to drink and distilled five times with the purest of spirit. Pink Pigeon is blended with hand-pollinated and hand-picked natural vanilla from Madagascar and Reunion Islands. It incorporates a rich and golden appearance with a truly balanced sweetness.”
The vanilla tones do come through quite strong, but is you like to indulge in sweet things then this Rum is more than ideal for you. I do however recommend using it to make some of the best cocktails you have ever tasted as on its own, it could be quit sickly after a while! But, whilst mixed with delicious ingredients, you will never turn your back on Pink Pigeon. I tried out the Pink Mojito and was not disappointed! Here’s what you need to make it –
• 50ml Pink Pigeon
• 8 mint leaves
• 15ml lime juice
• 10ml sugar syrup
• Soda Top, served long
• 25-50ml cranberry juice
I hope you trust me in saying that this is one bottle that us ladies could really do with in our life. The cocktail opportunities are endless and it makes a perfect drink for a girls night in! Plus the striking looking bottle and luxury feel ensures that Pink Pigeon will be the perfect addition to your night. Pink Pigeon is the only rum in the market available in a Magnum size – that, I love!
Pink Pigeon spiced Rum is available through Speciality Drinks (Wholesalers) Whisky Exchange, The Drink Shop.com, Berry Bros. & Rudd and retails at £29.00. For more detail on the wonderful Rum, please check out http://www.pinkpigeonrum.com. Happy drinking ladies!
OK Peeps, this is a gift for you! I want to introduce Elsie, a really exciting new UK female singer.
She is going places…fast.
I will admit that I am enjoying X Factor, particularly for Gary Barlow’s overworked eyebrow and Louis Walsh’s lapses in composure and pitch. The acts aren’t all that bad either.
But I prefer my music a little more organic, a little more original and a lot more unique.
Labelled ‘One to watch’ by The Sunday Times, the debut album by this talented singer / songwriter is out early next year, produced by Jim Lowe, the man behind the Stereophonics’ sound.
What makes Elsie special? It’s a combination of an astounding vocal, hard work, and downright sassiness. She has attitude, yes, but it’s a good attitude. One that reflects that of the modern woman – feisty, confident and fun.
“I wanted to talk about what it’s like being a girl or young woman in the world today,” she says.
Elsie’s distinctive voice has been inspired by Blondie, maybe with a sprinkle of Sam Brown huskiness. Her disco rock sound is so right for now, and her band are as tight as it gets.
So your gift is a link to a free download of Elsie’s cover of the Streophonics ‘Dakota’ (click the link). You will agree with all the above once you have heard this, it’s a beauty.
Here’s Elsie’s cover of Let’s Stay Together….it is also rather good!
Her debut single will be released in January and there are two gigs in London before the end of the year at The 100 Club (Nov 11) and This Feeling (Dec 10).
If 2011 was Adele’s year, 2012 will surely be the year for this extra special new UK female singer, Elsie.
