Review of Home Improvement - Series 2 - Complete (Box Set) (DVD)

Home Improvement

Advantages: Excellent value for money and thee greatest comedy
Disadvantages: none

...Home Improvement is Thee greatest comedy to hit our screens. Home Improvement is about the life of Tim Taylor (Tim Allen) and his family. Tim Taylor has his own cable tv show called "Tool Time" which is co-hosted by his loyal friend Al Borland, who is always the butt of Tim's jokes. Tim is a mans man, on the show he builds his idea of the mans domain etc. ie the all mans bathroom with a Tv and a reclyning toilet seat. Tim has great ideas and can talk the talk when it comes to his building projects but more than usual he fails misserably when he has completed his tasks by him adding to much power or putting engines into things that just werent meant to be messed with. eg - puts a jet engine into a lawnmower (loses control due to high speed) - adding more power to nearly all the household appliances. Tim's lives with his wife Jill...

Premier Inn, Charing Cross Glasgow

Advantages: Close to town and all amenities
Disadvantages: none

...I have never stayed in the Premier Inn before, but I felt I had to share my experience of the past weekend. The staff in both reception and the restaurant were fantastic, they were really helpful and made you feel right at home. The room and bathroom were both spotless, warm and the freeview television meant that my daughter didn't miss her soaps while she was away. The bed was both big and comfortable and we didn't have any trouble getting to sleep. We opted for the breakfast deal and we were not disappointed, the food was well cooked and warm there was also plenty of choice. Access to the hotel was excellent for both able bodied and non-able bodied people, we didn't have a wheelchair but we did have a six month old baby and a pram, and even though it is situated next to Charing Cross rail station we didn't hear a thing from...

Review of Premier Travel Inn Glasgow - City Centre (Charing Cross), Glasgow

Game Improvement

Advantages: It might entertain for about 10 seconds
Disadvantages: Rubbish. Just rubbish.

...The rule for creating film and TV tie-ins, is (usually) to program a formulaic platform game. As a result, they all look and play much the same. It wouldn't surprise me if they were the same, just with slightly different graphics! Home Improvement is no different. Based upon the (also formulaic) US sitcom, it is a platform game. Hurrah. Take control of Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor as he works his way across TV studios (oh, how original!) looking for his tools, armed with some other tools. See how many game clichés he comes across as the game progresses. Collect items which you lose when hit (Sonic). You can swing across gaps on a rope-thing (Batman, Bionic Commando). In fact, almost every part of the game has been 'borrowed' from somewhere else. The graphics look like they've been stolen from Global Gladiators for a start...

Review of Home Improvement (SNES)

Premier DS-5080

Advantages: Cost-effective, lightweight, excellent photo quality
Disadvantages: Disadvantages!?!

...Back in March, I was in need of a digital camera, but was looking for one that wouldn't break the bank...Ideally, the Premier DS-5080 5 Mega Pixel camera is on the market then! For a camera of such image quality, I was somewhat taken aback that the retail price was just shy of the £100 mark. Excellent! The first thing that instantly struck me was the weight of it. Lightweight, if possible to say so, is an understatement! Its thin silver body with sliding lens cover and flat LCD monitor ensure that there is little "excess" materials used in the making of it. As the image of the product shows, it's streamline look is very attractive and pleasing to look at and use. Sliding the lens cover will switch it on and then you have the fun of the very straight-forward menu, that I must confess, I was able to use and navigate around...

Review of Premier DS-5080

Premier, not perfect

Advantages: Location, customer service
Disadvantages: Electrical faults, noise

...Like a lot of people I travel regularly for work. Unlike most of them, I also work in the quasi-public-sector and feel obliged therefore to restrict the expense claims to reasonable limits. I have actually been known to stay in a Youth Hostel on a business trip - but generally I opt for what have become known as 'budget hotels' - you know the ones: Premier Inn (a.k.a. Travelinn as was), Travelodge, Innkeeper's Lodge. These are the earthbound equivalents of budget airlines. No frills. But you do expect them to deliver on the basics. Premier is probably my favourite of the three. Maybe that's because they've followed up their rebranding with a full-scale refurb of all their hotels. (Maybe it's because my most usual branch of the competition has particular limitations.) The point of this long lead in is to establish that I...

Review of Premier Travel Inn Manchester - City Centre (GMEX), Manchester

Travel Inn for a premier Night's Sleep

Advantages: Easily navigatable website - great rooms
Disadvantages: None

...Premier Travel Inns are great if you are wanting a stop for one or two nights and we use them quite a lot. I used this paticular Travel Inn when I was going to a family party and didn't want to travel the 60 miles back home afterwards. PREMIER TRAVEL INNS There have been Premier Travel Inns in this country now for over twenty years and there are now 500 hotels across Britain to choose from. One of the advertising statements from Premier is "A good night guaranteed" The company are so confidant in this pledge that they offer your money back if you don't enjoy a good night's sleep; we have never had to take them up on this offer!! PRICING It is too difficult to be precise about the cost of the rooms as they vary from Inn to Inn and depending on the days you require them. The rates at this paticular Travel...

Review of Premier Travel Inn Two Mills, Wirral

Premier Inn - Premier Staff - Happy Enough

Advantages: Price, Location
Disadvantages: No room Service

...and just a stop over we didn?t enquire into anything else that the hotel may offer but I would definitely recommend this to people looking for a weekend break or a wee stop over like ourselves because that?s what its obviously for, its not a resort or holiday place its just somewhere to lay your head, have a few wee drinks and probably some nice food and when they have offers even better, our offer of £29 was excellent as the normal price for a room for a night is £59 so technically we got 2 nights for the price of 1 and saved ourselves a pound woohoo?.I actually think that offer is still running with various locations from the Premier Inn Hotels just check out their website www.premierinn.com Thanks for reading and I appreciate any and all comments received....

Review of Premier Inn, Belfast

Weymouth Premier Inn

Advantages: handy for ferry, beach, town, County Park
Disadvantages: none

.... BOOKING ++++++++ I always book our rooms online as this is the easiest way to do it. You find the hotel that you want, then check availability for the required dates. You can then choose the type of room that you want and reserve it. You only pay for the room upon arrival and it can be cancelled as close as 1pm on the day that you arrive. We always book a double non-smoking room. You can check in after 2pm and do not need to vacate until 12pm the following day. If you are travelling for business purposes then you can open an account with them and charge the room to your business card. They will then take payment by direct debit around 10 days after you have received the statement. My husband is a courier and stays away from home sometimes, so we always use one of these cards. COSTS ++++++ Premier Inns are usually cheaper...
