Advantages: Okay holiday read. Disadvantages: Predictable, characters not likeable.
Louise Bagshawe's latest novel, 'Tuesday's Child' is along the lines of her previous book - 'Monday's Child'. It is not just the title that is similar, she once again portrays the female lead as having her fair share of flaws. While in 'Monday's Child' the character had issues with her weight, this time she is a tomboy who doesn't want to grow up.
Lucy Evans shares a flat with her old buddy Ollie, whom she met travelling. While Ollie has grown up and got a "real" job as a lawyer, Lucy is desperate to cling on to her youth: playing computer games until all hours, gorging on junk food, following her favourite rock bands and backpacking around the world. Life with Ollie is cushy and Lucy is in no hurry to change it.
Then one day her perfect world falls apart. Firstly Ollie announces he is marrying his nightmare of a girlfriend ...
Advantages: Beautifully written and touching. Disadvantages: It is too short....
I recently read, and loved, a book called The Five People You Meet in Heaven, written by American author Mitch Albom. I loved this book so much that I rushed out to buy another of his literary offerings: Tuesdays with Morrie. A Old Man, A Young Man and Life's Greatest Lessons and I wasn't disappointed.

During these lost years ...
Advantages: Easy to use, fun, good value Disadvantages: Balance Games are very beneficial in my opinion

- The Balance Board -
This is a well-made piece of kit; it?s fairly lightweight but very sturdy. It?s also incredibly simple in design and use. There?s a large power button on the rear that comes on only when the board makes contact with your wii fit console. Other than that it?s all in the software. All you have to do is stand on it and let it show you the way to fighting the bulge.
- The Software -
The initial set-up will calibrate your board and take your weight as well as height. With this information it gives you your BMI (Body Mass Index) and tells you where you currently stand in the fat stakes thanks to a simple scale. Amusingly it pulls in your Mii avatar and if you?ve overweight then you?ll start off a little podgy! It will also throw in some simple balance tests to ascertain your Wii fit age, the mark of where your body ...
