Its on the ball

Advantages: efective little cleaner
Disadvantages: Noisy

...I have a small home so when I needed a new vacuum cleaner I chose the Dyson DC24 which is a smaller version of the standard model. It cost £189.99. I was expecting almost a child sized vacuum cleaner but there is not really much difference at all. It was so simple to put together, there are peel off stickers on the unit to explain things as you go. It only took me 5 minutes to have it assembled. The ball makes vacuuming effortless, and the head of the vacuum is narrow so its easy to get under the sofa, low tables, etc. It has strong suction as you would expect from a Dyson but it is surprising how full the cylinder is when you have finished. It really gets everything up. This does mean however that you need to empty the dust cylinder quite frequently. The power cable is short and not retractable which can look a bit untidy if it is...

STEVE 0-1 MITRE SOCCER LITE BALL

Advantages: GOOD SOLID BALL - STAYS IN THE AIR - BOUNCES WELL - TRUSTWORTHY BRAND
Disadvantages: TAKES A WHILE TO PUMP UP - WOULDN'T RECOMMEND TO USE BARE FOOT

...This ball is used by many local teams in the local football league and after playing Sunday League football for a few years now I decided I'd review this ball as I have had good times using the ball but also a nasty time which sticks in my mind. Anyway I'll tell you about the good times using the ball and why I like it. After playing most of our league and cup games using the ball you get to know how it bounces and how hard to hit it etc ... playing with it week in and week out you get to know it. That's the plus point about the ball it is predictable and you can estimate where it'll bounce and how high etc ... Anyway the good times I have had using the ball was in the few games I actually scored with it and I must say they was all outside the area and the ball was like a rocket there was no chance the keeper was going to save it...

Review of Mitre Soccer Lite Match Ball

A Load Of (Foot)Balls

Advantages: Playing a match is still good fun, WiFi mode.
Disadvantages: No Master League mode, too many other features stripped out. Half a game.

...When it came to buying handheld games consoles in my household it was a real no-brainer. My girlfriend would have a Nintendo DS so she could play all the cutesey games that she wanted to, and I would be more manly and have a PSP. After all, with Pro Evolution 5 (at that point in time the latest incarnation of the series, and one of my all-time favourite football games) I could take my passion for football anywhere I went and know that I would still have the same sublime gameplay that I had previously experienced on the XBox. Oh what a shame it is that the PSP version is as bad as it is... In it's favour, the gameplay retains all of it's former glory within the actual matches themselves. Whilst the animation sometimes isn't as smooth as you would expect on the home console versions, it nevertheless does a perfectly adequate job...

Dyson DC25 Animal - Having A Ball!

Advantages: Large collecting bin and great suction!
Disadvantages: Not so Lightweight, and Power Cord could be longer.

...I bought my Dyson DC25 Animal about a month ago now, and have been very pleasantly surprised by the results. My old vacuum worked perfectly and I was more than happy with it, but once it started emitting smoke during use, I knew it was time to purchase a replacement. I did a little internet research and as we have a cat, the animal dyson appeared to be our best option. I was intrigued by the "ball" by Dyson and went to Curry's to have a closer look. The handling of the Dyson Ball is very smooth and remarkably easy. Once you've released the locking mechanism that keeps it upright, the vacuum becomes very flexible. No more pushing and shoving the vacuum around the room or furniture. With a simple turn of the wrist the Dyson goes exactly where you want it to go. I've found that the suction is incredible. With my previous...

Review of Dyson DC25 ALL Floors / DC25 BALL HEPA

Dyson Ball DC25

Advantages: Very light and very manoeverable.
Disadvantages: Bit too light and moves around a lot.

...on the machine to stop it moving around. It comes with a 5 year guarantee which is not bad for household equipment, but the replacement filters are around £18 which i thought a bit expensive. The tools are easy to use and simple push in to the side of the machine. Very easy to clip on and off and of course saves storage space as they fit into the machine itsef. Removing the filters i found the top one easy, but the one in the ball very fiddly and quite hard to get out. On the whole i would recommend this product but only for small houses or flats. If you have a large home then i would suggest the larger and heavier model of this cleaner....

Review of Dyson DC25 ALL Floors / DC25 BALL HEPA

Golden balls indeed!

Advantages: delicious, attractive foils, quite cheap
Disadvantages: unhealthy

...there would have been around twenty five or so, which was good since they were a fair size! That's quite surpising as I tend to find manufacturers only half fill bags, which is not only a waste of packaging, but a complete rip off too! Taking hold of one of the balls, I found it was very much a spherical shape. I began to pick at the end of the foil, and pulled it off. I found this was very easy to do indeed, not leaving any bits flying about. Before me I now had a pale milk chocolate coloured ball. From it drifted an excepionally sweet and strong milk chocolate scent. It reminded me of that which came from Easter eggs - an aroma I do certainly adore! This was surprising as I didn't think anything so small could smell so powerful. I popped the football into my mouth and began to suck. As the chocolate slowly began to melt into a little pool...

Taggie ball!

Advantages: fun, cute, baby friendly
Disadvantages: doesn't roll...

.... She will play for hours on end with the books so I am always on the look out for something new for her to take her fancy. Now that she is 10 months old and starting to throw her toys around I thought the next item she really needs is a ball and how delighted was I when I noticed that Taggies do a ball now! This ball is designed to look like a football with it's black and white hexagonal pieces of material. Out of each of the black shapes is the taggie ribbon loops. These all vary in colour and texture from plain ones, patterned ones, silky ones and cord ones. Each one is different so as to attract the baby's attention and encourage the sense of touch as they explore each ribbon. What is great about this toy for my baby is the black and white element of it. She has always been interested in stark contrasts of colours like this...

Review of Taggies Toss The Taggie First Touch Black & White Ball

Playing with balls

Advantages: Stupid, funny, stupidly funny and Walken
Disadvantages: It is very very stupid!

..., performing his trick shots and amazing skills for bored patrons who watch while eating at some low quality casino. But now his peculiar skills are needed. Su Feng, the man who had his father killed when he couldn't pay up in '88, is thought to be a major weapons smuggler and arms dealer. The FBI have tried but cannot get anywhere near him to find evidence until they find out that he is about to hold an invitation only table tennis tournament in his secret island base. If Randy can get an invite then they have a way of getting an agent in and maybe shutting down the evil crimelord. As an added bonus Randy may once again prove himself the best in the world and regain his name and honour. Ok Balls of Fury has possibly the craziest plotline of any major film that I have seen for a long time (apart from Shaolin Soccer maybe but then the Asian...

Review of Balls Of Fury (DVD)

This ball is what makes football creative!!!!

Advantages: Perfect material(leather)/Good in the air/ Keeps Shape
Disadvantages: Expensive

..., straight and hot) Which is why when this ball was used in the F.A there were many goals conceded (not recent F.A cup) Well to sum up my opinion is this ball is brilliant for those football fanatics (me) who like to practice constantly (me again) as like i said before it helps with accuracy as its the perfect weight for speeding through the air, it helps with speed as it glides nicely on almost all surfaces, and it helps keep a smile on your face as after a good few months of playing with it intensely it still looks gleaming (meaning its a tough ball that doesn't spoil too quickly)...

Review of Mitre Ultimax Ball

Super Balls.

Advantages: Very handy, nice shiny silver effect for cakes, desserts. Contains no gunk.
Disadvantages: Little taste to them.

...Dr Oetker / Super Cook's Silver Balls What are they? *************** Sugar silver balls used in decorating cakes, biscuits buns and desserts. Special Features? ******************* These are tiny little silver balls made from sugar but covered with silver colouring. They contain no hydrogenated fats, artificial colours, artificial flavours, artificial sweetners or any artificial preseratives. What do I think of them? ************************* I really like using these for decorating, something silver and shiny just to add a bit of extra sparkle. My mum hates them as they remind her of metal and I suppose they can taste a little metallic when you have this thought in mind. They are also quite hard in texture, especially when they first go in your mouth, but being made of only sugar they do soon melt away. In...
