Advantages: Good design Disadvantages: Stickey Valves
I have been trying out the Tusa TR 400 Imperex for two weeks now. I have found it to be very good regulator. The valves seem to be of good quality. At first it worked perfectly and I thought I would never use another regulator. However on my fith dive with the Tusa TR 400 Imperex. As I reached the 40 meter mark the regulator got stuck in the open possition and was squerting out air. When I reached the surface and took the regulator to a reputable dive centre they informed me that the problem was that Tusa had fitted a faulty valve. He fixed the problem and the regulator has been fine since then. I don't think it's a common problem so I wouldn't worry about it.

BB's is a standard small Italian restaurant in on Devonshire Street Sheffield which serves a standard Italian restaurant type meal. To be honest it's one of those places you wouldn't really notice if you just walked down the street but I love it there.
The reason why I love BB's so much is that it caters so well to groups. I've often felt in restaurants that if you go with a group and make some noise that other diners will get annoyed. BB's caters really well for groups, there is both a downstairs and upstairs which are small so chances are you'll be on different tables if you go with a group but nobody minds people moving around or making noise which is really nice.
I've only ever been there with student societies as the big draw is that you can bring your own wine, but I've never had a bad meal there or a bad time. All the waitors ...
