Advantages: Great Graphics Disadvantages: No tournament mode.
a simulation, and you can't play multi game matches like you can in virtually every other pool game.
So why is it called Cool pool, and why haven't I heard of it? Well the reason it's 'Cool pool' is twofold, Firstly because as well as standard 8 ballpool, there's some really cool variations featuring exploding balls, colour changing balls, supersonic speeding balls, and cash jumping out of pockets (admittedly it's in Cents not pence but you get the idea). Secondly, it's a really cool came in it's own right. It's so absurdly easy to pick up and play it's unbelievable. And if it's such a fantastic game why hasn't anyone heard of it? Well the simple fact of the matter is that Sierra who published the game didn't market it properly. In the states it was released as part of Sierra's 'Family Fun' range which included 'Train Town' and 'RC Racing ...

Advantages: efective little cleaner Disadvantages: Noisy
I have a small home so when I needed a new vacuum cleaner I chose the Dyson DC24 which is a smaller version of the standard model. It cost £189.99. I was expecting almost a child sized vacuum cleaner but there is not really much difference at all.
It was so simple to put together, there are peel off stickers on the unit to explain things as you go. It only took me 5 minutes to have it assembled. The ball makes vacuuming effortless, and the head of the vacuum is narrow so its easy to get under the sofa, low tables, etc.

The power cable is short and not retractable which can look a bit untidy if it is ...
Advantages: Can be used inside or out Disadvantages: Need to buy extra balls to make it really good fun
and is 33" x 38". It also comes with a couple of tent pegs incase you are using it outside.
To take it down again. Remove the balls and put them back into the box, remove the metal poles. Hold the sides of the frame, fold them so that you are left with one complete panel which contains all the sides. Pull it into a U shape do a little twist and the tent is back compact and small enough to put into the little bag that is supplied. Best put it in the bag quick before it pops open again. This bag will then also slide back into the box, ready for transporting to grandma's house or who ever else you might be visiting.
This pop up tent was bought for my daughters 1st birthday from Toys R Us at a sale price of £19.99 I don't know if this was a temporary sale or their new selling price for this product, but it used to cost £39.99. On the box it ...
