The Lies of Secret Keepers

The phrase 'can you keep a secret' is abused from playground age until it turns into a ridiculous form of grandstanding. They are really asking if it is okay to use you as a sounding board to justify their choices or opinions. I'm sure we've all heard a 'secret' rumour or been confided in over a matter of questionable choice. Surely by confiding in another, the person in question is actually saying that they can't be trusted to keep their own silence.

Death of The Funeral

Respect be dammed! A funeral contains secreted bottles of alcohol, a fashion parade, loud insults and an epic display of a clashing variety of addictions.
At least that's what I recently witnessed. My face twisted with disgust and my heart sick with shame.

Remington Stylist Easy Curl Review

The Remington Stylist Easy Curl (Model Number CI6219 for those in the know), retails for approximately £30.
It lays claim to all the normal boasts of perfect curls, minimum effort and salon professional transformations. I beg to differ.


Bought at my daughters behest, to bring some form to her poker straight hair, I chose this particular version because it bore no resemblance to my 90's tongs and appeared idiot proof.

Castlevania: Lord of Shadows 2 ~ The Watcher

This had been bugging me for a while now, I knew that some sort of comment was required for such an anticipated game. I loved Castlevania: Lord of Shadows, but sadly felt a little let down by Lord of Shadows 2. Four years we've waited for the sequel with tempting snippets and trailers released at periodic intervals.
Last year they even went so far as to drop Mirrors of Fate on us, a tag along storyline originally for the Nintendo 3DS (Picked up on other consoles later in the year and the PC in March 2014), it followed the storyline of the descendant of Gabriel. Apparently his family were destined to be whiny, angry children hell bent on unknowingly destroying their linage (Who would have guessed?!).
