Zoflora 3 in 1 review


Now I am defiantly stuck having to do the cleaning myself and no cleaner. I love to use products that have fragrances that assault your sense in a friendly way. I have two cats and , one husband and a son. All of which can be a bit smelly really especially when I have stinky rugby boots in my kitchen and I am am doing battle with my cats one of which is really quite evil. And then there the half eaten animals they leave behind and trust me my kitchen would smell if i didn't keep on top on it by using various products such as these. These products have a fragrance and I love using products with big bold bouncy fragrances that make the house smell lovely and fresh. It makes me feel happy and smiley and makes cleaning less of a bore. It leaves a lovely scent lingering in the rooms after I've finished cleaning

But, however lovely the fragrance, I still need to know that the product is actually working hard at keeping my floors and surfaces not just dirt but also germ free and this is what Zoflora does. Zoflora products make you want to clean your house!.


They have a range of concentrated disinfectant products with lots of really lovely fragrances, twelve in all in fact, including Bouquet, Lavender and - the two I was sent to to review - Springtime and Limited Edition Apple Orchard. Springtime smells lovely and fresh and floral . Apple Orchard smells of crisp green apples and is prefect as we head into Autumn finally. I love using this one in  kitchen where my two smell cats usually live, it smells so fresh and natural and invigorating and feels like bringing the outside inside.

The bottles are tiny, especially when compared to most cleaning product bottles, containing only 120ml, so they look more like a big bottle of hand sanitiser than a bottle of household cleaner, but that's because it's highly concentrated so you can dilute it to a 1 in 40 solution. That means that one 10ml capful makes 400ml so one small bottle makes up an amazing 4.8 litres of cleaning solution. You don't have to carry various cleaning products home from the shops bottles home from the shops as this has a multitude of uses. Less plastic to make the packaging bulky which results in  less bottles in being chucked out  so it's a wining situation for the environment.

The label promises a 3-in-1 action, namely a very impressive 99.9% of bacteria and viruses killed, odours eliminated and all day freshness. It's a very versatile product because you can use it with a mop or floorcloth, put it in a spray bottle for work surfaces or even use it neat in sinks, drains and toilet bowls.

I love the fact that the fragrances smell natural and fresh like perfume, not a manufactured chemical smell partially disguised by fragrance, as you get with some products. I was actually surprised to see just how effective it is at killing germs, given the gorgeous fragrances.



Zoflora have such amazing fragrances sure you chat with Zoflora the Zoflora twitter feed at http://twitter.com/#!/LoveZoflora.

The hilarious and imaginative "Rango" saddles up in this DVD. The incomparable Johnny Depp voices Rango, a chameleon living as an ordinary family pet, who dreams of being a fearless hero and is challenged to become just that when he inadvertently becomes sheriff of a lawless desert town called Dirt.

I am giving away "Rango" on DVD


Just comment on any of my posts on my blog !! and comment below to tell me which one!





End 31st October 









Rollie the Cat reviews Sandy the dog from Discovery Store.

Everyone wants the a cute Andrex puppy to brighten up his or her bathroom and scuffle round the house with a super soft toilet roll at his paws. Well Sandy tops it: you can have it all and more, the absent-minded wandering, the tail wagging and the bark...with absolutely none of the clearing up! its a same Rollie isn't the same , as I am always having to clear up after him.




 Rollie is the Victor Mildew of the cat world , a down right miserable  clump of earth. We love him really his saving grace is that he is really pretty for a boy cat , I am not saying he is doing the actions to YMCA behind my shed but I have my suspicions.


Sandy Labrador is a battery operated golden Labrador who walks around, wags his tail and barks. He is incredibly soft and stroke able and wants to be your friend! He requires 2 x C batteries.


Rollie is soft and stoke able if you can get near him and does not require you to insert 2 x C batteries anywhere. if you did you might get a very nasty surprise.


What did Rollie think ?




Rollie ignores Sandy and stares.
Only Jack Black would say hello to Sandy, Rollie was being awkward.


Rollie still staring.




Friends in the end Sandy and Rollie play on the grass.
Sandy the Discovery dog £19.95 from The Discovery Store . 




( Rollie the cat was sent Sandy for purposes of review) There is no relationship developing between them as Sandy has run off with a Jack Russell from next door....

Blue Nun Review


The classic and iconic Blue Nun brand, owned by Langguth Wines in Germany, has used their passion, heritage and expertise to create a Rivaner Riesling that really delivers on taste for today’s wine lovers, still in its famous blue glass fluted bottle. Blue Nun wines have been produced since 1921 and come with the added assurance of their Sichel Superior Vinification wine making method. This involves temperature controlled fermentation, which results in a remarkable improvement in taste, aroma and smoothness of wines.


Previously a blended non-varietal designated wine, the new Rivaner Riesling has been carefully blended and offers more body and flavour. The Langguth winemakers have crafted a beautifully finished wine with perfect balance, softness, and depth of fresh fruit flavours with this fresh, crisp and fruity white wine. The new Blue Nun Rivaner Riesling is an easy drinking, contemporary wine and is at its best served lightly chilled (Alc 10.0 % Vol).
£5.99 and available to buy from most UK supermarkets including Tesco, Morrsions, Asda, Co-Op and Nisa.


A pleasant enough wine for an Indian summer evening , and a refreshing change from the expensive wines I've been drinking so at £5.99 its a far cry from the £60 bottles I have been having.

( I was sent a bottle of Blue Nun to review) and yes I did recycle the bottle !
