Advantages: Smooth and lavish bubbles, skin softening, subtle scent. Disadvantages: You need a fair bit to get the best bubbles.
I have done really well recently and resisted impulse buying bath products until my bathroom was nearly empty. I actually get a rather odd sense of achievement when I finish a bottle of shower gel or bath cream! So I have now raided the bargains of the high street and stocked up again.
Price & Packaging
Imperial Leather has just released two limited edition bath creams for the autumn and winter months. At £1 for a 500ml bottle it?s hard not to grab and go when you see these on the shelf! The Satin bottle is a smooth curved shape, making it easy to grip in a steamy room. The creamy pearlescent shower cream can be seen through the clear bottle and it matches the colour of the pull off lid exactly. With what looks like a soft satin sheet on the front of the bottle, you can?t help but imagine a slightly indulgent bath ...
Advantages: Variety! Beaches, food, people - Greece! Disadvantages: Very hot. Remembering HOW to deal with loo paper
, but the platform bed was carved into a cave! This meant the room stayed cool, with the windows open and the lovely Mykonos breeze, too.
It was very hot - the mornings started at 32C or 82F - according to the temperature reading on my newest mobile/cellphone! However, this inspired me to get up fairly early and head for the beach cafe, where there was lovely greek yoghurt with organic strawberries, pain au chocolat, orange juice etc, included in the price of the room. And the view was of the sea and sand, before all the sunbathers arrived.
Each morning the staff would meticulously sweep everything up from the night before, and it was very clean and tidy and fresh each day.
I stayed at Paradise Camping but didnt camp! I felt quite privileged to be able to return to my comfy bed with cool clean sheets every night, instead. My ...

Advantages: "We joined the navy to see the world?." Disadvantages: "And what did we see? We saw the sea." (Irving Berlin)
?I must go down to the seas again,
To the lonely sea and the sky.? (John Masefield)
Never fear; I?m not about to start waxing lyrical about the sea. I?m more in the Irving Berlin camp than in the Masefield. I quote the lines above to illustrate the fact that even the most feverish of fanatics for the sea has to admit that maritime views are limited, consisting as they do of just two lonely elements: water and sky. And it?s stretching a point to include the sky, which can equally be seen above land as above sea. So, essentially, we?re talking about water.
Water, it might be argued, is not entirely monotonous to look at. The sea has moods, which it expresses in the colour of its complexion. Sometimes, it can be a tranquil turquoise, sometimes an inscrutable indigo, sometimes a grudging greeny-grey. Occasionally, it rears ...

Manufacturer's product description
Below the windmills, beyond the small beach adjacent to Little Venice, the paralia ends in a rocky headland facing the open sea. This is the remarkable location of one of Hora's most charming restaurants. Set apart from the clamor of the town, it's one of the quietest spots in the area. On a still summer night just after sunset, the atmosphere is all you could hope for on a Greek island. At the front of the restaurant, the kitchen activity is on view along with the day's catch sizzling on the grill. You can make a modest meal on mezedes here, or let it rip with grilled bon filet. A couple of readers have recently mentioned "nonchalant" and "slow" service; let us know what you think.
