Advantages: gives you an extra 1.8 meters on any USB product
Disadvantages: none

...that could connect my headset to the computer and let me use it, and this is what I did. I trudged down to my local PC world and paid a little money for a 1.8 meter Belkin Pro Series USB Extension Cable and was very very happy with it when I got home. It is very well made with a nice thick rubber protective rapping over the wire inside so unless you cut it with a knife its not going to be damaged if you full on it a little or even a allot. It supports all standard USB ports with its well made male plug (the bit that goes into the computer) and on the other end of the cable has a nice thick female port (the bit that you will stick your USB device in) I have had no problems with this cable at all, it doesn't suffer from any lag and because it has a thick cable it doesn't snap or damage if you catch it with you feet while its laying on the floor...

Advantages: Sublime
Disadvantages: None

...When I say that my grandmother's maiden name was Davies, and that she was the last person in the family who had any understanding of the Welsh language, you will probably understand why I love Welsh choral music so much. Well, apart from the fact that Wales is truly the land of song, with the best history of choral music in the entire world., that is! This CD (produced by EMI and Music for Pleasure) has a wide range of Welsh Male voice Choirs from all over Wales. The competition between the different choirs and indeed the different parts of Wales are fiercely competitive. But the strong, intense rivalry is always friendly. Well, MOST of the time, that is! The songs on this CD (I am ,of course, listening to it as I write this review!) are all perfectly sung and perfectly accompanied, as the producers have chosen the cream of Welsh... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, easy to use, transportable.
Disadvantages: A little on the chunky side, space an issue

...A USB pen stick is as much a necessity these days as a pen. With more and more laptops not posessing floppy disk drives, USB mass storage has become the only way to transport documents, music and pictures around, safely quickly and easily. No need to worry any more about filling up the paltry 1.44mb on a floppy disk. The standard flash drive capacity is anything from 128mb to 1gb. As I was going to be off to uni at the end of the month, I thought now was the time to be investing in one of these, as I would no longer have the opportunity to pinch my parents'. However, with a whole host of different pen drives, boasting similar features, but in many different shapes, sizes and colours, it was a minefield to try and decide which one I wanted. Fortunately, on a trip to America last month, this decision was made for me, as... Read review

Advantages: Excellent Choice of Songs
Disadvantages: None

...This CD is excellent. I have always been a fan of Male Voice choirs (not just because I'm welsh) because the overall harmony is gorgeous!! I saw this CD advertised recently on the TV and my parents bought it for me. I was not disappointed. There is an excellent selection on traditional welsh ballads with past pop hits etc. People often mistake Male Voice Choirs as just a 'Welsh Thing' that they won't nessarily enjoy, I think they would be pleasently suprised if they bought it. Being the age of 20, not many of the younger generation appreciate music different to hip-pop, punk-rock or rap but as I was brought up surrounded by jazz, classical, brass etc, I have a much wider taste, thankfully. This is a CD that I play quite often and enjoy every time. The Tracks on this CD: 1) Sailing 2) Abide With Me 3) Jerusalem 4) Land... Read review

Advantages: Cleverly thought out, lots of twists
Disadvantages: The ending could be seen as predictable

...Between Males is Fiona Walker's latest book and quite simply one of her best. It is a wonderfully good read and keeps you gripped throughout, i certainly couldn't put it down!!! Between Males is about a woman called odette, who decides to leave her high powered job to open a restaurant but when a mysterious bloke invests in it, she definately gets more than she bargained for. This book is not a conventional romance but odette wins over the reader's love and her funky and certainly bizarre friends got me laughing!!! Its funny, brilliantly put together with some of odette's friends being characters in Walker's other books and i promise you, you wont be bored!... Read review

Advantages: smells gorgous
Disadvantages: price

...From a women point of view this is one of the most alluring male fragances available. The over powering smell of brut or old spice have made way for a more subtle but masculine scent which wont knock you or your girlfriend out at twelve paces. The only negative thing you can say about the fragance is it is a bit pricey but it makes up for this by coming in a bottle which has a defined male shape unlike the usual boring and cheap looking cylinder container. I think all men should use this who want to pull and succeed and not knock the women out with their dads brut.... Read review

Advantages: Sexy smell, long lasting, great design, women love it!
Disadvantages: none

...I first bought this aftershave for my partner over 2 years ago, and neither of us have tired of it since. I bought it after a friend recommending it and I am so glad that I did! THE PACKAGING Ok, the baked bean tin exterior isn't perhaps the most original casing for a fragrance (although perhaps a useful storage pot!), but the actual bottle of JPG Le Male has become an icon because of it's unique, sexy design. It looks great on display, and I even have an empty bottle as an ornament on my shelf, alongside an empty JPG Classique bottle (the female equivalent, also in an attractive body-shaped bottle but in a dusky pink!). It looks much more stylish than many other perfume bottles around. THE SMELL Firstly, it is distinctive. I work in a bar and even in the smoky atmosphere I can still tell immediately when a customer... Read review

Advantages: Snap on fittings, very easy, very good.
Disadvantages: None, unless you run over them.

...OK, a review on a double male connector for a garden hose, I must be mad! The daft thing is, they are very useful, if you have a garden hose with snap on fit fittings, then you can borrow your neighbours hose. If you don't hve one of these, then you are forced with the choice of cobbling something together with bits of pipe & Jubilee clips, or buying a longer hose.

Advantages: Have plenty of USB ports at any time
Disadvantages: Can be a bit of a pain when it comes to the power supply.

...It seems like ages ago that I had a PC that did not have enough USB ports and the two that it did have were discreetly hidden around the back of the tower. At first this was not a problem as I hardly ever used the USB ports. As my computer grew so did the need to access these USB ports, this soon became an annoyance as I kept having to turn the tower around to access the ports and plug another device in, this also meant sacrificing whatever was in the port at that time. I began thinking the only choice I would have would be to get a new PC that had four USB ports, two of which now seemed to be positioned on the front of the towers of the newer computers. A friend suggested that I should look at getting myself a USB hub, as this would not only add to the amount of USB ports that are available to me, but would make accessing... Read review

Advantages: Already familiar with many characters
Disadvantages: Longer, but not as gripping as previous novels

...Between Males is written by Fiona Walker. I have read all of her previous novels, and couldn't resist taking a look at this one. As I expected, I found it almost impossible to put down. I just constantly wanted to find out what happened next. The main character of this story is a woman named Odette. She had appeared in the novel Snap Happy aswell. Many characters first mentioned in Snap Happy and Kiss Chase were featured in this story. (e.g. Pheobe Fredericks and Felix Sylivan, Saskia Seaton and Stan, Fliss and Dylan, Mungo- all from Kiss Chase. Juno Glenn and Jay, Elsa and Euan Lydia and Finlay-all from Snap Happy.) Anyway, back to the plot. Odette has packed in her job and decided to invest a lot of money into opening a restaurant. She joins together with a man called Calum Forrester to set the business up, but Calum plans to wreck... Read review
