In what must be the longest closing down sale in history, the legendary Golf Shop that was a thorn in Westminster Council’s side for so many years is closing down.

The Golf Sale London Golf Shop was responsible for all those board holders on Oxford Street and Regent Street and the inspiration for the Golf Sale T-shirts as worn by Big Brother’s Brian on the Channel 4 Reality TV Show.

So if you want to grab a real bargain with up to 75% off top brands and are in London soon then give the Golf Sale London Golf Shop a visit.

When Gamucci launched their Classic electronic cigarette it was said that a range of flavoured cartridges would follow. Well these are now available for both the Gamucci Classic and Gamucci micro electronic cigarettes in Peach, Cheery, Apple, Coffee & Turkish Delight flavours in both regular strength (16mg nicotine) and Zero (0mg nicotine).

These are difficult to find but thanks to a tip off from a reader (Jon) you can get these from AC Electronics on Ebay. I’ve bought cartridges in the past from this seller and they arrived next day as promised. They also sell the standard cartridges as well.

I’m tempted to try out some of the new flavours but still have quite a lot of the regular tobacco flavour ones left so if anyone has tried these let us know your thoughts on the different flavours.

I had my teeth whitened about 6 years ago and was really impressed with the results although it did cost me about £600. The only thing with it was that for a few days afterwards my teeth were really sensitive and it was painful at times but it did wear off after a while.

The dentist at the time did explain to me that the results wouldn’t be permanent as at the time I smoked, drank coke and coffee by the bucket load and they would get stained again over time. He was right.

Now that I have given up smoking I decided I would give it another go but was concerned about the sensitivity issue as last time it was a pain. A friend of mine in London put me in touch with the Mayfair Tanning and Waxing company who have recently introduced teeth whitening in London to their services and they use a slightly different process to what I had before that wasn’t sensitive to teeth. I was going up to London anyway for the day so I called them up and spoke to Nicole who went through the process with me and booked me in to have it done.

When I arrived at their salon in Maddox Street, (just off Regents Street) I was greeted by Nicole who once again talked me through the process which involved me sitting in the chair and having about six 3 minute treatments where the gel would be put on my teeth and then a light shone on them for 3 minutes and so on. The whole process took about 45 minutes to do and they did a before and after check on the colour of my teeth and the end result was 6 shades lighter!

I have to say I was really impressed with the outcome with no sensitivity problems and best of all it only cost £199. That’s a whopping £400 less than I paid 6 years ago.

So if you fancy a brighter smile and don’t have the patience for a home kit then give Nicole a ring on 020 7493 1822 and book yourself in. You won’t regret it.

I have many talents but DIY is definately not one of them. I would be in one of the many statistics like “DIY accidents” or “Getting someone in to finish the job properly” so when we needed to create more storage room by boarding out our garage loft I did the sensible thing in calling someone in to do it for me.

Now I don’t know about you but I’ve always found it difficult to find reliable tradesmen but luckily a good friend of mine put me onto C and D Carpentry Services Ltd. They came round and gave me a quote which was half the price I had been given by someone else so I took them up on it and we fixed a date.

They turned up when they said they would, did a fantastic job and even cleared up to the extent you wouldn’t have know they had even been there. So impressed with their service and quality of work, I got them to board out my loft and put a loft ladder in as well.

So if you’re looking for a good reliable carpenter in Aylesbury, give them a call on 01296 630003.

At about 1 am this morning I was lying in bed and heard this strange rumbling noise and felt the whole bed shaking. It was really strange and at one point felt that our cat must have been in the room and was jumping up and down on my legs.

About 10 seconds later it stopped and I layed there wondering if the cat was still in the room. Moments later my girlfirend who was working on the computer downstairs came running up asking “did you feel that”. I said yes and told her I thought the cat was in the room when she explained the whole room downstairs was shaking and it must have been an earthquake.

We don’t get many earthquakes in this country and I thought no more of it until I turned on the radio in the morning to hear there was in fact an earthquake.

Well it turns out the epicentre was in Market Rasen in Lincolnshire 138 miles away. It was a shock for us but I can’t imagine what it was like there.
