Graze.com and the Graze Box
I’ve been trying out Graze.com and their Graze Box recently, the Graze Box is a recycled cardboard box, designed to fit through your letterbox.
The box is specifically designed to fit through your letterbox so that the postman can just pop it through without you having to be in to take delivery, inside are four heat sealed plastic containers full of delicious goodies.

PURE Sensia, PURE Chronos iDock, PURE Lounge iPhone App
It was time to replace my internet radio and I had always had my eye on the PURE Sensia.
The radio is shaped pretty much like a rugby ball, it has some weight and sits on a plastic base although it has a fitting to allow it to sit atop a tripod or some other camera style base if needs be. It has a large colour touchscreen, a touch sensitive on/off button on top and two side firing speakers.
PURE has been around for some time now, I remember my first foray into the world of digital radio was with a PURE box for my hi-fi, things have moved on since then and PURE often come up with some truly innovative and stylish products.
The radio itself will receive DAB (Digital radio broadcasts) and DAB+ (which links to pictures and ads over the internet), Standard FM and internet radio via the PURE Lounge service.
The radio is very easy to setup, it connects to your home network via Wi-Fi although an ethernet adaptor is now available if a wired connection is preferred. Then you get a number from the PURE Lounge and pop that into the radio and it syncs with your PURE Lounge account. I also have a PURE Chronon iDock in the bedroom and pop my iPhone into the dock and use the PURE Lounge software for iPhone to listen to internet radio on that device. As both sync with the same PURE Lounge account I have only had to setup and manage my internet radio station favourites and custom stations in one place, it syncs to both or any number of PURE devices.

REVIEW: Philips RQ-1180 Shaver
I have recently received the Philips RQ-1180 Shaver as a gift and thought I would write a little about it.
Now I don’t always use an electric razor, sometimes I live to wet shave, I just tend to find I cannot wet shave all the time as it irritates my skin. I did used to use another brand of shaver and that also used to irritate my skin. This is my second Philips electric shaver, the last one has lasted for a good few years but still works ok, althought the battery is failing a bit, hence why I wanted a new one.
