Some new bits and a review

Hi all,

Well I thought it might be a good time to look at the blog and see what I could do to improve it, I have decided to include a Quote of the Blog for each post! today I have "Do what you do because you should, not just because you can".

And I am going to run another competition for people so just check out the rafflecopter widget below and enter I have added a remembrance day entry option as it closes on 11th November and I want to show some support.

Comment below with your favourite joke and you will get extra entries as I thought it would be good to see who can come up with a great joke, my favourite is:

I went on a date with a model the other day, well I say a date, it was just dinner and a movie.
Then the plane landed.

I thought I would also start commenting on my recent service I have received at various shops, today I am going to talk about Amazon as that is who I have decided to use for the competition.

Amazon review: I have been using Amazon for a few years now and have some really good experiences and a few not quite so good, first the good points, Price, simply put they are cheap compared to most other sites and the high street, so I often look in the high street then check on my phone to see how much Amazon can sell it to me, and almost always end up buying from Amazon instead! Choice, again Amazon are great for this, the selection of items you can get there now is amazing, they seem to sell pretty much everything certainly not just books and DVD's any more.  Now for the so-so points, Delivery, is 3-5 days on average, which is not bad but they used to be better, and they now seem to be slower just to sell you paid for delivery options and Amazon Prime is just too expensive to justify.
Finally the Bad points, well as with all on-line sales, it's very easy to not really understand what you are going to get, pictures can be very deceptive, I have purchase items in the past such as ornaments and when they have arrived that are much smaller than expected, now in fairness Amazon did include the size in the description and I did not look, but it is an issue with on-line purchasing. Maybe they should include a photo that compares items size in relation to a fixed size item.

Overall I would give Amazon 8.5 out of 10 as price and range are great points to be good on.

OK now for the comp.
