About this Member

Thought I'd write a bit about how this site works for me, or how I work for this site...

I generally have a quick look at the new reviews most days, altho I don't usually get chance to read and rate that many. I also try and return most rates on my reviews but sometimes don't actually get round to it...so sorry if I miss returning your rate. I also quite regularly go through my COF to read and rate any new reviews.

I do nominate but never actually say in the comments because aren't nominations meant to remain anonymous? And also I don't want to get people's hopes up because I know I have been nominated and then not receive a crown, it's very disapppointing!

I do read and rate as many as I can and I think I do my fair share, but if you read my 'about me' below then you will know that I am a busy mum with not a lot of spare time to sit on the computer.

******

I'm a fulltime housewife and mother to two beautiful little girls (2 3/4 and 1 year). I chose to become a fulltime Mum so I could always be there for my children, I never saw the point in having kids and then letting someone else look after them. They constantly keep me on my toes and are forever changing and learning new things, there is never a dull moment.

The reason I started writing reviews on Dooyoo was because my husband and I purchase quite a lot of stuff online (such as baby items and electrical stuff), and we always found people's reviews really really valuable, and always read many reviews before committing to buy to ensure we weren't wasting our precious cash!

So now I am at home with itchy fingers I chose to return the favour and start reviewing some of the stuff we have used or purchased. You will notice that most of my reviews are based around baby items, such as toys, books and feeding equipment, but that is my world at the moment.
