Advantages: Clean, efficient, friendly staff Disadvantages: not enough frequency to some stations
I use the SouthWest Trains service between Salisbury and Tisbury, and Salisbury, Tisbury and London Waterloo frequently. The old diesel trains have been refurbished, and are very comfortable. They are still quite loud, but quite smooth. They are always immaculate, and punctual, and the staff are great. There is always a buffet trolley, which is well stocked and is reasonably priced. The fares are quite good as well, especially if you've got a railcard and you book in advance. The return fare from Tisbury to Salisbury is much cheaper than the bus. The only problem is frequency of the trains stopping at Tisbury, as they only stop once an hour, which can be frustrating. However, trains running every half hour to London from Salisbury is great, as it means that you never have to wait too long. ...
Advantages: Value for money and superb scenery Disadvantages: High specifications required

To do this in a flight simulator requires scenery that's exactly the same as the real landscape. VFR Real Scenery is an amazing piece of software that provides just that - fly over England and Wales in Flight Simulator X and sample the view you'd get from a real aircraft. You can see the real countryside from ...
Advantages: great camera work, and a brilliant sound track to go with it. Disadvantages: story line slightly confusing.
If you're a fan of Trainspotting or Human Traffic you will love this film, which combines a great soundtrack (mixed by Dave Pierce) and brilliant visual effects to really bring the film spring to life.
SouthWest Nine takes you through a day of five people living in Brixton. Some of the people Freddy (drug dealer/DJ) Jake (drug Dealer) Mitch (drug Dealer) Kat (drug Dealer) and finally Helen (she's not a drug dealer she just wants to destroy the bank she works for!). some really seedy characters but really believable too!
Mitch: (the heart of the film) from the start is smacked up on a LSD trip that will last for the rest of his life. (The moral don't put your hand in the wrong place)
Helen: the only one that is not smacked up on something. She just wants to destroy the multimillion-pound bank that she works for. An interesting ...
