Somewhere in Time

Average Rating: 4.5 / 5 (52 Reviews)

Amazon.co.uk Review
It’s silly, it’s superficial, it’s so desperately earnest about its tale of time-spanning love that you almost wish for a cheap flatulence gag just to break the solemn mood. But there is something so unabashedly gushy and entertaining about Somewhere in Time that you can’t begrudge its enduring popularity. The film has become a staple of romantic-movie lovers since its release in 1980, and endless showings on cable TV have turned it into a dubious classic of sorts–a three-hanky weepy that anyone can enjoy as a guilty pleasure or a beloved favourite, with no apologies necessary. In his first film after the star-making success of Superman, Christopher Reeve stars as a contemporary playwright who visits a posh hotel and sees the portrait of an actress (Jane Seymour) who had performed there in 1912. He becomes obsessed with this beautiful woman and learns all he can about her, and then discovers a method of hypnotically transporting himself backward in time to meet her. “Is it … you?” she says upon seeing the lovestruck playwright, and it’s clearly a mutual attraction. But even the slightest reminder of the playwright’s modern time can jar him from his seemingly real existence in the past, so his wonderful love affair is constantly just a step from being stolen away. Based on Richard Matheson’s novel Bid Time Return, this flaky film may strain one’s tolerance for plot holes and corny romance, but it’s hard to deny its lasting appeal–and let’s face it, guys, it’ll make wives and girlfriends swoon if they are in a tearjerker mood. –Jeff Shannon

Touch Of Ginger Urban Survival Range Ski Bag Essentials Kit

Product Description
If you think that carving a ridge is something you remember from woodwork class, this fabulously thoughtful collection of accessories is probably not for you. If, however, you cut a dash on and off the piste and like nothing more than the high-speed swoosh of compacted snow beneath you, then, yes, come on down. Or should that be come on up and down. There’s nothing shoddier than going on the piste unprepared, as anyone in Nottingham on a Friday night will tell you. And it’s even worse in Val d’Isere, where a lack of preparation will have every nationality on God’s earth turning their noses up at your English naivety. Because, in the world of the serious gadgeteer, one needs to fully prepared for every eventuality and correctly tooled-up for every job. Acquire the rather handy Ski Bag Kit and tooled up for an alpine adventure you most certainly will be. Containing a hand warmer, lip balm, a ski pass holder, some really clever sun cream wipe, a slab of dextrose (that’s d-glucose for the particular among you), some plasters and a pack of tissues, these clever nordic johnnies have simply thought of everything. So now you can be slick on the slopes. And equally slick by the time you get out of hospital.

Fun Fly Stick

• Includes 5 foil shapes! / Approx size: 31.5 cm x 5.5 cm x 2.5 cm
• Requires 2 x AA batteries (not included) / Instruction book included

Product Description
The eyes have it – and at least in the case of this fabulous optical illusion, they may well be telling your brain something it does not want to believe – namely that a shiny shape appears to be levitating in mid air. Cripes. You’ll have onlookers genuinely astonished and amazed by it apparent magic. Only you will know the truth – the Fun Fly Stick has a clever miniature Van de Graaff Generator hidden inside it. But never fear, the Fun Fly Stick doesn’t have an electrical shock-type discharge and doesn’t produce sparks, so it’s safe (and more importantly won’t make your hair stand on end). Using the power of static charge to levitate and control foil shapes and other lightweight items, it really can make things fly. Special foil flying shapes such as butterflies, flowers, orbs and spheres are included and these can be guided through the air by the magic of the Fun Fly Stick. Now if you will excuse us, we have work to do. Anything said about us having a short attention span is most certainly not – oooooh… shiny…
