Advantages: Great writing and photograph, let's you dream! Disadvantages: None!
Top Gear, currently the UKs most popular car magazine, is for people who know about cars and want to appear knowledgable. Evo is the magazine that the true petrolheads read.
It combines mouthwatering photography with excellent writing that really give you a feel for what the car is like to drive. Of particular note, Evo give very few review of 'normal' cars, instead they focus almost solely on supercars. This is great, as, let's face, we don't really want to read about the new Toyota Aygo - we really want to read about the Ferrari F430 Scuderia.
One of my favourite sections is called the 'long termers'. With this section, Evo is given a car by a manufacturer (or, with some of the more exotic metal, contributors write the article about their own cars) for a period of 6 months to a year. It lets one know what the car is like to own ...

Frenchman's Creek was published in 1941, written at a low time in Du Mauriers life as her husband, Tommy, was away at war and her children and nanny were all ill - so it was ...
Advantages: Fantastic water cannons, lots of ways to get wet, the water coaster, hot tubs, great waterslides.. Disadvantages: ...And would love there to be more!
The Cariba Creek Waterpark is the waterpark at Alton Towers. It is built into the Alton Towers Splash Landings hotel. It has many indoor water cannons, hot tubs, waterslides and even a water coaster! This is my experience.
My parents and I were staying at the Alton Towers hotel, (we have the Merlin Pass so we decided it was worth going to Alton Towers.) we stayed there for two nights and on the second day we decided to go to the Cariba Creek Waterpark.
When we walked through the Alton Towers hotel on the reception floor, we passed through some rooms than we noticed the carpet changed...so we knew that we WERE in the Splash Landings hotel.
We brought our tickets, but because we were staying at the hotel, we got a discount, if you stay at the main hotel you get a discount (like us,) but if you stay at the Splash Landings hotel, it ...
