Junior: The intellectual parenting magazine

Advantages: Lots of articles, full of information, gorgeous photography
Disadvantages: Expensive

I have always seen this magazine in WH Smith whenever I go to pick up the other parenting magazines I buy every month, but to be honest I have never paid that much attention to it. I saw an advert on a website I belong to which said to ring a number and you get a free issue of Junior and then a further 3 issues for just £1. I couldn't resist and then the next month, my first ever issue of Junior dropped onto my doormat. The first thing I noticed was the quality of the magazine itself. The cover is lovely and glossy, and all of the pages inside are very thick and have that expensive look to them, you can tell this is a magazine aimed more towards the upper class reader (I'm not being a snob, just my opinion!). The cover has the work JUNIOR across the top in bright colours (This varies according to the colour scheme of the issue ...

Little Tikes Junior Activity Gym

Advantages: sturdy, strong, robust, attractive, compact
Disadvantages: difficult to assemble, not as much fun as it could be

As we unpacked the activity gym it looked relatively simple to assemble, as it was really just a case of slotting the panels together but don?t be fooled! It was not at all easy to assemble although the only consolation is that if it was that difficult to put together its going to be near impossible for it to fall apart! The brightly ...

Hudson Hotel, New York

Advantages: Great bars, good standard of customer care
Disadvantages: Quite expensive

My husband and I stayed a the Hudson during September 2008, on my first trip to the states. We were away for 2 weeks, of which 5 nights were spent at the Hudson. This meant that we could compare this hotel to several others in the US, including one other in New York. Generally, the Hudson came out of this very well! We booked the Hudson online, through hotels.com, a procedure which was nice and simple and allowed us to look at several different hotels before making our choice. We were initially attracted to the Hudson because of it's easily accessible location and because the pictures we found on the internet made it look unlike anywhere we had stayed before! The hotel is extremely image conscious, the website gave lots of information about the designer (Philippe Starck), loads of pictures and presented the hotel as a "cool ...
