  Think about it.  Just how excited can you get about a bean???

  • Okay, so Haricots have had a pretty major impact on us all.  The culinary marvel of ‘Beans on Toast’ (aka, ‘Skinheads on a Raft’) is a part of the Great British way of life.  (Continue reading…)

  When we travel abroad we will often come up against the language barrier, and this can be really frustrating when we need to communicate.  It would be so much easier if we all spoke the same language wouldn’t it?  We could still have our own cultures with their unique customs, but we would be able to understand one another! 

  However, some things are universal…  You can travel to virtually any place in the world and one of the drinks of choice will be coffee.  Even though we have our differences in our beliefs and opinions, it would seem that most of us can agree on certain things!  (Continue reading…)

  Many of our modern hair dyes contain some rather unsavoury ingredients.  They may do a good job of dying your hair, but they can also be the cause of rashes or other skin irritations in many people. 

   Hundreds of people are looking online everyday for natural hair dye recipes.  Some of these are more effective than others and it is often a case of trial and error.  However, none of them are made up from nasty chemicals.  (Continue reading…)

[reblogged from flickr]

  I am nuts about my coffee, so I was really excited when my boss told us he had ordered a new vending machine.  We’ve had this one in the canteen for years and it isn’t very good.  It works okay (most of the time…) but the drinks could be a lot better.  (Continue reading…)
