...The M6 is a complete nightmare for anyone not just for businesses but for people who want to travel down or up to holiday locations or for even simple things like going to see parents over the Christmas Holidays.
The M6 goes through the West Midlands and is one of the busiest motorways in Great Britain.
I live in Warrington, Cheshire and we are joined to the M6 here, my parents live in Worcester and grandparents who live in Birmingham, we have to go this route and it is a nightmare of a journey. I hate it when we get near to Birmingham as to be honest it would be much quicker to get out of the car and walk down the hard shoulder. (This is only a comments and not to be advised, just to give you an impression of how slow the traffic is). We also have the infamous Thelwall Viaduct which often gets closed to high winds and there have...

Review of M6 Toll
Advantages: Detachable Speakers Disadvantages: No wall bracket
...from a LCD , actually i found it looked better than i had seen on others. The sound quality was very good also.
The tv comes with the usual remote control but a bit longer than i have seen on others with a directional dial in the centre with all usual features in a black and silver colour like the tv.
There are 9 main sources on the tv remote for different types of viewing. That appear on screen when you press Source on the remote:
1. TV
2. VIDEO
3.S-VIDEO
4. SCART 1
5. SCART 2 AV
6. SCART 2 V/C
7. VPbPr
8. D-Sub
9. HDMI
Does not come with HDMI cable.
Teletext is standard
It does come with a child lock also.
External devices that can be connected include vcr, video camera and Home game system including the New PS3 through the HDMI socket.
On top of the tv are the control buttons for on and off and stand by...

Review of Lexsor LC27M6
Advantages: Access to gym and pool, good breakfast Disadvantages: Some noise from neighbours
...I stayed at the Holiday Inn Birmingham M6, Jct. 7 last weekend. I paid £54 for two people bed and breakfast. This was direct from the Holiday Inn website and was the best I could find. It was slightly cheaper because it was advance payment, although as it was on my credit card I've still not actually paid!
It was very easy to find, literally 2 mins off the M6. While the exterior did have a slight council flat look to it, the reception area was lovely. Check in was smooth and speedy.
We had a room that seemed to be miles away, although we found a slightly quicker route later!
The room was clean and tidy. It had a desk and chair along with a small 'dining' table and chair. There was a 'room service' service although it did look rather expensive (to be expected I suppose!).
The bathroom was on the compact side, but again it was clean...
Advantages: Fantastic little camera with 12 x zoom & 10.1MP (better than TZ5), but cheaper than TZ7 Disadvantages: No HD movie mode, not very cheap
...The Panasonic Lumix TZ6 is a great little camera that I have used to compliment my large DSLR (a Nikon D90 I have also reviewed), which is too big and expensive to be taken everywhere.
Specification
The TZ6 is compact camera with 10.1 MP, which is plenty of pixels for all but the larger prints and harshest crops. This means that in normal conditions there will never be pixelation, in fact too many megapixels squashed onto a sensor can actually reduce the image quality. The most important feature of this camera is the 12x zoom, 25mm wide angle, Leica lens. Leica is a quality brand, and this lens is no exception, it produces quality images and the lens slides out of the camera quickly and smoothly. There is no lens cap, but slide across covers, as in most other digital compacts.
Design
For such a versatile camera, it is...
Advantages: Sturdiness, Ease of use, Autofocus Tracking Disadvantages: Overshadowed by the TZ7, Tries to do everything for you
...I always find it a little strange when a company releases two similar models at the same time, especially when the price difference is only around £40. The Panasonic Lumix TZ6 and TZ7 are similar stable-mates, with the TZ7 being the superior of the two.
Having said that, the extra features of the TZ7 are things I can quite comfortably live without, such as the superior video capability with stereo sound, an HDMI output, and the ability of the camera to recognise up to 15 of your friends when they appear in a picture. Why would I want that? I don't have 15 friends - and even if I did, I'm sure I could remember them myself!
The TZ6 is aimed at people who want to take nice pictures but don't really want to know how those pictures are achieved. Almost everything is designed to be automatic and intuitive, and there is some pretty...
Advantages: A great car from all angles Disadvantages: Not as many extras included as I would have liked
...I am now the proud owner of a ford focus 1.6 zetec and for the first time in many years I have actually found a car that pretty muc suits all my needs.
I have spent many a time in cars that are too big, too small, not suitable, not comfortable etc but this is everything I could ask for.
I own the three door version but the doors open widely and when the front seat is moved forward there is plenty of room to get anyone in the back, even my mother in law who is disabled. The back of this car is extremely spacious, comfortably fitting 3 large adults in.
The boot size is deceiving in that it looks pretty small but is very spacious indeed. Perfect for all those shopping bags as well as a childs pushchair.
The actual drive of this car is superb. Mine runs on unleaded and is very economical. I can get over 200 miles to £35...

Review of Ford Focus 1.6
Advantages: Powerful, Portable, Looks like a space-gun Disadvantages: Price,. Noise
...(with apologies to the Rolling Stones)
It's not a Dustbuster(tm), because that's a trademark. And besides which, to put it in the same league as a Dustbuster(tm) would be unfair. No, the Dyson Root 6 should truly be called a handheld vacuum cleaner.
"Why?" I hear you ask... well let me tell you.
Dyson, as anyone that hasn't been living under a rock for the last 10 years will know, shot to fame with their revolutionary "bagless" Hoover(tm). Only you can't call it a Hoover(tm) because that's a trademark too. Bagless technology meant that there was no loss of power as the poor vacuum motor had to suck air through an increasing mass of dirt. It effectively meant that the suction power of a vacuum cleaner was increased. Not only that, but if you made the dust collection bin clear than you could see all of the dust and fluff whirling...
Advantages: Good picture quality, LCD screen, versatility Disadvantages: None!
...It would appear, the humble digital camera is somewhat of the ?pinnacle? in reviewing on these review sites?partly because it must be one of the main products that ?external? customers use to choose a product. So, without further ado, here?s the Kodak M863. Lovely stuff.
My particular version comes in a black matt finish with a strap to place around your wrist ? being a bloke it was a far more obvious choice that the potential vivid pink option!
Now, im hardly a connoisseur when it comes to digital cameras; the only other one I?ve previously owned was a ?Premier? one. (yep, never heard of them either!) But the first thing that strikes me about this camera is the large detailed 2.7 inch LCD screen on the back of the camera. With the camera being 8.2 mega-pixels; which is probably far too many to make any difference than, say, 6 mega...
Advantages: KIDS TODAY WOULD LOVE IT Disadvantages: NOTHING

Advantages: Easy to apply, great finish Disadvantages: Too many colours, not enough nails!
...Barry M is a brand I normally associate with bold eye colours and glittery dust. But their bold colours are what attracted me to the nail varnish range. I own five colours in total and have definitely got my eye on more, so I feel like I can comment on how the range performs.
Packaging
The bottle is fairly standard - glass and transparent to allow you to see the colour within, with a screw-on lid. The bottle is rectangular and has a sturdy, thick glass base. From personal experience, I can tell you that these bottles will only take a few knocks and bumps. I did have one of my Barry M nail varnishes smash in my make-up bag.
There's no mention of ingredients on the actual packaging, but you can find a full list on their website, if that's something that is of interest to you. Their nail varnishes are all vegan friendly...
