Kick Ass Starter Pack

Advantages: Free copy of PES 5, Online play
Disadvantages: Voice Masking

...I am going to write this a two separate reviews in one because there are two different things being sold as a package. The xbox live starter pack is online enabled and allows you to play you your xbox games online and the game Pro Evolution Soccer 5 can be played offline and online on the xbox and is the best footy game of them all. Xbox Live Starter Pack Xbox live is great and if you have an xbox I definitely recommend you get it as it's well worth it, £40 is all it costs for a year so it's just the price of a new game which is great. It means you don't really have to spend much to play online. With the starter pack you get Pro Evolution Soccer 5 and an account code as well as a live headset. Although the xbox live starter pack only costs £40 you will probably have to spend more unless you already have your xbox near your PC. If...

Starter for ten

Advantages: Funny
Disadvantages: None

...Starter for ten was a DVD that my Wife bought and it had been sat on our shelf whilst we waited for our new DVD player to arrive, as we couldn't get any of our DVD's to play at all on our old one. I have to admit I wasn't that bothered if I saw it or not and was actually slightly grateful that I was managing to hold off on this one for a while! However, as soon as the new DVD player arrived my Wife insisted that we watch this as she has been wanting to for quite some time - since it was on in the cinema in fact but she hadn't managed to go and see it. She was so desperate to see it because she has the book and really wanted to see the film! So one evening we sat down to watch it with me not expecting much but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised and overall glad that I had actually ended up watching this film!! The story...

A starter for ten? Or a non starter?

Advantages: easy viewing
Disadvantages: doesn't go anywhere

...I was really looking forward to watching Starter for 10 after having read some positive reviews about in on both Dooyoo and Ciao! and also because it's British. I sat down to watch it last night with my husband, and although it was a reasonably enjoyable film, it sort of left me feeling well 'what was the point of that?' At the centre of the film is Brian Jackson (played by James McAvoy). He's an ordinary sort of lad from an ordinary seaside town in Essex who makes it good and gains a place at Bristol University. At the beginning of the film we learn that he has a huge fascination with general knowledge and loves the programme University Challenge with a passion. When he gets to Bristol he mnages to get on the team to take part in the quiz. He also falls for one of his extremely attractive team mates, whilst befriending a few other...

Magic beads

Advantages: creative activity
Disadvantages: Useless box

...Bindeez These were one of the ?must have? items on the list when Little Miss celebrated her last birthday. Being willing to oblige, but not wanting to buy a HUGE pack of something she would use once and then discard, I settled for the starter pack. ~~What is it?~~ Basically, this is a set of ?magic2 beads which join together and set with a spray of water. Unlike some similar beads, there is no need to iron to achieve results; the water seems to do that. ~~What do I get?~~ Inside the rather flimsy box, which is not at all suitable for this type of equipment, I get: 6 template designs, (including dog, ice cream), 2 trays, Bindeez spray, a 4 colour pen, 500 Bindeez (the beads), 2 display stands and an instruction leaflet. ~~How do I use it?~~ Open the box, and everything is neatly packed into a plastic tray. At this...

Bindeez? Bin, indeed.

Advantages: creative possibilities, no ironing as in Hama
Disadvantages: annoying

...My daughter had long been begging for some Bindeez, and had played with them at friend's houses, and was keen to have some at home. Bindeez are little beads that, when sprayed with water stick together. They can be used to make patterns, to templates or to the child's own design. As a product I knew little else about them other than that in 2007 they had to be recalled as containing something that could metabalise into GHB potentially, not great PR, but since then they have been relaunched and certainly seem to be popular. They are probably the main rival for HAMA beads, a similar idea, where patterns are made and then ironed to stick together. I bought this as I thought it would be a good way for her to try out bindeez, and as we do enjoy arts and crafts of all kinds. What you get This starter set is a new release and has...
