FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

Tuesday's Child

Advantages: Okay holiday read.
Disadvantages: Predictable, characters not likeable.

...Louise Bagshawe's latest novel, 'Tuesday's Child' is along the lines of her previous book - 'Monday's Child'. It is not just the title that is similar, she once again portrays the female lead as having her fair share of flaws. While in 'Monday's Child' the character had issues with her weight, this time she is a tomboy who doesn't want to grow up. Lucy Evans shares a flat with her old buddy Ollie, whom she met travelling. While Ollie has grown up and got a "real" job as a lawyer, Lucy is desperate to cling on to her youth: playing computer games until all hours, gorging on junk food, following her favourite rock bands and backpacking around the world. Life with Ollie is cushy and Lucy is in no hurry to change it. Then one day her perfect world falls apart. Firstly Ollie announces he is marrying his nightmare of a girlfriend...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

Review of Panasonic DVD-S54

Tuesday is the best day of the week.....

Advantages: Beautifully written and touching.
Disadvantages: It is too short....

...I recently read, and loved, a book called The Five People You Meet in Heaven, written by American author Mitch Albom. I loved this book so much that I rushed out to buy another of his literary offerings: Tuesdays with Morrie. A Old Man, A Young Man and Life's Greatest Lessons and I wasn't disappointed. Tuesdays with Morrie was published 8 years before Albom wrote The Five People You Meet in Heaven and the book tells the true story of his relationship with his old college Social Psychology professor: Morrie Schwartz. In the 1970's when Albom was a student, Morrie was his favorite professor and they regularly spent time together outside of classes. Sadly, after he graduated Albom lost touch with his old professor and he did not hear from him until years later, while he was in his 30's, by pure chance. During these lost years...

Review of Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, a Young Man and Life's Greatest Lesson - Mitch Albom

Tuesdays with Morrie. Not Morrie-bund

Advantages: True story of a fascinating man
Disadvantages: True story of a fascinating man

...the author to take one last class together. The lessons take place on the same day each week (you may be able to work out which one yourselves) and continue as Morries health deteriorates. My expectations were not high as upon hearing the word 'true story' I usually expect tedium, and much hype about things that although perhaps interesting are not the stuff of genuine entertainment. Everyone has fascinating lives, and faces amazing challenges, so it has always interested me to find many people seem to think that seeing a film or reading a story which is ?real? makes it more worthy than a piece of fiction. How many true stories would be written if they were in fact fiction? Not many. You get much better value out of someone?s imagination when it comes to stories. Tuesdays with Morrie is a perfect case in point. As I say a fine story, about...

Review of Tuesdays with Morrie - Mitch Albom

Ruby Tuesday

Advantages: lovely fragrance, deep without being overpowering, subtly romantic
Disadvantages: bottles is a bit awkward to pop in a small bag

.... As with all perfumes: get a good squirt from a tester to try for yourself prior to purchase This perfume always makes me think of the stones song Ruby Tuesday... "Who could hang a name on you" "When you change with every new day" "Still I'm gonna miss you"...

Review of Paul Smith London Eau De Parfum Spray for Her

TUESDAY

Advantages: It's short
Disadvantages: It's not short enough

...I said I wasn't going to do any more challenges, but...... I lied. purebitch has set another challenge and this time the idea is to catalogue a typical day in your life. I've decided to document a Tuesday. Why? - Why indeed. 6.58am : I give up trying to get a little more sleep before the alarm goes off at 7am and leap out of bed, raring to go. 7.01 am : I remember that I haven't got anywhere to be raring to go to, so I relax and take it easy. 7.06am: After a quick visit to the bathroom for a 'single fish' and a sloosh around the face with cold water, I'll have a quick look at the news to see what's happening in Iraq. 7.30am: I'll take a walk up towards the town centre and meet Mrs p on her way home - she gets up before me and nips up to Asda for milk, bread and a paper etc. 7.45am: I wander down to the river...

A Taboo Pay Per View?

Advantages: A couple of good matches and performances.
Disadvantages: Bias voting tactics, stupid matches, lots of time wasting.

...of the time and hogging the coveted Championships. When the WWE announced their first ever 'fan interactive' pay per view in the early part of October in 2004, I met it with a much cynicism as I would have with any of the companies 'pre determined' events. I knew from the start that the commentators, wrestlers and general managers (or the on screen bosses) would be 'lightly persuading' the fans into which stipulation or wrestler to vote for during each match. WHAT WAS TABOO TUESDAY? Now known as Cyber Sunday (because they changed it to a Sunday night...it would look kind of foolish calling it Taboo Tuesday now), the original idea for Taboo Tuesday's interactivity would be that the fans created the bouts that evening, via the internet and the fans who attended the live show that night in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. For each of the eight...
