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...

A THEATRE WITH A VIEW

Advantages: Open air Theatre does not come any better.
Disadvantages: Those hard seats, do not forget the cushions.

...OPEN AIR THEATRE AT ITS VERY BEST. The Minack Theatre is located next to Porthcurno Bay which is just off the B3315 between Lands End and Penzance. For persons like me who do not drive, there are Scheduled Bus Services from Penzance. the 300 and the 1A which both stop in Porthcurno Valley, the theatre is a further 400 meter walk up a steep hill. For full details of the Events at the Minack and further pictures visit its own web site WWW.MINACK.COM The Theatre was built, honed out of the rocks by a young woman ROWENA CADE with the only help being from the families gardener. It is now a 750 seat theatre, staging a wide range of events. Shakespear , what better setting for the Tempest than a cliff side setting. Opera, Drama, Musicals they are all there. We have visited the Minack for several Plays...

Review of The Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury

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

Theatre with a dramatic background!

Advantages: spectacular backdrop of the sea, very cheap
Disadvantages: performances only of an evening

...Previously when I have been to Cornwall and the weather has been good we have spent most of our time on the many beaches. This time however the weather was poor, with lots of wind and rain - not the sort of weather you want to be sitting on the beach in, unless you're a surfer of course and then I suppose it is ideal! This didn't really matter too much though because it gave us a chance to visit many of the famous sights and attractions. We visited lots of places including Saint Michaels Mount and the Eden Project, but probably the most charming thing that we visited was the Minack Theatre in Porthcurno. Unlike many of the other attractions it had a real Cornish feel to it and was really worth seeing. For those of you who have never heard of the Minack Theatre (and that's probably most of you) it's a really spectacular place...

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...

National Theatre's: "War Horse"

Advantages: Good ticket prices and brilliant puppetry
Disadvantages: Was over complicated in parts

...A Reflection of the National Theatre Interpretation of "War Horse" compared to the book. This play was orignally shown in 2007 and has now returned back to the stage due to demand back at the National Theatre and is booking untill January. "War Horse" is the story of a boy's love for his horse in 1912 Somerset, who are wrenched apart by World War One. The crucial issue staging a play, based upon a novel established through the eyes of a horse 'Joey', was constructing equine creatures with authentic movements, sounds and size that could be easily moved and ridden, particularly during the intense scenes of conflict. This was inventively answered by the use of "life-sized puppets" divised by the Handspring puppet company, with wooden skeletons covered in translucent fabrics and a belly filled with puppeteers who simulated...

Review of National Theatre (London)

A night at the theatre.

Advantages: Great shows..
Disadvantages: Not much leg room. lotsa stairs to upper circle..STEEP

...My partner and I went to the theatre in Tyne and wear. The Empire Theatre, Sunderland. 01915148439 We went to see The Rocky Horror Show. I booked the tickets online, and with only a few days to go to the opening nigh,t we couldn't have the tickets delivered and so were given a number to take to the box office on the night. We did this without a hitch It was easy to sort. Sunderland Empire is a lovely building to look at from the road opposite, It Is quite old fashioned loking and is situated right on the corner of the street it is well signposted to find. Some history.. Sunderland Empire started to be built in 1906 and was completed in 1907 It was originally owned by three men, one of them was a local lad who started out as a busker! It became hard to fill and closed in 1959 reopening by a corporation in 1960 It is...

Review of Sunderland Empire Theatre (Sunderland)

Great system

Advantages: great picture, great games.
Disadvantages: Can overheat, can cut the circle of death.

...The Xbox 360 is a great representation of the next gen consoles. It has a sleek look that is customizable with faceplate skins if you so choose and it is able to be placed in the normal consol position or up on it's side. In the graphics department regardless of whether you are using regular component video cables or running it to an HD tv it looks amazing. I am a fan of war, fantasy and hockey games as well as things like Dead rising and Saints row, all of which look great just running on normal cables to the back of the tv, when on my big screen it looks even better. It surpasses the wii easily and is on par with PS3, the PS3 is better for textures where the xbox is a much better system for shading and shadows. The system goes wireless on it's controllers or if you don't want to lose batteries you can buy a wired controller...
