Breaking In....

Breaking in to Breaking Bad and Netflix !

Yes I am finally able to watch this highly acclaimed series.I must say that I had not heard of it until the final season and everyone in the social media world were talking about the finale.It obviously was shown on a channel that we do not have as I am sure I would have stumbled across it at some point.So it left me thinking where could I watch this ? Last week I saw an advert for a free months trial to Netflix.We had previously ignored any pay to view services of this nature and it's suck you in deals but on this occasion I checked all the small print and decided to go ahead with it.You have to give billing information upfront through whichever method you prefer from debit card to Paypal.You are not charged until the first paying month is due and you are given a date to cancel by on each month should you no longer want to watch.The service is £5.99 for online viewing and is available on a number of devises from computer to PS3.You are able to watch unlimited films and TV shows from a vast collection of titles dating from modern to decades before.I must admit it feels good having so much available at the click of a button.But it doesn't help you much in the way of not being a couch potato though lol ! We may keep the service for a few months and see how we go as compared to box sets of the shows or watching films at the cinema you can't go wrong with the price.If we kept it for 2 paying months it would be £11.98 divide that by the 3 months that we would have been watching and you get roughly £4 a month and £1 a week.So we don't have much to lose really.

Onto more about Breaking Bad......I love it so far and am not breaking myself in gently as I watch around 2 episodes a day and am engrossed from beginning until end.Yes it can be predictable and maddening in parts.But it has that certain something.The characters are complex,well acted and the show has a great mix of Dark and humour.With the nature of the show it does contain violence and some gore but not too much in my opinion compared to some shows or films.It's just different ! Let me watch the whole 5 seasons and I will get back to you with my full critic review !

Wishing....

As I write this I am doing one of the things I am most addicted to at the moment.....painting my nails.Yes I have gone back to a love I had many years ago of collecting nail polish.I of course as you do got rid of all of my collection more or less and decided I wasn't bothered anymore.Now a few years on I am bothered again lol !!!! So the collecting has started once more but where does it stop ? I watch many a youtube video on peoples marvellous collections of at least upwards of 300 bottles and oooh and aaahhhh at the prettiness of it all.I started to give them a run for there money by buying every polish recently that I NEED to have.I have filled a drawer with roughly 85 bottles of coloured polish and various top coats,stickers etc...I have also swatched them all and came up with a great way to store my swatches and see all that I have easily.(I have a video on this on my youtube channel if you are interested) I have all the bottles labelled on the tops so I can get to them easily and in colour groupings too.I was all set to move them into a larger drawer in the dresser and to carry on expanding but I thought NO STOP.I have more than I need (Even though I don't want to admit it really) Also for those of you who have watched my organising and living in small spaces videos you will know that we live in a relatively small house so drawer space is at a premium.And another thing that you probably wouldn't think of is that they weigh a bloomin ton too.When I took the drawer full of them out I was surprised just how much.If I was to carry on the way I was going the poor dresser would have collapsed what with our other things in it too! Seriously though there has to come a point to stop and I think I have hit mine.It may be at a low number to some but to me it's just about right as I love my little collection just the way it is.I now get to the point of this post which is wishing. Stopping collecting allows me to start a wish list.....yay ! Now these polishes can be various prices from £1 and upwards as it's not about the price.The idea is that I have to finish a polish,give one away as I will never wear it or one has to have dried up and be thrown away to allow me to have a polish I want from the wish list.This way my polish gets loved and used up more.

The list is as of January 2014 : Barry M-Racing Green
                                                  Models Own-Indian Ocean
                                                  Opi-Holiday Glow
                                                  Essie-Borrowed and Blue
                                                  Sinful Colours-Ruby Ruby

There however is a twist to the list ! Some of these polishes that I see in videos or blogs etc.... and find themselves on the list might be difficult to get hold of and could be a challenge to get,especially as I don't pay full price for higher end polishes.So they may forever be a dream............

I'm back & ready to natter once more !

Yes I am going to try once more to stick to this Blogging malarkey. I have tried and failed on many an occasion but I hate to be beat........ so here I am ! If you are reading this Thank you for being here and I hope to have you reading along with my little "Nattering" sessions for many more days to come. This Blog will be an extension to my YouTube channel so will include similar subjects but lots of extras that won't make it into videos or I want to talk about straight away.Oh and boy can I talk so expect some lengthy posts lol !  You can expect all sorts on things such as Nail Polish to Organising. Hopefully something for everyone.So put your feet up have a cuppa and lets have a Natter !
