PowerTrek Inversion Pro Inversion Table

Advantages: Another fresh view of Culture
Disadvantages: Not the book for somone starting Culture series

...Iain M Banks Inversions is another page-turner in the great Culture series. A general description of Culture is that an Utopian, post-scarcity (limitless resources) alien society, lead/controlled by powerful Als. The view of Culture is that less-advanced societies would benefit from their influence, thus the series describes the interaction between Culture and other civilizations.

...A couple of weeks ago, my parents and I, along with my children, decided we would go out for a bar meal. We've all been quite busy recently and it's been quite a while since we got together like this. We decided to go to a place we knew pretty well, which was reliable and child friendly. Knowing it as it's former name, 'The Carrow House', and more recently 'The Border Gate' and part of the Brewers Fayre chain we headed off. Arriving, we where surprised to see it had been taken over again, and completely refurbished, now under the name '"Table Table'" About Table Table This isn't a chain I personally have ever come across before, indeed didn't realise it was actually part of the same company as Brewers Fayre. Part of The Whitbread Chain, Table Table has a more up-market feel than it's sister chain Brewers Fayre. Table... Read review
