The Heart of the Hyde

Advantages: See review for details
Disadvantages: See review for details

...As a child, I regularly visited the Isle of Wight for a holiday and loved it. It has been many years since I last went, so I decided to book up a holiday with my husband, parents and younger siblings through The Sun Newspaper summer holiday deals to visit my childhood. Through this, we were allocated 'Lower Hyde Holiday Park' in Shanklin, Isle of Wight. Before we went, I did have a look on the internet for any reviews or information about the park, yet I came across minimal pages with anything to offer, so I thought that I would start the ball rolling and write a review about my own experience. ******The Area****** The Isle of Wight is a popular holiday resort in the United Kingdom, attracting many groups of varying ages from all over. It not only boasts amazing scenery and a peaceful break, but also attractions for all ages...

HYDE PARKS OWN WINTER WONDERLAND

Advantages: Pretty Lights, right on top of the tune station, the aroma of wine!
Disadvantages: Expensive, crowded, too dark, too far.

...Hyde Park - Winter Wonderland 2007 At Christmas 2007, we decided to take the family to Hyde Park for the Winter Wonderland Experience. It had been very well advertised and the flyer portrayed an image similar to what you might expect in Austria or Germany during the festive season. The website looked impressive too, so how could we not go and enjoy the festive delights of London. Hyde Park is One of London's finest landscapes, covering 350 acres of park land. In the summer months, there is something for everyone with over 4,000 trees, a lake, Princess Diana Memorial Fountain, a meadow, horse rides, abundance of street entertainers and the obligatory ice cream van; it is easy to forget you're in the middle of London. Amidst the fumes and smog of London, the park is a place for fresh air, vibrant seasonal colours and sun...

Review of Hyde Park Winter Wonderland Experience

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...

The White Knight to the rescue on those wet summer days

Advantages: User friendly, light weight and good load capability
Disadvantages: C rated so not he most economical

...As most people in Britain own a washing machine, many, like me, probably struggle to get there washing dry, especially with the glorious sunshine and top quality weather that is constantly warming our cheery faces, (that was sarcasm by the way), so the invention of the clothes/tumble dryer was a god send. So when my old dryer suddenly decided to stop blowing hot air, whilst also gaining a sort of stutter, I decided to go on the hunt for another similar one, coming across a brand called White Knight. But, to add to my confusion, I discovered that there are several types of dryers, such as spin dryers, which simply spin the clothes inside so fast that they eventually dry. Then there?s the condenser dryer, which passes warm air through the clothes and turns the heated air into water vapour sending the vapour into a storage hold, thus...

A Bit Jekyll and Hyde!

Advantages: Good story, some ethical debate, some great characters
Disadvantages: Predictable and stereotypical in places: doesn't live up to its full potential

...arguing with Diana a couple of hours before her death. However, Diana runs the local abortion clinic and has been a target of so-called "pro-life" protesters - their "protests" including small bombs and death threats. Amid all this tumult is Megan, Diana and Frank's daughter. She studies at a local Colorado college, but lives in dorms, and had an argument with her mother on the morning of the day she died. Megan feels incredibly guilty about this and it doesn't help that her father is the main suspect or that they have to move out of their home, which has now become a crime scene. On top of all this, Megan has her own problems: she's being stalked by her high school boyfriend, who is unable to cope with the fact that she broke up with him. Elisabeth Hyde focuses on the emotions and suspicions of the family, rather than turning this story...

Review of The Abortionist's Daughter - Elisabeth Hyde

I wouldn't Hyde behind the sofa.

Advantages: Slight gore
Disadvantages: Script, director, actors

...I was in Blockbusters browsing through the DVDs for some decent deals. I came across this film "Jekyll + Hyde" which looks like the sort of film i generall tend to like. A gory, low-ish budget horror film. So i bought it in the 4 for £10, therefore costing me £2.50. (This is pre-owned). *****Appearance***** The case is bright white with a hand on holding a small medical instrument dripping with blood. This is a relevant picture to the film as there is a moderate amount of gore in it. This is one of the best things about this DVD, the front cover looks very clean and sharp. There are 2 taglines on the case. These are "Everyone has a monster within" and "Think you know the story? Think again." Again, these are accurate for the film and are both quite thought provoking. The idea that everyone has a monster within is the idea that...

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...

~ THE WHITE DELIGHT ~

Advantages: Excellent tatse, Great quality wrapping, Nice smell
Disadvantages: none

...~ THE WHITE DELIGHT ~ After seeing this on this week?s product of the week last night I decided to give it a try. I don?t actually eat a lot of chocolate unlike most females and i prefer sweets, as most chocolate bars make me feel ill after. Saying this though i have always liked Kit Kat bars. I prefer white chocolate to normal and I love kit kats so thought I would enjoy one of these bars. White chocolate is defiantly my favourite kind, so after buying a bar from my local shop last night I was intrigued to see if it was any better than the original Kit Kat bar. I can say it was thanks to Ciao that I managed to try one even though I have seen them in the shops for a while. The bar itself is also very eye catching so I think I would have got one at some point. They were set in a large white box right by the till so i would be...

Review of Nestlé Kit Kat White Chocolate

White Hot

Advantages: Some wonderful writing
Disadvantages: A few too many coincidences for my taste

...Crime thrillers aren't usually a genre known for their excellent writing, unless I'm reading the wrong books. Whilst there are some exciting writers working within it, they're not generally the kind of books you'd pick up for the quality of their writing, more for the quality of the story. That alone makes Jim Kelly's "Death Wore White" something of a surprise and something well worth picking up, as he manages both. One wintry evening on the Norfolk coast, DI Shaw and DS Valentine are investigating a report of a toxic container which is about to wash ashore. At the beach, they find something more than they expected when a dead man floats ashore in an inflatable raft. Worse is to come when they investigate a queue of traffic stuck behind a fallen pine tree to find a murder victim in the driver's seat of the first car. There are very few...
