Advantages: stylish, simple, clever extra features
Disadvantages: Can't take it with me everywhere!

...Pure Tempus-1 DAB Digital Radio Plug it in and it does the rest, it automatically finds the stations and tells you all about them with scrolling text on the LCD screen. Information that be accessed includes the station name, frequency, signal quality and a text summary of the current programme. The main attraction of DAB radio to us was no static and the digital only channels such as BBC Radio 7 (comedy and stories), Passion FM (world music plus environmental ‘tit bits’). We have not been disappointed with these. The sound from the radio is excellent, not at all ‘tinny’ for such a small radio. Reception is generally All or Nothing and you can check how your local area is served by digital radio at http://www.pure-digital.com/ by typing in your post code. They will tell you which stations you will be able to receive... Read review

Advantages: PURE DIGITAL SOUND
Disadvantages: I WISH IT WAS PORTABLE

...I have been living with my Pure Digital Tempus 1 now for about a year and it's wonderful. The sound quality is just great and I am always amazed that all that sound can come from just one small speaker. It has enabled me to listen to a large number of MW/LW stations with a new quality of sound that I could only have once listened to with a slightly muffled sound or not at all. Now I can fall asleep with luxury. The Tempus is a Digital DAB radio but with the added advantage of it being an clock radio. The Tempus measures 210 mm width x 175 mm height x 110 mm depth.and has a lovely light wood surround case, this I have been told is to give a much better quality sound (please let me know if I have got that wrong) and a silver coloured front with a silver handle for easy carrying this handle also doubles as a snooze handle...

Advantages: Lovely typical Aussie Chardonnay with a bit extra!
Disadvantages: Can't think of any except maybe not sold everywhere.

...This was a FIND and no mistake! Tescos currently have 20% off all Aussie wines so I decided to try something new. I have to admit the fact that it was a lady winemaker swayed me in favour of this one as I think it' s interesting how women are beginning to break into the field, after all so many women drink wine that a woman is bound to know something about it! Also I like McGuigan Brothers' red wines so I thought with the family tradition behind her she might produce something worth trying. The label is classy and I like the name "Tempus 2", it emphasises Lisa McGuigan's stated wish to start a new generation of wine making. The cork is artificial, black and again classy looking, and the wine itself has that Chardonnay aroma of richness. It looks a pale gold colour and is bright and clear. The taste does not disappoint, it's got... Read review

Advantages: Plenty of photographs of Canning Town in the days of old, snippets of insight into various aspects of the towns history
Disadvantages: Oh that there was MORE!

...One of the "Images of England" series published by Tempus Publishing Ltd, "Canning Town" is an illustrated history of the part of London that grew from the marshes along the banks of the Thames, in the 1840's. An area which, during it's heyday, was a major industrial centre for shipbuilding (the ironworks being the employer that it seems most of my ancestors began their working life at) and garnered immigrants from all over England. Howard Bloch and Nick Harris have put together a veritable feast of photographs of a place and people long gone, changed forever by that process known as progress. Divided into 8 sections: 1. The Barking Road and Old Canning Town 2. South of the Barking Road 3. Schooldays 4. At Work 5. The Thames Ironworks 6. Leisure 7. Social Action 8. The War Years Each section tells the story...

Advantages: If you hadn't heard her before, you would enjoy her soothing vocals and relaxing tunes. Heals the heart, cultivates the soul.
Disadvantages: For those who know Enya well enough, the album can be a disappointment as she has offered nothing new. Her faster tunes are missing the magic of Orinoco Flow and Anywhere Is.

...attention to them. If they're really into her music, they would, as I had, realise that she is starting to over-emphasise background music rather that lyrical beauty. Anywhere Is shone in the clever use of poetic lines that fit seamlessly with the catchy tune. From there, we have Only If. However,it is so heavy on the music, and the chorus - repeated umpteem times as in Only Time - spoilt everything. The second track of RAIN, Wild Child (Track 2), suffered the same problem. Though the music was acceptable, and the engineered voice sounded soothing, imagine how it would feel to hear the 9-lined chorus 7 times in 3min 48sec. The other english tracks were good, and lyrics were admirable. Flora's Secret (Track 6) and Pilgrim (Track 9) are fine examples. As for non-english ones, Tempus Vernum (Track 4) was quite appalling. If you've heard... Read review

Advantages: entertaining and fun
Disadvantages: none

.... They have to battle a dark lighter and save a young girl. Pru's boyfriend Andy finds out she is a witch. (22) Déjà vu All Over Again. The girls are cursed by a sorcerer Tempus (David Carradine). They have to relive the same day over and over again. Tempus has created a time loop in which he is given multiple chances on killing the girls. Andy is also in serious trouble. ۞ My Opinion ۞ My girls and me enjoy this series and watch every episode. The stories are far fetched but fun and very entertaining. All 3 girls acting are great with some comical lines. They all have their own personalities, which show on screen and look very much like sisters. Charmed has just finished the 8th series with 9 hopefully under way. Things have changed with Pru being killed off (supposedly due to disagreements with Alyssa Milano... Read review
