Advantages: Fantastic radio/alarm at a modest price Disadvantages: None
Just before Christmas my trusty but rather elderly portable radio gave up the ghost. I needed another one. But this was just before Christmas and my mind was on other things. Like Christmas shopping!
Whilst wandering round ASDA in Telford for a number of Christmas presents my wife drew my attention to a small but very attractive silver-coloured radio.
It boasted digital tuning (it is not a DAB radio, however) and three wave bands. One AM and 2 FM. It also has a built-in alarm clock function and a dial light of a rather nice amber/orange colour.
I was amazed at the price. £6.95? Surely it can't be any good for that price? It was actually remarkably good!
Controls are push button on the front and very well laid out, save for the slider switch for the two FM bands and the rotary tuning knob on the side.
The AM band covers ...
Advantages: They really like to take your money and then not deliver Disadvantages: Unprofessional, overpriced, late and don't take your thoughts into consideration
We used Allied Pickford to move from NZ to Canada. This is our 3rd international move, and we had never considered using Allied Pickfords in the past. 1st of all our sea container mysteriously ended up in Singapore. It showed up over 4 weeks late. We were told our sea can would be taken from our residence in NZ and delived to our residence in Canada. The office in Vancouver decided for us that they weren't going to honour that. Half way through the move, they decided to unload or belongings in Vancouver and reshuffle them into a moving van. Which just exposes our furniture to more scratches and nicks. We found the person handling our move in both NZ and Vancovuer to be very inconsiderate and basically lied to us. We would recommend anyone other than Allied Pickford. They are very unprofessional. ...
Advantages: educational, nice friend for little girl Disadvantages: she goes on and on and on.....
I've seen Amazing Ally advertised a lot, but her RRP is £70. I think this is extortionate for a doll so was pleased to find her for just £25 on one of Tv's selling channels. Since I bought her, I've found her in several toyshops for £24.99.
Amazing Ally is an inter-active doll, designed to be the childs best friend. You have to program in your childs birthday, favourite colour, animal, holiday as well as the current time and date. This information is stored in the doll unless you switch her off or her batteries run out. She'll count down to your childs birthday, telling them they must be very excited from about three months before the date.
When Ally's batteries are running down, she'll ask you to change them and specify which ones have run out. She takes 3 AA batteries and 3 AAA batteries. They do last a long time though ...
