Played with every sunny day and a few other days besides

Advantages: A great fun toy
Disadvantages: yes, it is another lump of plastic

...I bought this water play table on the very first day of the Summer holidays 2008 - it was at the bargain price of £12 at a big Tesco store, however even at the current price of £24.99 at Toys R Us (similar on Amazon) this play table is an excellent buy. I should confess that when I bought it I seriously considered hiding it from my husband expecting a "why on earth have you bought them another lump of plastic?" but even he thinks it is a good item, and the children loved it straight away - phew! What you get When I first opened the box I was a little disappointed as the table came in pieces, which had to be assembled and didn't look anything special. Once assembled, however, it looked a lot better. You get a water wheel with a detachable water reservoir, a pourer and two little sail boats. The table is made of moulded...

Our Table Table at Carlisle Bordergate

Advantages: Unique design works well, quality pub food, reasonable prices.
Disadvantages: Close proximity to motorway makes outdoor eating a no no for me, tiny loo's.

...the que, as you would be spilling out into the bar. After choosing a seat, we were quickly approached by another member of staff, who took our drinks orders and made sure we were ok. The menu's are already on the tables, so we were left to decide on our meals for 10 minutes, and then approached again. I found the service to be very good, with extremely pleasant and friendly staff, who checked regularly if everything was ok, without being intrusive, and anticipated in good time when we might be ready for service. There was definitely music playing while we were visiting, but as I can not remember any particular songs I would say it's unobtrusive background music, though I'd definitely guess pop/chart music rather than pianist lounge music! The Food The menu is typical bar food. There's a lunchtime, main and kids menu, and Sunday...

Review of Table Table

I'd recommend a table at Table Table!

Advantages: Food presentation, good seating and decor, portion size, quality of food, vegetarian dishes
Disadvantages: Temperature of the restaurant, long waiting time, extras that weren't stated

...Yesterday was my dad's birthday, and for the evening we decided it would be a good idea to go out as a family to Table Table for our dinner. So after getting ready and changing into my Ark Clothing dress that I'd bought a couple of months ago, but hadn't got round to wearing, we made our way to the restaurant - at around 6:15. The Exterior When we got there it was around 6:30, and the six of us - My dad, my mom, my sister, my grandma, my grandad and me - made our way inside the restaurant to take our seats and wait for my auntie and uncle to arrive. The outside of the restaurant was very typical, but very nice looking. There were two, maybe three, benches outside for people to sit on in the nice weather if they decided to, and I pointed out to my mom that it looked like a restaurant you'd see abroad. I'm not actually sure why...

Wii Play

Advantages: See Review
Disadvantages: See Review

...pigeons, (which are quite hard to hit) and even spaceships. On every level there are ducks that you can hit for extra points. To play this it?s simply a case of point and shoot using just the Wii remote only. Find Mii: This game is quite boring in my opinion and you have to find pairs of matching Miis, (your little avatar thingys), or find the fastest Mii or the odd ones out etc. The odd Mii out round is a bit weird at first because it isn?t immediately apparent but once you crack it it?s quite easy. There seem to be a lot of levels, (I?ve reached forty something), but I don?t know how many. This is a simple point and click arrangement using just the Wii Remote. Table Tennis: This game is quite difficult but strangely addictive. I can?t say I really enjoyed playing it but I couldn?t stop playing it either. The thing that makes it tricky is...

The Captains Table, Molyvos, Lesvos.

Advantages: Wonderful food, service, with great view.
Disadvantages: Nothing to write about.

...Google ?The Captain?s Table? Lesvos and you can read the following: ?The Captain?s Table is reputed to be one of the finest of its kind in all Greece - don?t just take our word for it - see what ?The Lonely Planet?, ?The Rough Guide?, and the famous American ?Frommers? and numerous other international guide books have to say.? We have just been to Lesvos for two weeks and we ate at The Captains Table 6 nights out of the 14 and 1 night we could not get a table. I add that we where a group of 7 of us so finding a table for 2 is a lot easier. During the course of our stay we must have had everything on the menu. They have a special every day of the week, salmon, hake, stuffed pork. Our menu and cost for one evening was as follows: Mushroom a le grec, which Ann and Dougie had and Ann had each night we went. Tzatziki...

Toning Tables that exercise and vibrate!

Advantages: Fun way to get in shape, and of course there's the vibrating table !
Disadvantages: Possibly the cost, depending on where you go

...Ever thought about using Toning Tables? Wondered about toning up and trimming down all those wobbly bits! I have discovered this lovely place to visit where I can relax while shaping up! There's even a vibrating table! What Slender You says: Slender You® has been in business since 1983 as the world's largest motorized fitness system. Since the opening of the first Slender You® Figure Salon in Orlando, Florida over 20 years ago, more than 3,000 salons have opened worldwide with locations throughout Europe and in all of the fifty states including the Caribbean. So on with the review! On a friends recommendation I booked in for a free trial session at 'Slender You Ltd' in Colchester Essex. I was requested to take a small towel, and wear long-legged loose or stretchy trousers/ joggers/ leggings. I arrived, parked right outside...

Table Football. A good game

Advantages: Good game. Fun. Good Graphics.
Disadvantages: Takes some getting used to

...Ok so i wasnt too sure about tis game at first. Im not the best at table football on an actual table, so playing it in simulation did'nt seem the best idea, but something was telling me to give it a go. I was not too sure wether it would work well on screen and how the controls would work. But i have to say im pleasantly surprized that this is actually a good game. Main Features: Fast paced table football action Create your own team of Table Football players Play using official rules or create bespoke rules to suit the game Partnership with ITSF Play on official tables Firstly you are greeted with a set of options enabling you to set-up games using any of the Table footballing rule sets, you may select to play from a number of pitches, also deciding you're team, the opponents and the weight/ material of the ball you wish...

Lets play

Advantages: Fun to play, 9 games to play
Disadvantages: none

...different characters, table tennis, match mii's pose, laser hockey, billiards, fishing, cow racing and a tank game. With all these games you can play with up to 2 people. My favourite games are the shooting range game, billiards and the cow racing game. The shooting range game is a game where you can play by yourself or with another person. You use the wii remote and aim at your television screen aiming at targets. The targets change through the game and go from ordinary looking archey like targets to shooting at alien spaceships (UFO's) that are trying to take people up into space. The game is fun on your own as you are trying to beat your personal records and also trying to earn a higher medal. But this game is much better with two players as you try to beat each other at shooting down the tagets and getting more points. The cow...

Playing at the King's Table

Advantages: Easy to learn basics, lots of scope to experiment, fun to play
Disadvantages: some "stalemate" conditions can annoy

...How do you relax after a hard day?s rape and pillage? A lesser-known fact about the Vikings is that they used to play a board game entitled hnefatafl (which means ?King?s table?), a forerunner of the game of chess. It is a game for two players. I bought a boxed edition of this game as a souvenir from the Viking Exhibition in York a long time ago and have played it, albeit on an infrequent basis, since. It is very easy to learn the basic rules of play but it can be very demanding if you want to play well. The equipment My boxed set is beautifully produced and a pleasure to use, but if you just want to try out the game, it is relatively easy to make your own board and use counters or draughts for the pieces. If you enjoy it then you can hunt around for a set you like. There are a number of variants of the game but I shall...

Leapfrog Bilingual Leapstart Learning Table

Advantages: Encourages clear language, motor skills, variety of stimulation
Disadvantages: Takes up a little room.

...I love this toy! I know it was meant to be for my 1-year-old daughter but I love pressing all those different buttons just as much as she does. :-D It plays 50 songs and melodies in English and French. The lights are very bright and appealing to babies. There is a lot of different activities for the little ones some of them aimed at developing motor skills. The babies can spin, slide, push, pull, open and close things. The open and close especially goes down a treat with a small compartment underneath to hide treats in or sometimes Mummy's house key! Great is too that the instruments on the table play their actual sound by pressing them in various ways. There is so many sounds going on that I am glad for the two-step-volume control although the songs really have not even started annoying me yet, not even when playing for 15...
