Q+PR: The Cosmos Rocks

Advantages: All new material, great music.
Disadvantages: No Freddie or John, but at least we have something, and it's something great.

...The Cosmos Rocks is the brilliant new album from Queen + Paul Rodgers. Nearly every song on here is amazing; though there are a few poorer songs, namely Warboys, most of the songs are wonderful. There's rocky songs like Cosmos Rockin' and C-lebrity, and there are slower songs like Small and We Believe (Rodgers' anti-war song). This is a must-have for any Queen fan, and is a great album to have on in the car, to put on your MP3 player, in fact it's great anywhere. Those who have doubted Queen + Paul Rodgers really must listen to this, regardless of whether you think Q+PR is "real Queen" or not, it's still wonderful. Don't forget you can get the special edition with a DVD of Live In Japan Highlights!...

Review of Cosmos Rocks, The (Tour Edition) - Queen & Paul Rodgers

Sun,Sea and Cosmos

Advantages: Trouble free holiday
Disadvantages: To much hard selling of trips

...After reading various ops on tour operators and their terrible service I felt I had to put fingers to keyboard and tell you all about my experience with Cosmos in Gran Canaria. To be honest, tour operators seem to have quite a bad reputation in general but I am pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised by Cosmos. We arrived at Las Palmas airport and were met by the first Rep who directed us to our bus and welcomed us to the island. The half hour journey to the apartments was entertaining enough with Rep number 2 giving us a brief but jolly account of some of the things to see and do at the resorts and also a few plugs for Cosmos’s organised excursions. We were also handed welcome packs which gave information on nearest medical centres, emergency contact numbers and details of the welcome meeting the following day. Our...

Cosmos Maris - a perfect getaway

Advantages: Pretty much everything!
Disadvantages: Maybe a little out of the way for some people.

...compared to the meals we had in Lardos, costing three times the price and being nowhere near as enjoyable! Overall the Cosmos Maris is a special place to go on holiday, in a perfect setting with a warm welcome and a family feel. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing break....

Review of Cosmos Maris, Rhodes

Cosmos for the best holiday

Advantages: Great value, great service, lovely reps
Disadvantages: none

...I have to say, that of all the tour operators I’ve ever used (and there have been a few), Cosmos is definitely the best. Their service is second to none, and I now go out of my way to try and book my holidays with them. When we booked our holiday to Tunisia last year, we found a “palatial” 4 star hotel in the Cosmos brochure for less than half the price that Airtours were offering (we booked out of the brochure, not last minute). We arrived amid problems caused by the airline (JMC), to find two wonderful reps waiting for us at the gate. They very quickly arranged to pick up our daughters pushchair (which JMC had left at Manchester airport) when it arrived on a later flight. One of the reps then took our luggage trolley for us, while the other took our daughter, to allow us to catch our breath. Once...

Review of Cosmos

cosmos on the nile

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: not a lot

...We booked with Cosmos when we did our 4th visit to Egypt,and I have to say it was the best visit we had.Price wise there wasnt a great deal of difference to any other visit[about £580 per person]but there was much more for our money as far as tours were concerned.We like to do a week on the Nile and a week in Luxor and all packages usually include 10 guided tours whilst on the cruise,but Cosmos went that little bit extra .Anormal part of a cruise is a felluca sail in Aswan round Kitcheners Island and a visit to the High Dam,but this time we were taken onto the island to spend time in the beautiful botanic gardens,which were amazing.We had plenty of time to see every thing and get a cool drink and a bite to eat,and our visit to the dam also included a stop to see the quarry where the unfinished obelisk is.We were so glad to have...

Review of Cosmos

Poor Cosmos Service in The Gambia

Advantages: None--totally useless.
Disadvantages: Curt, only interested in selling trips. Totally uninterested in customers.

...Our Cosmos Rep in The Gambia was the most useless I've ever met. Introduction Meeting? He didn't hold one--bit swore to us he did--err, I was there--you were just selling a trip to group of guys! Polite manner? He didn't have one. Ability to give information? Did he know anything? Didn't seem to. Our room had only cold water in a basin, no working shower and broken fittings, we wanted to change rooms. His solution? I can take you to another hotel--you pay me the brochure price difference. When I said that was not acceptable, he told me to see than hotel manage and sort ot out myself. On our final day we were delivered to the airport at 11 a.m, told to check in and go through security--even though the Rep knew our plane had not even left England! We were left for 9 hours with a "meal voucher" that bought one sandwich--no drink...

THE ROCK!

Advantages: read opp
Disadvantages: read opp

...In 1996, Michael Bay directed the box office smash hit "The Rock", starring Nicholas Cage, Sean Connery and Ed Harris. Although quite a old film, I once again saw this film last week, and I cant seem to get bored of it. Michael Bay is a brilliant director, his story telling, action sequences and special effects always make a film watchable. The Plot: The film revolves around a group of rogue marines, who fed up with the American governments support for war veterans, decide to plot revenge on their own government. Led by Francis X. Hummel (Ed Harris), the marines steal VX nerve gas from a military base. They then find themselves taking hostages at Alcatraz Island, were guided tours are now present. The marines take control of the island, planting the VX nerve gas al over the island ready to launch if needed. Now knowing...

Cooler Master Cosmos S - Review

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: Nothing

...First of all the Cosmos S case comes in excellent protective packaging. A sturdy cardboard outer box encases two styrofoam blocks (top & bottom) which prevent the case from moving at all during transportation. The case is wrapped inside of a plastic bag, and then again, inside Cooler Master's own fabric bag which is brown in colour and is strong enough to retain and use in the future whenever the case needs covering. It's the little extra's and attention to detail that makes a lot of difference in my opinion. If first impression's are anything to go by, then this case ticks all the boxes. It's huge, beautiful and demands the attention of any passer by, whether they are interested in computers or not! Along with the case comes a plastic bag containing all of the necessary bits and pieces to assemble the case and control the cable...

Cosmopolitian Europe!

Advantages: seen lots in a short space of time
Disadvantages: was expensive

...Cosmos - Cosmopolitan Europe For my honeymoon my husband and I decided to do a tour of Europe. I didn't want to fly as I had a very bad experience on my GAP year after a flight and wanted to be relaxed at all times on our honeymoon. After long hours searching on the internet we decided to book a Cosmos Tour called Cosmopolitan Europe. It lasted 14 nights and 15 days and would start in London and end there too. Booking with Cosmos was easy enough once we got speaking to the right person. We had tried to book online but there were problems and it held our booking and as we had taken the last 2 seats when we tried to book it again it said it was unavailable, I was devastated! So I rang them and they said the tour was cancelled as not enough people were going on it. After I came off the call I thought 'no that can't be right' so I...

Rock ON!!!

Advantages: Great game, lots of music, levels
Disadvantages: None

...Guitar Hero 3 - Legends of Rock!!! My husband and I love our Wii and are always looking for new games and when Guitar Hero came out we knew we had to get it. I had heard about it alot from other people and from reading reviews for other games systems so was excited when I saw it had come out for Wii. We bought the game pack from Argos for £69.99, a bit steep for a new computer game but bear in mind that you are not only getting a game but also the hardware to go with it, namely the guitar. The guitar is plastic and I would say almost as big as a real guitar but not quite. It looks and feels like a real guitar so already the game has an authentic feel to it. It comes with a strap that you can detach and that allows you to put over your head and hold onto the guitar safely, much like a real one. When you first start out...
