Chicago Town Xfactor Pizza and chances to win

Why oh why do people vote for Frankie? Honestly! Does he have some hidden charm that I am immune to? And Kitty, oh I admit she is slightly more likeable now she’s stopped jumping in swimming pools and wrapping her limbs around unsuspecting piano players but she is so nasal!

Can anyone tell me what is going on with the judges? Kelly was “ill” last week, was she ill or was she hiding out after a battle of words with Tulisa?

Xfactor has had more ups and downs this year than the worlds scariest rollercoaster but thankfully one thing has remained constant for us on our Saturday night treat nights… the pizza!

We were asked to review the Chicago Town Limited Edition X Factor – and we don’t say no to pizza, ever. When this arrived I did wonder if it would be too spicy for the 5yr old as it is topped with X-tra large pepperoni, mini pepperoni, red onion, spicy beef and mozzarella. He cleared his plate so I’m guessing not!

This pizza has a real dough base and is stuffed crust, it tastes as if it came from a takeaway shop, despite being frozen oven pizza, but without that oily taste I always find you get with delivered pizza.

Ready for the oven, this pizza comes with an oven ready tray so no scraping stuck on pizza off the baking tray, it literally just slides onto your plate.

Each pack has a free music download code and a chance to win show tickets and a share of £2.5m of prizes, from free pizza to £10,000 in cash (which would buy a lot of pizza). You can find out more about all of this on the Chicago Town Xfactor website.

This is a great value pizza, Daddy had a plateful and Kieran and I both managed a good sized slice each.

*We received a voucher for this pizza (RRP £3.78) and this is a sponsored post. That aside, our pizza findings our our own. We consider ourselves pizza-eating experts due to our large amount of practice over the years and as such can honestly say this is one delicious pizza that we would, and will, buy again.

Autumn and Winter in Comfortable Style!

When I think of autumn and winter I think of crisp leaves, warm gloves, hearty stews and fun. Wellies aren’t usually the first things that come to mind but British weather being what it is, they are essentials.

I hate wellies, they are clumpy, waxy, shapeless and for whatever reason I only ever seem to find green farmer wellies or garish ones. It’s been a bit of a dilemna to be honest. Until now. The lovelies from Charlotte and Co. have sent me some mock croc wellies to try out, and I am in love!

[slideshow id=5] Out with the old and nasty and in with the comfy yet uber sexy mock crocs! Being in a rural-ish North Yorks location I can spend whole weeks living in wellies so these are quite the find. Great for under jeans or over and retailing at £39.00 for a pair they are a winter wardrobe must.

Browsing through the Charlotte and Co website you can find a whole host of gorgeous items for outdoor and indoor. These beautiful cotton-flannel PJ’s have hit my Christmas list (Are you reading this Roy?). I was really pleased to find that these are available up to size 18 (being short with a large bum means sites that cater for smaller sizes only are no good whatsoever).

Please take a minute to have a nosy at the website, be it for yourself or as a gift for someone else, especially on the run up to Christmas. You will definitely find something suitably gorgeous. You can find the lovelies from Charlotte and Co on both Facebook and Twitter so make sure you pop and say hello and keep up to date with news and offers.

*I was sent a pair of Mock Croc Wellies to try and review. Please note I am keeping these, I am not letting them out of my sight. My sister was eyeing them up last night but she can’t borrow them. They are mine. Charlotte and Co have had no editorial input on this write-up which is based purely on my own experiences / opinions.
