Concord Trimax - Colourful, spacious and good value

Advantages: Lots of colours to coordinate with your car and good value
Disadvantages: Although easy to adjust, it took a couple of attempts to get the hang of it

...OMG we're pregnant again! I called my hubby... "Erm, hun", I said, " well after 10 years of being careful (our daughter had just turned 10) I think our relaxed life and silent nights are going to be over..." The phone was silent, but I could hear the the last few brown hairs on his head turning a crisp grey....Oh dear. He came home from work with me waiting with open arms...he said "this is going to cost us a fortune" but hugged me with happiness. Nealry nine months later.... We had listed all the items we needed and at the top was CAR SEAT. How many car seats are there on the markets? LOADS!!! We surfed and shopped and came accross the CONCORD TRIMAX in Mothercare. It was suitable from 8 months which was when he would stop using his baby seat. Cost: around £90-£120 depending on the store and sales Colours: many...

Review of 13 Going On 30 (DVD)

I will not choose Concorde Lafayette anymore

Advantages: Excellent location
Disadvantages: Poor service quality

...I've been there last January on a 5 day business trip to Paris. I arrived with my husband late in the afternoon, as we approached the hotel in our taxi we were amazed to find out that our hotel was in the middle of top attractions in Paris. We were also delighted when we opened the curtains and saw the glittering Tour Eiffel at night and the luminous shape of Arc de Triomphe from the window of our room. But that was the end of it. Night 1 ----------- The room was near the ventilation system and the noise form the bathroom was unbearable. We called the reception about 11pm to ask for help; they ensured us that the noise will stop if we wait 30 minutes after we switch off the bathroom light. We explained that the light was off for an hour but they insisted. So we waited 30 minutes then called again, this time they said they will send...

Review of Concorde Lafayette, Paris

Concorde2, there will be something for you...

Advantages: Great choice in music...
Disadvantages: ...a little bit out of the way...but it keeps away the p..s heads(another advantage)

...Concorde2, Madeira Drive, Brighton, East Sussex. Concorde2 is situated at the end of Madeira Drive, towards the end of the covered over walk way. If walking from the pier you need to walk dowm Madeira Drive past Jim Thompson's and Burgerking, with them on your left, and the sea to your right. Keep walking for 10/20 minutes, way past Volks, until you see the Concorde2 on the opposite side of the road. Wait until now to cross the road, as the path is better lit on the right. And it is a pleasant walk as it is along the edge of the beach. The front of the club has central double doors, with blacked out windows either side. There is usually always a queue, before the doors open, but it does not take the staff long to get everybody in, and served! The door staff are the nicest I've met, and are extremly helpful. To the left is...

Review of Concorde 2 (Brighton)

Concorde Car Seat

Advantages: Light, easily cleaned, adjustable to fit individual child height.
Disadvantages: Not found any yet!

...I've used this car seat for several years now. My son is 9 and at 4 ft 8in he still fits into it. He's a sturdy lad as well. I know it seems like I'm wrapping him in cotton wool but we were in a very serious accident and I have no doubt at all that this car seat was the reason why my son came out of the crash virtually unscathed. The policeman who attended the scene was full of admiration for the seat and the paramedic having checked my son over was also amazed at how uninjured he was. The accident split my car in two (we were hit side on by a drunk driver going 70 mph in a 30 mph zone). My son had two small scratches on his face from flying glass and that was it. Although its not cool for a 9 year old boy to be in a car seat, this one does have credibility. It looks like a race car drivers seat and most of his friends tend...

Review of Concord Lift Evo PT Child Car Seat

Canon EOS 30D

Advantages: Multi-featured
Disadvantages: None

...This is a good quality product that offers good value for money in the very short term. Although as with most electronic products, the value will deteriorate over time and should be able to get a cheaper version next year. It's a great little device with plenty of features that I would highly recommend. This really is a wonderful piece of kit that should go well with many accessories because it really looks good. However, always think carefully as to whether you actually really need something before you buy it. We buy so many things nowadays that we don't really need.

Review of Canon EOS D30

Glide on over, to the M30

Advantages: cheaper end of the market, technically good, looks smart.
Disadvantages: dont get it wet!

... Foehn & Hirsch M30 glide MP5 player Yes yo are hearing me right! This, like a load of other players out their, claims to be some kind of weird and wonderful, new technology! I, for one, had never previously heard of MP5. Suddenly, they are all over the place. Ebay is full of the. But what are they? well the truth of the matter is that they are an MP3/MP4 player. Nothing new, or exciting. The claims are that an MP5 player can play file without the need for conversion. Forgive me if I am wrong, but have good MP4 players not been doing this for what seems like centuries? It seems to me, that this is nothing more than an advertising gimmick. Something primarily used to try and make the unbranded players look more competitive, in todays saturated media player market. So, before you think of buying any player, please ignore...

Review of Foehn & Hirsch M30

Olympus E-30. Still not up there with the big boys?

Advantages: Fold out LCD screen, Image Stabilization, Zuiko lens quality, Picture quality, Flash options
Disadvantages: Noise in low light, Too many buttons, Badly laid out, Too many gimmicks

...The E-30 is Olympus's own stepping-stone between the so-called "prosumer" models (what an awful word) and the E-3 professional SLR, being loosely comparable with the likes of the Canon EOS 50D, the Nikon D90 and the Sony Alpha A-350. It shares a lot of the E-3's features and has even overtaken the E-3 in terms of resolution, offering 12mp compared with the E-3's 10. Unfortunately - or fortunately, depending on your opinion - some of its features are things that serious photographers don't really want on their cameras and definitely push the E-30 towards the hobby photographers rather than the professionals. The E-30 doesn't share the E-3's weatherproof casing, in fact it is built from a plastic/fibre-glass composite material, which helps to keep the weight down and, surprisingly to me, doesn't make it feel cheap. It does look...

Review of Olympus E-30

13 going on 30 - a fairly predictable romcom

Advantages: Good cast, easy to watch
Disadvantages: Not very imaginative and the actors are underused

...WHAT IS IT: 13 Going on 30 is a romantic comedy starring Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo. 13 year old Jenna Rink has a practical joke played on her by the most popular girl in school, Lucy 'Tom Tom' Wyman, which leads Jenna to wish that she was 'Thirty, Flirty and Thriving' - a headline on her favourite magazine, Poise. As she rocks back and forth in her closet she bumps the shelf upon which is the 'dream house' her friend Matty has made for her birthday. The magical wishing dust Matty sprinkled on the dream house falls on Jenna and she wakes up to find herself 30 years old, an editor for Poise with a beautiful apartment and a very attractive if somewhat dim trophy boyfriend. As she tries to work out how she got to this point, she comes to realise that she is not the person she would like to be; she has become estranged from her parents...

The Sony DVP-PR30 Is My Little Black Box

Advantages: Neat, Stylish and Performs Well.
Disadvantages: Quite basic but it works well.

...Sony Persona DVP-PR30 is a Compact DVD Player in black. It is a neat little DVD Player with excellent performance, it has a Precision Drive 3 Mechanism for fast, stable and accurate playback. The playback has always been clear audibly and swift. There are many features to the Sony Persona DVP-PR30 including; Playback of DVD-RW/-R /-R DL (VR mode w/o CPRM), Playback of JPEG, mp3, Audio CD-R/RW, Super VCD discs, DivX Playback and Fast / Slow Playback with Sound. The product measures 998g and when boxed it weighs just 2.3 Kg. The Sony Persona DVP-PR30 was released in 2008 and is still relatively new to the market. Initially I bought this for my bedroom to work alongside my new wide-screen television set. It is lightweight but well made so the remote is easy to use with my TV. I loved the way it was so neat and compact it takes up hardly...
