You spin me right round baby, right round

Advantages: The types of washing cycles you can do
Disadvantages: If you make an error your going to pay for it in the long run sadly

...This review is for the HAIER HW-C1470TVEME-U washing machine. Setup ---------- I have to admit the setup is very easy to do but you can have issues. You unpack the washing machine from the fantastic pack and you just place it where you like. The only odd part to setup is that sometimes you do need to open up the door and make the drum inside rotate a few times in order to begin your first wash. This is because it needs to know it is in use before hand, so this is the one thing you might have to do to begin setup. Design ----------- This washing machine is a really nice design. You have the door which has the glass there and the glass appears to be this light blue. When you look at this from a distance it does appear to be an ocean blue colour and yet when you go up close this is not the case at all. Just above the door you...

SPIN A YARN

Advantages: It keeps tradition alive.
Disadvantages: Costly to start.

...It seems a shame in this day and age that old crafts are almost forgotten, and that when they are encouraged, they tend to turn into elitist crafts, when in fact these crafts go back in time to simple people who made their living doing the things that came natural to them, handicrafts that have passed down through the family. The craft that I am particularly interested in is hand spinning of wool. I have been doing this for over 15 years now, and in England, it is sad that fleece are not more available or cheaper to people wishing to try their hand at spinning. HOW TO START What you need in the way of tools are the following : Carding Brushes A spinning Wheel (The Ashford Range are super for beginners). Fleece THE PROCESS The process itself is simple, and you begin by sorting the sheeps fleece into different kinds...

Top Spin

Advantages: Anything you want thats any good
Disadvantages: May be difficult to find if you dont know Newcastle

...Spin have been going for about ten years, although that's something thats based on my memory rather than fact. They are probably one of the best music shops around and specialise in quality rock especially The Grateful Dead and Frank Zappa. But thats just a tiny part of their appeal. They carry a lot of stock that the majors don't and are a lot more helpful if you are looking for a particular item. My recent purchases have been The Nice Immediate Years triple set , and The Fairport Convention Cropredy triple box, both costing a mammoth £12.99 each. If you're looking any rarities or boxed sets, especially from the major American Groups af the sixties and seventies then this is your place. The web site is extremely informative as well , born as much out of a desire to inform people, as to sell music. An excellent record shop....

Review of The Spin (Newcastle)

A really good spinning rod

Advantages: Toughest freshwater spinning rods money can buy, well made, doesn't cost a fortune
Disadvantages: Nothing (yet)

...a little bit to create versions suitable for freshwater spinning..... and since I'd wanted one of the boat rod versions since I first saw one in a Shakespeare Catalogue in 1993 / 1994, it wasn't long before I bought one of these spinning rods. The following year (2003), my Cousin's son James wanted me to teach him to fish....... and he ended up getting a cheapo Rod & reel combo, which not to put too fine a point on things, was crap. Sometime around April / May 2004 came his first Freshwater fishing session (all other previous sessions being next to Whitby Swing Bridge)....... and as his fluorescent yellow saltwater spinning rod wasn't really suitable for the task in hand (and absolutely stank of sea baits) I lent him my old spinning rod........ though the little tackle tart soon took a liking to my smaller Shakespeare Ugly Stik Gold 6ft...

Really worth getting in a 'Spin' about?

Advantages: Some promising solo work
Disadvantages: Some repetitive tracks too

...in the spring of 2002. With high expectations of the front man that I adored, what would my reaction be to his debut solo album? Track 1: Strange Relationship (5.02 minutes) Starting off the album was definitely one of the albums strongest tracks. 'Strange Relationship' seems to be a rhetorical rant about the loss of love and the feeling of disownment from a lover or even a friend. That, I feel was left quite ambiguous for the listener to make their mind up over. This was the second single, reaching #15 in the UK singles charts. Marks out of 10: 8 - One of the best tracks on here that probably should have got more recognition for its greatness. Track 2: Insatiable (5.10 minutes) I will never forget the day I first saw this video. As the first single from 'Spin', Darren had changed his style quite dramatically; now...

Review of Spin [ECD] - Darren Hayes

You spin me right round, baby right round!

Advantages: Brightly coloured, eye catching, fun, durable
Disadvantages: Doesn't spin much

...Having 2 children close together creates nothing but a nightmare when special occasions loom on the horizon and the time comes to go birthday shopping. You know the story, the older child already had the toys and they're still in great condition so why buy them again. This is the dilemma I face when choosing a toy for my little girls birthday, she had plenty of things for when she was a bit older, lots of clothes and books but I wanted to get her a toy, all of her own, that her brother hadn't played with before her. We scoured the shops for days searching out a toy suitable for her age, gender and interests, in the end we settled on this spinning top because she picked it out herself, we gave her a choice of several possible toys and this was the one that she got most excited about.

Fisher price bounce and spin zebra..... A bouncing spinning Zebra

Advantages: Keeps the little ones happy
Disadvantages: Annoying music, noisy..... but thats just us ;o) the kids will love it

...My little one had this for christmas last year and it's still going strong today so yes it is pretty durable and tough! It's a super cute bouncy spinning zebra, which plays (annoying ahhem*) music!! It came in a rather large, heavy box as I remember, but putting it together was a doddle (even for me!!!) The green base snaps together with each triange then forming a hexagon, it fits around the base of the zebra (I had to put his handles on too) and then thats pretty much it (there may have been some screws I can't remember). My little one has had hours of fun on it (so have the older two) but it seemed a lot smaller than I expected?? At £45 it wasn't cheap but it was one of his big presents so I didn't mind. I bought mine out of the christmas toy catalouge, but they are sold in argos and toysrus for roughly the same price. It...

Washing Blues ( NOT )

Advantages: Cheap and good looking
Disadvantages: NONE so far

...The very smart looking white unit, which the very kind Argos man had just delivered, was something my wife had been waiting on for ages. What with car MOT and repairs and god knows what else the funds just simply were not available for a new washing machine, and other priorities were dealt with first. So when the funding became available you can imagine how relieved my wife was to finally have a washing machine again. The old one god bless it's little old motor had served us very well and my wife had pondered seriously with the idea of getting one of the same manufacturer's newer model. However it was an article in a magazine that was highlighting up and coming electronics company Haier that swayed both her and I towards one of their models. Haier are a Chinese company and I suppose the best comparison would be saying they...

2K Sports serve up another treat with Top Spin 3!

Advantages: The attention to detail! Variety of Venues! Online play!
Disadvantages: Suprisingly difficult at first!

...And they have done it again. 2K Sports have served up another one of their top-quality tennis games as a follow on from Top Spin 1 and 2. And I would like to be the first to say this is by far the most realistic, well programmed and fun tennis game to date on any console. This version of Top Spin gives you the latest, best and most realistic tennis experience to ever grace a console. Unlike other Tennis games this is the first tennis game which has a superb in-game detail. An example of this is that once your in-game and playing and your in the final set of your match you and your opponent actually begin to sweat and get dirty and also, consequently there stamina lacks and your player begins to miss hits. Unlike the X Box 360 version of the game this is easier to use and features World Number One Rafael Nadal. There is many...

Review of Top Spin 3 (PS3)

Spinning a Success...

Advantages: Very Quiet, Long-Lasting
Disadvantages: None!

...Here we are, a superb hard disk. Quiet, durable and fast. With a 7200rpm spin speed and its SATA interface, this drive is the perfect desktop hard disk. I've now installed two of these in a RAID stripe, and they've always been fast and reliable. However, that's all good and dandy and stuff, but many, many hard disks last a very long time, serving their computer impeccably year after year. What should make this one different? At the end of the day, it's a manufacturer's average performance that allows you to spot a quality hard disk. For instance, I've purchased 4 Maxtor hard disks in my time, and 3 of them have failed all within the first year of operation. On the other hand, I've purchased 5 Samsung SpinPoint drives and they're all still going. The first was a 120GB ATA-133 jobby, which was bought 2 years ago. This remains...
