The end of the year sparks a time to reflect on what we’re thankful for and look ahead and make changes in our lives that will result in better living and a more positive life. In all honesty, I reckon if these practices aren’t already in place, then the start of a new year probably won’t help to implement them.

The end of 2012 is nigh and all in all I’d say it’s been a pretty top year at eSpares. I felt like compiling my favourite how to videos in the eSpares catalogue thus far for no other reason than I want to.
There is no method behind the madness here. Simply put, I like these videos best and equally for different reasons.

Whilst everyone has been worried about finding the right presents for loved ones or shedding a few extra lbs before the holidays I’ve been somewhat more pre-occupied with how I’m going to celebrate when the end of the world doesn’t happen.
Nibiru a Sumerian discovered planet is travelling full speed ahead on a collision course towards the earth and due to strike December 21, 2012. It was also due to strike back in May of 2003 but when nothing happened the date got pushed forward. In fact, that’s perhaps just decided my celebratory event; ‘Guess the next end of world date’ cocktail party. Dress to impress.

It’s almost time when Santa’s sleigh will be flying miles high in the sky filled to the brim with toys for all the good little girls and boys. Or something like that.
“A Child’s Christmas in Wales” by Dylan Thomas is without a doubt my favourite Christmas past time. It’s an absolutely brilliant short story about, well a child’s Christmas in Wales as a matter of fact. Was able to find a short excerpt below:

So Christmas is now over for another year and we’ve eaten as much as our bodies can take, it’s time to cut the carbs and begin our healthy eating pledges!

A lot of us work hard ahead of the holidays (and in general) to get into good shape, only for it to be undone by over eating and drinking come Christmas. Well, I think it’s time to forget the ‘I’ll sort it in the New Year’ resolution shenanigans and instead continue with a healthy regime, over (gasp) Christmas.

Energy prices are set to rise and now, more than ever, it’s important to do what you can to reduce your consumption. There is no reason not to adopt behaviours and practices that are more energy efficient and that will help to reduce your carbon footprint. And hey, if you don’t give a toss about the effect you’re having on the environment then at least do it to save the dosh.

A lot of time on your hands? Want to start thinking outside the box? Good for you! A few ideas to help get you started and no, I’m not about to suggest random appliances you can start fixing or ‘fun’ ways for you to clean the house. No, that would be weird.

With the cooler months en route to us full steam ahead there will be lots of time to spend in the great indoors. A brilliant way to kill time cooped up inside is cooking delicious food and entertaining your mates. Decide what you want to eat, decide what you want drink then ask yourself: ‘Will I enjoy this food and drink as much if I share it with others?’ If the answer is ‘no’ then scrap the entertaining bit and just get stuck in yourself.
