Those useless sparkly baubles get everywhere:
Apparently there was a glitz in the program.Those things do happen.
Turns out it was a glitz in the after market starter gizmo.
A bit of a bother setting up as laptop would not recognise it and there seems to be a glitz in the cd-rom provided
I’ve just been informed that there may have been a glitz in the online ticket purchases where is was requiring PayPal but not credit cards.
Darrin has an automatic garage door opener installed, but a glitz in the wiring causes the door to open whenever an airplane flies over!

It goes both ways:
Subsidy-published book: “[the Royal visit] had a trade component to all the glitch and glamour that very few people noticedâ€
Travel site: “We were intrigued by your web ad, chairs, rocks and fishing rod after so much glitch and glamour.â€
Music blog: “Smooth out the wrinkles with the glitch and glamour that was honoured in 2011â€
