Customer Review: Excellent
Title sums it up really. Bought as I was starting to renovate an old house. It’s got damp, needs bathrooms, kitchens, exterior problems etc…. This book helps a lot to indentify and solve these, at a minimum you know what you can do and when to call in the professionals!
Customer Review: How to do everything … in two paragraphs
There is no denying the scope of this book is, to say the least, comprehensive. It covers almost every topic imaginable in DIY from dry lining your basement to capping the chimney and covers it at every range whether you just want to change a fuse or rewire the entire building. That scope though is both its virtue and its problem. Yes I can pick this up and be fairly confident that it will tell me how to go about building a stud wall but I know that it is also likely to be something of an overview of the subject rattled off in a few paragraphs. Often that is enough. There are a lot of jobs where a grasp of the basics and a willingness to have a go are good enough and if I’m laying new paving slabs I’ll read this and go for it. Alternatively there are some jobs where I’d like a little more expertise than this can provide. Yes this book will tell me how to change the main fuse box but I’m not going to do that when it means working on the live side of a 100 amp line! In those cases though at least it lets me know roughly how difficult the job is so that I don’t sound like a complete numpty when I call an electrician and ask if they could replace the ‘thingummy by the front door with the fuses in it’. I’d say to anyone that they should buy this book even if you don’t ever intend to do the DIY yourself. If you do the DIY this is a good first reference to find out what to do. If it’s not comprehensive enough then it will give enough of an overview that you will know what to look for when searching for more detail and if you do get someone else to do the job you’ve a better chance of knowing if they’re doing the right thing.

This iPod battery replaces the battery that came with your iPod photo. If yours has stopped holding charge, this battery will give your iPod a new lease of life! If they’re used regularly, it’s not unusual for iPod batteries to wear out after 18 months or so. This battery actually has a higher capacity than the original iPod batteries, so you’ll be able to use the iPod for much longer without having to recharge.

Customer Review: Neat but Flawed
POSITIVE: looks stylish, light and comfortable to wear, logical sequence through the various functions and pleasingly free of techno-clutter - only the functions you might actually want are there and no more. NEGATIVE: display can be awkward to read, buttons can be awkward to operate when worn, Navman do not reply to queries; all minor problems. The major problem is the loss of GPS contact when around buildings, under bridges or trees and even near high fences; loss of signal results in wrong readings. Superbly accurate in open country but unreliable in towns and cities.
Customer Review: Navman R300
An accurate, easy-to-use speedo and odometer for sportsmen and women? You bet. I had to have one of these as soon as I heard about them: For all distances from 100m sprints to marathon training. It’s light enough not to annoy on the run (sits on a well designed arm band), is easy to set up, waterproof and remarkably accurate to 1/100th of a mile (or 1/100km if you’re that way inclined) Downside? Doesn’t like tunnels, dense cloud cover, lots of trees (though it still seems to work out speeds/distances ok at the end of the run) and will not work indoors. Also the screen is a bit on the small side, especially when you’ve got sweat in your eyes and HR is up to 95%. I used it to measure my car’s speed by hanging it out of the window…..and how fast my Dad “drives” his narrowboat (we found he frequently breaks the 4mph speed limit!!!) Buy one and you won’t regret it. It makes training that much more fun, and if you’re also using an HRM the possibilities for pace prediction in a race are endless. GO RUN!
