Montecasino Christmas Village

Treat yourself at Montecasino this Christmas (3)(1)

I spent my first white Christmas in Germany back in 1995, and it was truly magical. My first snow experience was at midnight in the grounds of a castle in Detmold, Germany. I also loved the Christmas markets in the town square and the smell of all those yuletide goodies to eat and drink.

VÖOST is Vital

VOOST_RETAIL&PHARMACY_PRES_WS_V2.pptxThe brand and marketing team at Vital have asked me to test a new range of food/health supplements called VÖOST. I am super excited to enjoy the benefits of extra energy and that spring in my step, which as has been lacking lately, via this new funky range of vitamins and minerals.

The 5 product range, which is made in Germany, consists of Vitamin C, Vitamin B Complex, Calcium & Vitamin D, Magnesium and a Multi-Vitamin.

Over the next month or two, I will be “VÖOSTING” my way into the festive season, so check out my review post soon.

As their pay off line says, good health is Vital. So true!

I first met Marc Lottering back in 2009 when I was a Producer for the SABC1 show Spirit Sundae, and I can truly say that he is as down to earth in real life as he is on stage.

Mr Lottering never disappoints in the humour department, you’ll laugh so much, you’ll need tissues for the tears and smudged mascara!

Remember Movember for Men’s Health

It’s that time of the year again, when men grow moustaches and most of the time, that is about all that happens. Most of the people I’ve asked don’t really know what Movember is all about and the aim of growing that mo.

On the official Movember website, it states that “Movember is about bringing back the moustache (Mo), having fun and doing good to change the face of men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and testicular cancer. Mo Bros take action by changing their appearance through the growth of a new moustache for the 30 days of Movember, and in doing so become walking, talking billboards for men’s health. Mo Sistas sign up and commit to supporting the men in their lives while helping to promote men’s health at home, in the workplace and within their community.”
