trailer trASH?

Advantages: stand out song - 'The Intense Thing', no bad songs
Disadvantages: short, and few great songs

...I'm reviewing the UK version of the album, so the tracklisting is as follows: Season; Jack Names The Planets; Intense Thing; Uncle Pat; Get Out; Petrol; Obscure Thing Tim Wheeler (guitar and vocals), Mark Hamilton (bass) and Rick McMurray (drums) were teenagers when they recorded their debut album. 'Trailer' shows both sides to Ash - light and dark, alternating between them on the album, with opener 'Season' a song about a friend's suicide. Of the light side are the singles: 'Jack Names The Planets' is the only song with obvious singalong chorus, and begins with a bizarre conversation between two Dutchmen; whereas 'Uncle Pat' and 'Petrol' follows-up their verses with instrumentation - the former with a lead guitar line said by Tim to having a rural and Irish quality, whilst the latter is topped up by twinkling guitars and driven...

Review of Trailer - Ash

My first trailer, Ifor Williams 505.

Advantages: Lightweight, easy to tow, retain value, smart.
Disadvantages: No handle on inside of jocky door.

...After afew years of having horses and paying for transport I decided to buy a trailer after careful consideration. I had never towed before and did not have a vehicle suitable for towing. It was not a decision taken lightly. I had considered buying a lorry but contemplated that the costs would be considerably higher to sustain another roadworhty vehicle in comparison with higher daily fuel costs to run a 4 x 4. (correct me if I am wrong). I bought a suitable towing vehicle and an Ifor Williams 505 which was about 5 years old. This cost me £2500 (I have had it nearly 2 years) from a reputable dealer and had full service history. It may cost more from dealers but at the time it was the best option for me as I didn`t really know what I needed to check from a safety angle. Also looking at the advertisments at the time, there were not...

Movie Trailers Have Never Looked So Good

Advantages: Classic trailers for awful films
Disadvantages: None

...Who would have thought that trailers for movies could become as popular as the real thing? But this is exactly what has happened with Nucleus Films release Grindhouse Trailer Classics. Taking a leaf out of US DVD releases 42nd Street Forever, a series of DVD's that bought the power of cult, low budget and niche movie trailers into the homes of viewers, themselves inspired by Quentin Tarentino's Grindhouse movie. Watching trailers for movies from yesteryear may seem like a strangething to do, but if you're a fan of classic movies of the 60's, 70's and 80's that were far from blockbusters like myself, two hours of Trailer viewing will be right up your street. Grindhouse Trailer Classics opens a sort of vortex to the past, a glimpse at life before the dawn of the multiplex cinemas of Warner, Venue, or Cineworld. The success of this...

Trailer park of Terror - Worst excuse for a 'Zombie' film ever...

Advantages: Hick Accents, Soundtrack
Disadvantages: Weak, loose storyline, Lack of zombies and gore

...I watched this film last night - My partner bought it me for £5 from HMV as he knows how much I love zombies, and we were very much looking foward to a full on hillbilly gore fest. We watched .... and watched .....and watched right through until the end, but there was not a proper Zombie in sight. Once it became clear that nothing was really going to happen, we lost interest but still felt compelled to watch until the end. Which was a waste of time. The start looked fairly promising - A young Hillbilly Woman looking for revenge on her Trailer Park neighbours for killing her boyfriendafter meeting a weird guy on a bike. I kept having to go over the loose storyline in my head until the plot made sense, and as soon as I thought i knew what was going on, the story went on to focus on some apparent addicts on a detox road trip. It looked...

Review of Trailer Park Of Terror (DVD)

The trailers are always the best bit

Advantages: raw, unadulterated energy
Disadvantages: short, far too short

...Ok, so here’s where it all began, the very first music put out by my dear and favourite band, Ash. Although technically only an EP with 7 tracks, it is undoubtedly one of the finest albums ever produced and was, until their latest offering, Free All Angels, unrivalled as their best work. Which, although an admirable accolade for such a bright young band (they were still teenagers when Trailer was released), gave them something awfully big to live up to with the next album. 1977 came close, and was a fine album in its own right, but it was a different style and album for Trailer shows definite punk influences, jam packed full of youthful exuberance and energy. Starting with Season, a lively track where the electric guitars positively sing and Tim Wheeler’s angelic vocals are heard for the first time, calmly sung over...

Plas Equestrian starter harness great first harness, machine wash

Advantages: adjustability of the roko buckles and the machine wash
Disadvantages: Blinkers are a bit square and stiff

...I have this harness for my Shetland pony and find it excellent it really molds to her body shape and i think she finds it comfortable and a good fit, she goes very well in it. The roko fully adjustable buckles mean you can get the fit just right. The only down side i would say is the bridle as the blinkers are a bit stiff and you cannot mould them to fit around the eye. I use a traditional bridle with this harness but the plas equestrian bridle would be ok to start off with with pre driving training. The machine wash is what drew me to this, you can literally just chuck it in the wash and bung it on the line to dry, brilliant time saver - it washes well. All round good reasonably priced harness for training and pleasure driving....

Review of Plas Equestrian Starter Harness

Park you trailer here anytime, Beth.

Advantages: Beautiful vocals, meaningful lyrics. Every song is brilliant.
Disadvantages: Where's Beth disappeared to?

...Trailer Park was released in 1996 as Beth Orton's debut album, but it really doesn't show. I am sure you can find accomplished artists who can't bring out an album as good as this. Beth's vocals manage somehow to be both sweet and melancholy at the same time. And the songs actually mean something. They're well written and strangely touching, like an insight into the emotions of someone else's mind. The best song on the album is Track 10 : I Wish I Never Saw The Sunshine, a lesson in desolation ("Every day is like the one before, all alone a million miles from shore"). There are some startlingly long tracks on this album; Tangent is 7:29, Touch Me With Your Love is 7:27 and Galaxy of Emptiness is an astounding 10:07. Each of these three is rather experimental, like a fusion of Folk with Acid Jazz. Try as you might, you won't find...

Review of Trailer Park - Beth Orton

It might be called 'Trailer Park' but it ain't trash!

Advantages: Orton's vocals are just as earthy and warm as ever but with a nice electronic contempory feel.
Disadvantages: Sometimes it feels a tiny bit experimental but then this is also what's good abuot it.

Baby You Can Drive My Tractor

Advantages: Well made and lots of play value
Disadvantages: None although price might put some people off

...~Why We Bought It~ I bought this Playmobil Tractor and Trailer for my setting about ten months ago. This was bought for my three year old godson whom I care for full time. Joe is a big Digger/Tractor fan and has been keen on these since he was nine months old. ~ PRODUCT ~ The Playmobil Tractor ( which is blue, yellow, white , red and grey ) and Trailer ( which is yellow and white ) comes with Farmer ( wearing his green overalls and a red stripey t-shirt and green cap ) , rake, scythe and pitchfork. It is a very realistic looking Tractor and Trailor which looks just like the real thing (very important to a three year old boy). It has lots of working features and is very robust (also very important to a three year old boy): 1. Working front loader. 2. Trailer has removeable railing, opening back to unload...

Review of Playmobil Tractor and Trailer

We can transport toy cattle on this Brittains animal transporter.

Advantages: good model
Disadvantages: none

...I was rummaging in the toy vehicle box at work the other day and found this Britain?s livestock transporter. I was playing farms and had a Britain tractor out to play with. This Britain?s animal transporter fits all the 1:32 tractor models. So Johnny and I settled down to play with it. This toy is safe for children over 3 years of age; I think I qualify for that... Let?s look at this trailer first. It is a grey die cast vehicle, a detailed copy of a real Ifor Williams Livestock Trailer. This toy has rear loading ramp and safety rails which can be lowered to load /unload livestock this ramp then closes up into the trailer for transportation. This transporter has twin axles so it will follow the tractor round corners. This transporter just like a real one has the walls made in panels with gaps between so that the animals can...
