Amazon.co.uk Review - Wii Sports:
In a nutshell:
As if the idea of five games in one package didn’t sound a good enough deal on its own the Wii’s best multiplayer compendium comes free with the console.
The lowdown:
Clearly realising that they need to provide some quick and obvious reasons why the Wii Remote is such a good idea Nintendo have packed in this compilation with the console, which includes simple versions of tennis, golf, baseball, bowling and boxing. The four player tennis game is the obvious stand out as you swing the Remote exactly as you would a real tennis racket, with the game seeming to almost magically interpret your movements into the game. All the other games work in a similar way, as you hold the Remote like a golf club or ready it like a baseball bat - you can even use it to gently roll bowling bowls and add some subtle aftertouch. The graphics make be purposefully basic but these are the games to instantly prove why the Wii is going to be such a revolution.
Most exciting moment:
While even Wii Tennis can be played with very minor movements of the Wii Remote the boxing game actively encourages you to act things out properly. You hold up both the Remote and the nunchuck to simulate your two hands and then duck and weave as you switch between trying to pummel your opponent and dodging or blocking their own attacks.

Happy Bunny with my Spanking New Dyson ‘Ball’
Just received the new Dyson CD25 ‘Ball,’ the Super Saver Delivery service is quick. I placed the order on Friday afternoon & by Saturday 10am (less than 24 hours), I had used the Dyson to great success.
Easy to follow instruction for the assembly of the main handle to the body of the unit. Plain English manual to fully learn how to use the ‘Ball’ to best effect.
It’s incredible considering two days ago I had used my ‘old’ vac to clean the hallway, this little baby goes further than expected. Talk about suction power & ease of use. The ‘Ball’ design is ideal for those who need to navigate around their floors (all in the wrist action!).
One point worth mentioning, it seemes to be more stable when using the telescopic wand to reach up the stairs (my old vac would fall over, I’ve got the bruises to show for it).
So far I’m impressed & would reccommend the new Dyson ‘Ball’ to those who are in need of an all floor, easy to operate vacuum.
Dyson virgin.
After years of using cheap hoovers that have the suction of an asthmatic 80yr old I have just splashed out on the Dyson DC25 Allfloors. This machine is fantastic. I was so impressed I actually hoovered twice in the same day I got delivery.
The suction is so good it’ll take the skin off your hands. It is very ergonomic with all the bits and bobs within easy reach. The extendable wand is great and easy to use. This machine is a must for carpets that ‘hold in’ grime and hair….like mine….! Amazon delivery A+ as I just went for free standard delivery but arrived next day.
another happy owner
Just to add my vote that having received and used for a week, this is a brilliant vacuum. Worth all 5 of the stars. I know that some of the earlier dyson’s had mixed reviews, but this is a celebration of design and functionality, with the 5 year guarantee to back it up. Worth the money.
Top notch design and great cleaning.
This really is as good as it looks (and boy does it look good). My family has an older Dyson and for comparisons sake I cleaned the whole house with that before cleaning again with the DC25. The DC25 found no shortage of extra dust and I was amazed what an improvement this model is over it’s predecessors. The ball will be the next dual cyclone in that I fully expect all major makes to adopt this technology before long. All hail James Dyson, a true genius!
P.s. The design is so original/intriguing that you don’t need a broom cupboard. My DC25 is left out on display!

The Tefal Actifry is a product that will make you to enjoy tasty, home cooked chips, but feel good and taking care you healtht. I bougth this product last two weeks ago the actifry really great the chips do taste different to deep fried but in my opinion there taste nicer in the actifry.I use my actifry for cooking meat especially chicken and sauage which tastes great. I would never use cook these meats any other way now.

Brilliant kitchen gadgetI was doubtful when I first saw this, but having spent nearly a year using it at least once a week I wouldn’t be without this now. We mainly use it for chips/wedges (adding spices) and roast potatoes (with onions or carrots and parsnips). Everything is turned and cooked evenly.
On the first one, we snapped one of the clips on the lid so got it replaced and are a bit more careful now. Despite this one weakness, I still highly recommend this to my friends.
a chip fiend writes
A deep fat fryer that takes only one spoon of oil to cook chips? You must be joking. And yet this cunning machine produces very respectable chips without the stench associated with deep fat frying. Furthermore it assuages my anxiety about the unhealthiness of serial chip eating. It really is very good for the chipaholic. Yes it is rather expensive, yes it takes longer than the ‘real thing’ and yes it makes me feel like a bit of a food fraud. But when chips are both so tasty and healthy at the same time, who really cares?
