Grecian 2000 is wonderful - if used correctly

Advantages: Gradual. 100% better than a dye
Disadvantages: None - really. (maybe the lotion is a bit smelly - but it's only a day or two)

...I think the previous review is unfair - to call this product "rubbish". I have used it for over 20 years and it's very good indeed. There is a little truth that the instructions are not very clear. So let me tell you - as someone who's original colour is blond - you need probably 3 days first application. After that 48 hours is enough per application, once in 2 - 3 weeks. Even 24 hours is enough for a "boost". (Because of the smell I use a towel on the pillow, and when I have the lotion on I prefer to wear a hat because my hair is flyway, and longish, so it would look a mess! ) After the treatment I apply a hair cream and it looks wonderful. It's VERY natural looking because it's gradual and looks a bit like I have paid a million dollars for highlights!!!...

Review of Grecian Formula 2000

Wrestlemania 2000

Advantages: The ladder match, the Main event, the hardcore match
Disadvantages: Much of the rest of it seemed like filler

...The start of 2000 had seen a string of great action in the WWF (or as it's now the WWE), following on from No Way Out and Royal Rumble 2000 was the show case event of the year Wrestlemania 2000. With the absence through injury of Stone Cold Steve Austin the company had started to build it's self through the heel (bad guy) faction of the McMahon-Helmsley faction lead by HHH and Stephanie McMahon. And this was the main story going into the event though of course not the only one. There was the fall out of the Royal Rumble which had run as almost equal in the storyline stakes, whilst the 3 way tag team feud between Edge and Christian, The Hardy Boys and The Dudley Boys had escalated further. Whilst Kurt Angle had been winning the lower tier titles for fun holding both the European and the Inter Continental titles and the Chris' (Benoit...

Review of WWF - Wrestlemania 2000 (DVD)

LG 22LH2000. Satisfyingly adequate

Advantages: Connectivity, Weight, Price
Disadvantages: Build quality

...concerned about was connectivity because I have a number of digital cameras that have HDMI connections, a VCR and DVD player that connect via SCART and an S-Video to Composite Video output from my PC for when I want to use a second monitor. The 22LH2000 has 2 x SCART sockets (of which one is RGB), 1 x HDMI, 1 x Coax aerial, 1 x VGA monitor socket, an audio input and a set of Composite Video sockets. For the sake of experimentation (and nothing else) I did try plugging my PC into the VGA socket and the TV functions perfectly well as a monitor, with a maximum resolution of 1360 x 760 pixels. The quality of the display was more than adequate ? although a little less crisp than my Emprex monitor. I?m sure I could fine tune this if it was ever going to become a permanent arrangement. Initial set-up was easy enough, with the TV handling most...

Air 2000/First Choice Flights

Advantages: Cheap but not cheerful
Disadvantages: Offer you no support if things go wrong

...Now the holiday season is fast approaching, no doubt many of you will be perusing the websites and holiday books for ideas on where to spend that elusive two-week break. To be honest, when booking a package holiday I never really took into consideration which airline would be responsible for taking me to my Mediterranean destination. All I looked for was the nearest airport and then the price. ***** WHO ARE THEY AND WHAT THEY DO ******** Since we travelled with Air 2000, they have since become First Choice Flights. As Air 2000 they were quite surprisingly an award winning UK airline. Every year, the airline's 29 aircraft make on average 30,000 flights from fifteen airports in the UK and Ireland. Air 2000 started on 11 April 1987 and is the UK's 3rd largest charter airline. The airline flies from Manchester, London...

LG 19LH2000 - Buy it if you see it cheap!

Advantages: Good picture quality, sound
Disadvantages: None, really!

...him only moments to get the wires etc in the right places and get a picture on the screen, and it was all tuned in (including the built-in Freeview) within about ten minutes. He didn?t really use the instruction manual, as it was so simple ? but the manual is not too bad, and I reckon I could have done it myself with the information provided reasonably quickly. Perhaps it?s just the comparison with our dodgy-brand main television, but the picture quality is awesome in my view ? really sharp, vivid colours and no shadowing on the edges. This is especially apparent when you?re watching nature programmes, as I like to ? far better on the smaller screen with better detail and clarity. The sound is also very good considering the speakers are quite small, and there seems to be less variation in volume between channels, which I think is perhaps...

Motorhouse 2000 - Is it any good?

Advantages: Many cars and models to select from, great choice and well laid out display
Disadvantages: Sales personel arent too helpful, test rides not available

...In a nutshell - yes it is! there are such a wide variety of cars to select from, from top the range Mercedes to Base model Fiesta's In my opinion this is the place to look for a nearly new car as it has such a range and even if you were to draw up a shortlist of 4 or 5 cars you wanted to see, you could guarantee that they would be in stock and that you would be able to view them all within a couple of hours. the only disadvantage i found was that when i asked fro a test ride i was not permitted one, I'm not sure of this is because I'm only 22 and i was buying a 2002 reg 5 month old Renault Megane 1.4 Dynamique, i wasn't going to steal it as i had said i would leave my bank card with him and my dad was there with me, so not sure what the reason was there? Anyway, the model i brought was the one i wanted, it was in very good...

Review of Motorhouse 2000 Ltd

VX2000 is the best consumer camcorder... ever?

Advantages: Amazing picture quality/features/just everything.
Disadvantages: Guess some people would prefer smaller cameras

...Reading the reviews of equipment you get into the idea that everything is good. Magazines and websites barely ever give ratings less than 80%. The review I read gave the Sony DCR-VX2000E 96% and a gold, or platinum, or some metallic award. At the time of writing, the VX2000 is Sony's latest flagship consumer model - going into direct competition with Canon's XL-1 and replacing their previous flagship, for 4 years, the VX1000. It's a digital camcorder (of course) using MiniDV tapes and InfoLithium Ion (series L) batteries. With a 12x optical zoom (48x digital), super steady shot, a high resolution colour LCD screen, colour viewfinder, digital effects, manual zoom ring (which the VX1000 sadly lacked), manual controls for focus, white balance, shutter speed, exposure, and also auto program modes (Aperture, and shutter priority modes...

Collection 2000 Natural Matt+ Foundation

Advantages: Keeps skin dry and grease-free all day ~ Cheap ~ Easy to apply
Disadvantages: No coverage

...Little information is available for Collection 2000, save for their contact details (see below). I first became aware of them as a teenager - their products were often given away with teen magazines such as Just 17 or More! Their whole range is extremely good value for money with foundations starting at around £1.99. I was looking for a cheap, everyday-wear foundation and I decided to choose Collection 2000 as I've liked their products in the past. I bought this foundation from eBay costing £1.99. I'm unsure of their full range of colours, but I chose Natural Ivory as I'm very pale. Natural Matt+ ----------------- As the name suggests, this foundation is designed to keep the complexion matte throughout the day. The ingredient used for this purpose is kaolin. Water is top of the ingredients list, but other ingredients include...

Grecian 2000 Foam

Advantages: amazing natural blond colour of my youth
Disadvantages: smell whilst re-applying - only 2-3 days a fortnight

...I have used Grecian 2000 for about 15 years. I now use the foam. I find I need more that "3" golf balls of foam, and I make sure it is well absorbed to the roots. Regarding what was written on a previous review that it takes so long on first application and that one cannot wash one's hair all that time... It is true that perhaps the first application needs a longer time for the change to take effect. However after that it is only a question of once a fortnight for 2, maybe 3, days. (Or, alternatively every week for a day - 2 days). I also find that the process CONTINUES after applying even though I have washed it all out, so it is better to underdo rather than overdo the application.. What is worth noting is that perhaps being blond, the process is quicker (than that of black hair, for example). I don't remember needing to...

Review of Grecian Formula 2000 Foam

Canon Powershot SX200 IS

Advantages: Lots of zoom, lots of pixels, sturdy
Disadvantages: No internal memory, flash pops up whether you want it to or not

...I bought this camera recently as I purchased a Canon EOS1000D DSLR and I wanted a compact digital with a large zoom for the times when I didn't feel like lugging the DSLR and all it's accessories around with me. I'd looked around at other models, and I know that there are many other cameras that offer a much higher zoom, but I finally settled on this one for a number of reasons. a) 12 million pixels. This is more than I'll probably ever need as it's very rare that I print anything above 8x10 but it was an upgrade on my previous digital compact. b) 12x optical zoom. This is more than adequate for general photography, any more and I think you do probably need a tripod. c) NB-5L Li-Ion Battery. This is just a personal preference but I prefer the rechargeable Li-Ion batteries. It's fairly cheap to buy a couple of spares and I...
