Bose SoundDock Digital Music System Review

Advantages: Superb Sound, Very Loud, Ideal for Ipods
Disadvantages: not go to travel with, Extremely Expensive

...Bose SoundDock Digital Music System I happened to get this as a gift and it turned out to be quiet interesting Summary: This dock is used mainly for ipod and allows you to connet mp3 players to it and listen to high quality music via speakers. It is idle for homes and small gatherings, although I would not run a party off these. Pros: This system has terrific sound and can go very load despite its relative small size. As with almost all Bose speakers the quality is amazing, so long as the source you are playing it from is high quality it will allow the speakers to each its potential. I have a surround sound Bose set up in one of my rooms but now prefer to use this product as it is very simple to operate. Just plug the mp3 player in and press play and your set. Can't get much simpler. It also runs off a wall...

Review of Bose SoundDock Digital Music System

On the straight Duplo rails

Advantages: good rails long lasting
Disadvantages: none

...Duplo train straight rails. If your child has a basic duplo train set, or you want to create one for them then you might want to buy the set of straight rails to expand it. This pack2734 contains 6 pieces. It costs £4.99p from the Lego shop http://shop.lego.com/product/?p=2734&LangId=20 57&ShipTo=UK. It is also available at other toy shops and toy departments for around the same price. Basically this set is just the straight train track pieces you will need to buy curved pieces too if you wish to make a circuit and you will need to buy a train to run on it too. The curved track 2735 is a good compatible set to make a circuit it is available together withy the straight track for £9.96p at Amazon Lego duplo trains are suitable for a child aged between 2 and 5 although slightly younger and slightly older children will also...

Review of Lego Duplo Trains 2734 Straight Rails

Not By Rail

Advantages: will get you from A to B - eventually
Disadvantages: need I comment?

...being considered anyway). This would stop the cutting of corners. 3 – Make the rail workers akin to the police, not being able to strike. As with the rest of us, if you don’t like the conditions or your pay deal go find another job. I was incensed at the fact that in the current economic climate rail guards felt able to strike when offered a pay rise. I’m sure there are many who would welcome a pay rise rather than a cut or threat of redundancy that many are facing. 4 – The concern for the travelling public is, I am sure, how reliable the service is, not whether you have an electric door or a newly covered seat. That can wait. Let’s sort out the system first. 5 – Although 70% of rail traffic everyday is in the South East one should not forget the other major cities around the country. After all...

Review of British Rail

Rail Simulator (PC)

Advantages: Superb graphics, sound and realism
Disadvantages: Lack of route mileage and activities

...Step back to a time when the UK rail system was the envy of the world. Rail Simulator allows you to drive some of the greatest diesel, electric and steam locomotives ever built. If you're familiar with Microsoft Train Simulator then let me tell you that Rail Simulator beats it hands down with superior sound quality, blistering graphics and realistic train handling. The controls are also very similar to those of MSTS meaning you can begin driving as soon as the software is installed. My only complaint is that the developers have focused so much on the fine detail of the four routes included on the disc, that they have neglected to include route mileage. The number of activities provided is also quite low, but you'll find many more on the Official Expansion Pack and the UK Train Sim website. Definitely one to purchase...

Review of Rail Simulator (PC)

Northern Rail

Advantages: gets you from a to b
Disadvantages: overcrowding, delays, cancellations

...I too suffer daily at the hands of Northern Rail. Overcrowding, delays and cancellations are the most common problems. After three years of travelling to work using this company, i am able to say that from experience, there has been no improvement in the level of service for the £300,000,000 tax payers money that is annually chucked their way. The service provided by Northern rail is thrown into sharp contrast by that of Trans Pennine Express who have invested in new trains and actually understand the concept of customer service. I read with interest an interview with the boss of Trans Pennine who explained that, when travelling on his trains, he makes a point of announcing his presence on the train to elicit feedback from his customers. I can only imagine what would be done to the boss of Northern rail if he/she was to follow...

Review of Northern Rail, England

Excellent travel system

Advantages: Folding down, multifunctional
Disadvantages: Slightly heavy

...Being a first time Mum, I searched around all the high street shops for a functional and attractive travel system. Out of all the prams this one had the easiest folding down system, even tho it was slightly on the heavy side I could fold it down with 1 hand! The carry cot was great for the first 4 months fitting in to the pram snuggly as the seat folded flat (which I found alot of other prams didn't do) The car seat had a base that made it so easy to take the baby in and out of the car (no messing around with seat belts every time!) It is also very well padded, however it didnt come with cushioned protectors on the straps. When we were taking baby home for the first time, the midwife told us it needed them which were only £5 extra to buy. She's in the buggy part now which has three postions and harnesses which is great. Overall fab...

Review of Graco Quattro Tour Travel System

A bulky travel system

Advantages: Big Shopping basket, Suitable until baby wants to walk, Great for Ramming people out of the way (joke)
Disadvantages: Very Heavy, Bulky and Hard to find somewhere to put the pushchair when not using it.

...I bought this travel system because i thought it looked good, boy was i wrong. Ever since i brought it i hated but my partner wouldnt let me take it back because he liked it. -Car Seat- My son never liked the car seat so it didnt get used much. It scrunched him up to much and even though they say you can use it until the baby is 29lbs my son would fit in it when he got to 20lbs. The only good thing about the car seat was that it was easy to fit into a car and onto the pushcchair to make it a travel system. -Pushchair- As i said above my son didnt like it in the carseat so i had to put him in the pushchair from about 2weeks old, this pushchair is ment to be suitable from birth. The strap did not fit properly so many times i found that my son had wriggled out from them, this is not good especially when you start having your...

Review of Graco Quattro Tour Travel System

Simply the best light rail system!

Advantages: Frequent, fast, clean, easy to use and get around, excellent accessibility
Disadvantages: Lack of staff at stations, pricing not as good value as it used to be

...The Tyne and Wear Metro system is without a doubt one of the best ways to get to where you're wanting to be, should you live in the North East of England. For over 9 years, I've relied upon this fairly frequent (and mostly on time) service to get me from home to my High School, then to Newcastle College and finally to work in Gateshead. Overview of the System -------------------------------- If you've ever travelled on the London Underground then you should already be fairly familiar with the concept. The Tyne and Wear Metro system is not like a regional train service which only stops at fairly major rail stations; most towns in the North East has it's own dedicated Metro station which is served by modern, clean and accessible two-carriage trains every day. In the past few years, the system extended to Sunderland, allowing thousands...

Review of Tyne and Wear Metro

Best Travel System but for how long?

Advantages: all in one solution
Disadvantages: Heavy and large when folded

...We bought the Graco Quattro Tour Travel System after looking at everything on the market comparing costs, accessories, weight etc. This travel system was for my first child so I had no previous experience to help me. The whole concept of the travel system is revolutionary; my mom was so impressed. Having the car seat/infant carrier which effectively turns the buggy into a pram and also means that your baby who has fallen asleep in the car can be effortlessly moved into the buggy, is a marvelous invention! We bought the Graco fro Babies R Us in January 2005 for £190. It came with an auto base, weather shield, foot muff and changing bag (the only thing I have had to buy additionally is a parasol). The autobase is a brilliant idea. You fix it in the car once and the infant carrier just clicks in place. No messing around...
