Madman Across the Water / Elton John

Advantages: A classic, great production
Disadvantages: Only nine tracks

...If you love good music this album is a classic and a must for your collection. From 1971 it features very little commerical tracks but the classic Tiny Dancer & Levon are the first two tracks listed. Tiny Dancer was dedicated to the lyric writer Bernie Taupin's girlfriend Maxine. It is over six minutes long, a ballad in typical Elton John style with wonderful orchestral sound & harmonies. Other fabulous tracks include Holiday Inn, originally written in the late 1960s & never used until this album was recorded. the title track, Madman across the water is dramatic & haunting. Other memroable tracks include Indian Sunset, Rotten peaches & All the nasties. The production is second to none & with mandilon work by Davey Johnstone & the orchestral sound in the backgound it is an album that will give the listener hours of pleasure. Under rated...

John West and the Albatross

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...One of the most versatile items in my kitchen cupboard are the tins of Tuna fish. I usually buy John West tuna, as it is available in spring water as well as sunflower oil or brine. I prefer to buy tuna is spring water as I feel this is a healthier option even though it is more expensive and not so readily available. The product ************ The John West brand began in 1885 in Liverpool selling fruit and canned goods. By the turn of the 20th century they were importing 250,000 cases of salmon a year. Today John West is owned and operated by Simplot ,Australia. John West tuna fish comes in convenient cans. I buy the 185-gram size tins, as these are the most readily available. Tinned tuna has a long shelf life. I bought a pack of 4 tins of tuna in spring water yesterday and the use by date is 2010. Tuna fish is high in protein...

FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

John the Entertaining

Advantages: Very emotional writing
Disadvantages: Quite slow paced

...Up until now, I'd only ever heard of ''John the Revelator'' as a song. Judging from the several mentions of the song in the story and given that author Peter Murphy works in the music press, I suspect that's where the title of this novel came from as well. How much I enjoy the song depends on which version of it I hear, but with no such concerns with the book, I was able to enjoy it fully without worrying if someone had done a better version elsewhere that I was missing out on. John Devine is a teenager stuck in a small Irish town with a single mother, no real friends and a rather worrying fascination for bodily parasites, mostly intestinal worms. His only human contact is with his mother Lily, Mrs Nagle, an elderly neighbour and Harry Farrell, a local jack-of-all-trades. His only break from the house and from school is Sunday Mass. Not...

Cool Water

Advantages: Great long lasting fragrance
Disadvantages: can be a little expensive

...Cool Waters is a really popular fragrance which has been on the market since 1996. Whenever the name "Cool Water" is mentioned just about everyone knows exactly which perfume you are talking about and most people have either bought it or smelled it before. I have been buying Davidoff Cool Water for about 6 or 7 years now and use it quite reguarly because of its exotic long lasting scent. I wouldn't go as far as saying its my favourite perfume because I have well over 100 bottles of perfume and chosing a favourite would be too hard because I love the smell of all my perfumes. But out of all my perfumes this is the one which I use the most, usually about 4 or 5 times a week. Whenever I look the bottle of Cool Water it reminds me of sitting at the beach looking at the waves in the sea. I personally think that the name of the perfume...

Brecon Carreg Still Water

Advantages: Refreshing!
Disadvantages: It's just water!

...Water water everywhere, so let's all have a drink...at a slight cost to the consumer of course. The inventor of 'bottled water' is little short of a genius in my eyes, but then again we all need to make a living, so here's a product from one of those geniuses - Brecon Carreg Still Mineral Water. Coming from the deepest, darkest depths of the Welsh Valleys, Brecon Carreg is filtered through layers of limestone at 'Black Mountain' (that's somewhere in the Brecon Beacons for all those looking for a small geography lesson!). It's bottled at the source, as are all good brands of bottled water to help keep it's clean, fresh taste. Being natural mineral water there's no additional ingredients to help shelf-life or taste, but instead contains quantities of all the important minerals floating around in the Welsh mountains, such as...

Would you want to be John Malkovich?

Advantages: A modern comedy with a twist.
Disadvantages: Non in my opinion!

...Review of ?Being John Malkovich? , DVD format. Production Year: 1999. Genre- Comedy . Classification: 15 years and over ASIN B00004U8OC .Run time 112 minutes. The DVD Being John Malkovich is from Universal Studios, a modern comedy with a sci-fi/fantasy twist. The DVD I am reviewing is a one disc standard edition, with a few special features such as theatrical trailers, cast interviews and special effects information. I have to admit that I do not generally watch special features or bonus material on DVDs as I do not find it adds to my enjoyment as a rule. Cast Starring: John Cusack, Cameron Diaz, Catherine Keener, Orson Bean, Mary Kay Place, W. Earl Brown, John Malkovich, Sean Penn, Brad Pitt and Charlie Sheen Director: Spike Jonze The Plot Craig Schwartz, played by John Cusack, is a struggling street...
