Two Great Duets (2009-10-29)

I’m not a big fan of two different solo artists singing in the same song (duets) nor the Italian singer Laura Pausini, but funny enough two of my favourite Italian songs are duets with Laura Pausini ! So ahead of an upcoming post on Italy and as its the weekend, here are two songs for [...]

It Has To Be ! (2009-10-27)

This is a new TV commercial for Heinz being shown in the UK at the moment. Not only is it funny and very true, it also really reminds me of England. Enjoy !
By the way for those who watch British TV,the voice over sounds like Del Boy :)

Burger Review : Nino’s (2009-10-26)

Whenever I go to Nino’s I spend ages to deciding what to eat. The menu is pretty big but nothing really seems to catch my eye. The food is definitely healthier than a lot of restuarants, but I just struggle in finding something that I think I will enjoy. The pasta dishes are OK, but [...]

I Think I’ve Found The Right Smartphone ! (2009-10-23)

It’s not revolutionary, its not cutting edge, but I do think I have finally found the right smartphone for me. I’m going to jump on the Blackberry bandwagon and go for the upcoming Blackberry Bold 2 (or Blackberry 9700 as its officially known).
The phone is an improvement on what is the best Blackberry out there [...]

Top 5 Movie Star Impressions (2009-10-19)

Time for another top 5 list !
I’m always impressed when someone can pull off a good impersonation of a famous person. Usually the targets are politicians, which most of us have seen, but you rarely see good impressions of movie stars. OK we’ve seen loads of Clint Eastwood, Arnold and Stallone impressions - those are [...]

Two New Smartphones (2009-10-18)

As some of you may already know I’ve been looking to make the switch to a Smartphone but can’t really decide which one. I’ve had a look at the I-phone which I think is not worth the money and recently I’ve been leaning towards the Blackberry, but waiting for a new model to come out. Well [...]

FYNA (2009-10-15)

If you work in Kuwait there is a big chance you have either been sent an email with “FYNA” or at least been copied in the email with it mentioned. FYNA is a phenomenon which, as far I know, only happens in companies in Kuwait. It is usually sent by a supervisor to the people who report [...]

Travel Review : Beirut (2009-10-13)

 Just got back from visiting Beirut with my friends - this goes a long way to explain the lack of blog activity by the way:) . It was my first ever trip to Lebanon so I was really curious to see what the place is like, especially as I have heard so much about it.
Here is [...]

Hip Hop Songs Like You’ve Never Heard Them Before (2009-10-7)

While I was over Italy I heard a song on the radio which sounded very familiar, but was completely different from the original. It was an acoustic version of the 50Cent/Justin Timberlake song Ayo Technology ! I thought the original version was OK when it was released but this remake sounds amazing. After a bit [...]

Movie Review : Inglourious Basterds (2009-10-6)

Last night I went to see Inglorious Basterds, the latest movie by Quinton Tarantino who also made Pulp Fiction and the Kill Bill movies. I am a big fan of Tarantino, so was pleased that the movie was still showing when I got back from my travels. Here’s the run down:
 Plot
 This is so difficult to [...]
