The Saville 2 Bond Street Hotel, Sydney

Advantages: Right in the centre of the action
Disadvantages: No real disadvantages.

...Stayed at the Saville in April 2007. I had heard mixed reports about it so was a bit apprehensive. The studio apartment was very well equipped with washer & dryer, dishwasher, microwave, full oven & grill and 2 TV's as well as DVD player and hi-fi. The lighting was a bit low especially in the bathroom, but on the whole the room was very comfortable and elegantly decorated It was Easter weekend and there was quite a lot of noise on the first night from some girls in a nearby apartment, but after that no problems. The staff were polite but a little distant, and the concierge although helpful was a bit unforthcoming with information. We had to push him for more details than he seemed prepared to give. The location is great, right in the centre on George Street, the main drag up to Circular Quay and the Rocks, and just off the main...

bond

Advantages: bond
Disadvantages: na/

...Wii quantum of solace I love the Wii and think that it is a great invention, with bond being back in the latest episode this was a game that had appeal, what made it more appealing is that my dad had James bond Golden eye on the playstation, which I enjoyed playing, so this is a game I thought was worth getting especially as it had been released on the Wii. The Quantum of Solace on Wii also incorporating Casino Royale and with a exciting single player mode that has you using the Wii remote as a gun to shoot your way through various levels, as you play Bond and you need all your skills and gadgets that bond would have to face the enemies. Along with all your favourite character and voices, along with scenes from the film. Multiplayer is a essential part of any bond game and this is no exception, you have the choice to have...

Street Lurvin'

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: A couple of tunes lack energy

...The Atlanta R&B singer Lloyd (Polite) released his second album in 2007. The record, ?Street Love? featured some of his most well-known tracks, and although he broke through with his debut, this is the album which had him really come up with some of his highest-quality work. 1. ?Lloyd? (Intro) 2. ?You? Samplign Spandau Ballet?s ?True?, this one finds the artist doing a banger of a collaboration with Lil? Wayne, in the time when Weezy started off his streak of featured tracks designed as a build-up to his ?Tha Carter III? album. It gets this thing underway well and shows off his incredible vocals form the get-go. **Five Stars** 3. ?Certified? It is Jazzy Pha who is seen to behind this one, and it appears that he really knows what to do (based upon his Crunk & B work with other Atlanta R&B singers, and so in order to bring in that...

Azure Bonds

Advantages: See Review
Disadvantages: See Review

...Azure Bonds: Azure Bonds is a fantasy novel set in the ?Forgotten Realms? which is a setting for the table-top RPG, ?Dungeons and Dragons?. For more information on Dungeons and Dragons or Forgotten Realms try Wikipedia as they have some really awesome pages there with as much information as you could ever need! Azure Bonds begins with the novels main character, (a mercenary called Alias), coming to in an Inne. Alias has no memory of recent events, (although she remembers events from her more distant past), and has a strange tattoo on her arm. Alias decides that her fellow adventurers must have played a drunken prank on her and left her in the Inne to sober up. Alias soon discovers that she was found unconscious outside the Inne and begins her quest to discover what happened. Before long, Alias is joined by three other adventurers...

Pubescant Bond

Advantages: This covers the untold and grey areas of Bond's life.
Disadvantages: Not as explicit as Flemings novels

...In the same way that JK Rowling rejuvenated reading and made reading full length novels cool again, Fast Show creator Charlie Higson has done the same thing with James Bond. Although a sensible thing to do, Rowling took a character and deliberately made him a child allowing for growth and experience to kick in along the journey of the story in the books, the difference between Harry Potter and James Bond is that we don't actually know what Potter's destiny will actually be until the last story. With Bond it is different, we know that he will become an Agent of the Secret Service and from the novels of Ian Fleming will have some idea on his attitude to life as well the obligatory views towards the opposite sex. In Silverfin, Charlie Higson has taken away all the well known characteristics that we associate with Bond and left a blank...

The Names Bond Museum Keswick

Advantages: Interesting if you like James Bond
Disadvantages: If you don't like Bond its not for you

...I visited the museum in June this year whilst having a short break in the Lakes with my other half. Unfortunately it rained most of the time (but hey I expect that now when I visit the Lakes!) so on one rainy day we drove up from Windermere to visit the Bond Museum in Keswick. I must admit we did this originally because we thought it would pass a few hours and most importantly keep us dry! I thought it would be a bit boring to be honest, but couldn?t come up with another plan so my other half won. I can however report that I was pleasantly surprised and, shock horror, actually enjoyed the experience! A Bit of Museum Background The James Bond Museum is a relatively new attraction in Keswick, opening in April 2009. The collection at the museum has been put together by James Bond fanatic, Peter Nelson...

The word on the Street

Advantages: Triumph name, price, looks, handling, engine etc etc
Disadvantages: No fairing so lack of weather protection

...Bit of background: ------------------------- I already own a Triumph Daytona 995i, which I am happy with. Time will come some day when I may have to change it, or simply buy another bike for regular running. After the news that my local Triumph dealer is closing their franchise, I decided to look for the next nearest one. This led me to Team Roberts Triumph in Conisbrough (near Doncaster). Test ride Sir? ------------------ Arrived at the shop with just the intention of having a look round, really to see where it was and what it was like. Got chatting to the owner and after casual conversation the question came up: "Have you got your licence with you?" "Yes why?" "Can take that out for a blast if you like" -pointing to the gleaming black Street Triple, which was looking at me through the window. "Errrmmm no.. No its...

Review of Triumph Street Triple

Bond, James Bond,

Advantages: Great story, Graphics
Disadvantages: Gameplay a little boring at times

... Bond, James Bond Ever fancied yourself as the next 007? If yes this is a must buy for you. Storyline The story follows quite close to the actual film, but as if you were skipping the bits in the middle, as it fast forwards quite a lot. You play as bond (Of cause) and you must stop a man of evil from completing his evil deeds (you know the general Bond type game). Gameplay Gameplay is good, with most of the game being played as 1st person switching to 3rd for things like hiding against walls whilst being shot at, so don't expect any camera angles from inside walls. The puzzles for things like hacking doors and uploading viruses are far too easy, the door hacking is a button sequence type mini-game (yawn). Graphics The graphics are decent, with everything looking and feeling right...
