Parks Candles' Sandalwood and Ylang Ylang Aromatherapy

I adore these candles, they smell divine. It's a pity Parks Candles' packaging is so shit - it makes the candles look cheap, which at about £18 is not reflective. Get a good design agency, sort out your website and pitch yourselves against Jo Malone!

Truly charming jewellery by truly charming designer and reiki master Caryl Haxworth, http://www.charmsoflight.com/ offers some amazingly good value gemstone jewellery and stones. I've just bought a chakra bracelet, opalite guardian angel and best of all, Carly made for me some rose quartz drop earrings for my wedding which received great compliments. Such lovely presents too.

Contemplating Webber's drive through penalty... Belgian Grand Prix 2009
Originally uploaded by Amanda Longhurst

Didn't spoil a fabulous weekend at the Belgian Grand Prix. What an amazing track and Spa Francorchamps is lovely. Bloody chilly camping though! We were at The Elephant camp site. Really nice three small fields, but only four loos and showers for whole campsite.... Clean though. Expensive, but it would be for 30 mins walking distance to the track!

Vodafone Cockpit Karaoke Competition To Win Tix for Monza

Pretty nifty idea by Vodafone Germany - they sent events people round the campsite we stayed at for the F1 Belgian Grand Prix, to video us impersonating a racing car. They uploaded them to the contest site on youtube and, I can't work out whether most views wins or most voted for (or how to vote) but anyway the winner gets VIP tix to the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. Check me out. How embarrassing, but worth a shot, eh.

Project Kittens and Moonbeams

Right, enough of all the Dilbert-like process monkeys who micro-manage and drive me bonkers.

Project Kittens and Moonbeams for focus.

Hugo Boss email campaign

Really like the Hugo Boss email I got today. A rather lovely looking Lewis Hamilton promoting the formal suit range, plus a change to win a trip to the Singapore Grand Prix staying at the Mandarin Oriental. Now that's what I call good targeting....

Goodness me - an online advert that stopped me in my tracks!

Very impressed by this great online advert by Volkswagen South Africa. A snail pulling a poster trailer across the screen. Actually clicked through...

Love Love Love these Brian Atwood shoes

Problem is: a) they cost £405 at matchesfashion b)I'd never get the chance to wear them. I'd scare the locals in my village.
