Occasionally, like a lot of hubbies, I am pressed into shopping. I don't like it, but I am generally compliant and go along with the trip to keep the peace and provided only that I get a decent trade off in return. Whenever we go to our nearest town, my wife likes to go to Dunelm where they have a lot of nice things albeit at hefty prices. She seems to spend an eternity in various departments and is forever asking me what I think of whatever it is she is considering buying. More often or not I couldn't care less. After all, I have the Grumpy Old Man stereotype to live up to. On a particular occasion last summer when the time for the cricket was ...  Read the complete review

When it comes to fragrance in my home it is a very important thing for me. Both me and my flatmate smoke however I own a gorgeous little hamster called Colin and I'm really wary of using air freshener or burning candles or incense sticks that could make him cough and I did once without thinking and vowed never again would I do that.

The reed diffuser comes in a 45ml bottle for £4.99 (currently on sale for ...  Read the complete review

I've been using a few Reed Diffusers over the last few years. I first tried a Yankee candle 1 when I got it for a birthday present one year, and after then I have had a couple of them over the years and in different rooms. I always have 1 in each of my Bathrooms - just because. I often buy scented Candles from Dunelm but had never seen the Diffusers for sale but I spotted this 1 about 3 months ago. Not sure if this is available in any other scents but Soft linen is a favourite scent of mine. This cost me £2.99, which was a bit cheaper than I would have spent on one of these. Considering that I have spent up to £14.99 when i've bought 1 of these from ...  Read the complete review
