Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: None for the price

...This is just budget cable I use for connecting my mp3 player to my home hi-fi setup, I also use this cable for connecting my laptop to my hi fi. It is basically a mini-phone stereo 3.5 mm - male on the one end - plugs into your headphone socket in your laptop for instance, and on the other end has 2 x RCA - male connectors, which plug into a normal Hi-fi around the back, left and right channel. This is a standard connection on both ends, nothing special, but works well everytime. The cable is 5m long, made from the usual black plastic, with rubberised ends to stop the cable from snapping and degrading on the pressure points, the cable I have takes a lot of abuse on the ends and has been reliable for a long time. Sound quality is pretty good, plenty good enough for most audio poeple, but not going to be good enough for when you have... Read review

...Sadly, this isn’t original, but it contains more than a grain of truth and may just possibly resonate with some Ciao members! 1. The FEMALE always makes THE RULES. 2. THE RULES are subject to change at any time without prior notice. 3. No MALE can possibly know all THE RULES. 4. If the FEMALE suspects that the MALE knows all THE RULES she must immediately change some or all of THE RULES. 5. The FEMALE is never wrong. 6. If the FEMALE is wrong it is due to a misunderstanding which was the direct result of something the MALE said or did. 7. The MALE must apologise for said misunderstanding. 8. The MALE is always wrong. 9. The MALE may be right if he agrees with the FEMALE unless she wants him to disagree. 10. The FEMALE may change her mind at any time. 11. The MALE may never change his mind without the written consent... Read review

Advantages: Cheaper than other places for pet supplies
Disadvantages: Seems to be run by people who know nothing about the pets they are selling

.... I was rather concerned that maybe he had an infection which the other rabbit may have caught so i rushed off to the vets to have Jake checked. Jake was find and the vet said that he had probably had a stroke and it was just one of those things. Over the next few days Jake was pining for his little friend so i decided to go back to pets at home and get him a new little playmate. The rabbits were in the same enclosure as on my previous visit marked male and female. In the male side there were 3 male lop eared rabbits so again we chose one. I spoke to the sales assistant for around 10 minutes and specifically asked if the rabbit we had chosen was definitly male. He assured me it was and said all their rabbits are sexed before they are put up for sale, he even turned the rabbit upside down to check. I paid £25 for the rabbit named Harvey... Read review

Advantages: Some Essential Reed Songs
Disadvantages: A lot of filler

...This was Lou Reed's second solo album, post Velvet Underground, produced under the aegis of his mentor and RCA label mate of the time David Bowie. The album is heavily influenced by "Ziggy" era Bowie, which ironic considering that Bowie was heavily influenced by the work of Reed with the Velvet Underground. Reed influencing Bowie influencing Reed. The album is none the worse for Ziggy's influence. The cover is interesting featuring a scary stark pure black and white photograph of Reed on the front and models representing Reed's male / female personae on the back. There are some fine songs here, opening with the excellent "Vicious" which could have graced a VU album, this is floowed by "Andy's Chest" about Mr Warhol. Next up we have "Perfect Day" which was also the "B" side of the stand out song here "Walk On The Wildside... Read review
