Advantages: Sorry, can't think of any
Disadvantages: Too many to list

...INTRO I do nearly all of my shopping over the Internet - it is great for finding bargains without trekking round the shops for hours, you can often find unusual things, plus you get them delivered to your home. Simple! Most delivery services I have dealt with are happy to leave parcels with neighbours or to deliver to me at work. I have rarely encountered any difficulties until recently when I had the misfortune of dealing with a couple of retailers who somewhat misguidedly think Initial City Link (hereafter known as ICL) provide a delivery service. THE COMPANY According to their web site (city-link.co.uk), ICL were founded in 1969 and pioneered same day and next morning delivery services. They are part of Rentokil Initial plc, although it would appear that Rentokil’s expertise hasn’t been used to rid ICL of bugs... Read review

Advantages: Better than millionaire!
Disadvantages: Would be useless without Annie

...I think you either love or hate the Weakest Link. In case you’ve been living under a stone for the past 8 months The Weakest Link is a mean, cruel quiz show hosted by Anne Robinson. A group are asked questions to get money and at the end of each round the group vote somebody off. They usually vote off the person who has answered the least questions correctly. Once there are only two people left they are alternately asked questions, whoever gets the most correct wins all the money that the group built up. Anne Robinson is very rude she has various famous phrases including “You are the weakest Link – Goodbye!” and “Do you realize that there are 8 million people watching some complete dunces!” As you can tell Anne Robinson wouldn’t know manners if they hit her in the face. But that’s... Read review

Advantages: The new "Four Swords", near perfect port
Disadvantages: Has gotten even harder through the years

...You know...with it being a remake and all. :/ Note: This is a review for the GBA version. The third installment in the Legend of Zelda series is back and this time on the GBA along with a brand new multiplayer adventure, The Four Swords. What we have here is a Zelda game that plays very similarly to the original Legend of Zelda. But there is much more to it than that. This time around we have a new enemy to deal with Agahnim. Agahnim has decided to imprison the 7 Sages in the Dark World and take over Hyrule so he can have it for himself. Now of course our hero Link comes to save the day. In LttP you play as a Link, a normal everyday boy who is just trying to get some sleep when he hears something telling him to hurry to Hyrule Castle to save the one who is speaking. Yes, you guessed it Zelda has yet again been captured this time... Read review

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: they lose stuff and are totally incompetent

...As the proprietor of a mail order company, I have a lot of experience with UK courier companies; after bad experiences with Parcel Farce and Night Fright, we switched to Shitty Link about one year ago, and I can honestly say this company is by far the worse courier service in the UK. It's not just the fact that they seem to regularly loose stuff, do not come to collect parcels when we have booked them in, or deliver goods to the wrong customer, which of course all very compelling reasons not to ever use City Link, but it's also their inability to sort anything out, once they have screwed up. Let me explain some of the horrors with City Link They lost a parcel containing about £400 worth of goods, and then denied that they ever picked it up, so we were unable to claim anything from their "insurance" They lost about £1500 worth...
