Review of Victoria Swimming Centre

Swimming 
This place was built in the 60's and hasn't been cleaned since. The pool is good and instructors are very charasmatic. But it is a dirty hole.

Review of Monsoon
22 Apr 08, 18:27
Steady 
As you'd expect from Monsoon . Although I had an exchange and the staff were superb (and fit). Good serivce even though it was mayhem in there, also they were willing to go the extra yeard looking in the store room.

Review of Kens Kebab House & Speedy Pizza
22 Apr 08, 18:29
Not for the faint hearted. 
I've been eating at Kens over the past 10 years and the food is OK. 1 word of warning, don't bother with a delivery pizza. You'd be better off buying a boxed 1, chucking the contents in the bin and eating the box. It'll be tastier and probably warmer.

Review of Gilberts

The Best ever? 
Luckily I live a stones throw from Gilberts, which is possibly the best sweet shop on earth. Pick a sweet from your child hood and they stock it, probably in 15 different flavours. Its Old Skool, but bloody brilliant.

Review of Monsoon Thali House

Top Nosh 
Scoff at the Monsoon is superb. On Albert Rd there are 10000 curry houses, but these guys knock up the food fresh. You can tell, because it actually tasts of curry. They also do a fine takeout service and they're normally there with 30 mins.

Review of Baffins Inn
22 Apr 08, 18:37
Chavtastic 
I've been drinking in The Baffins since the start of time and my old man drank there before that. It used to be a solid local pub, now sadly its a hang out for youth. If you wear a hoodie and like to rock up on your push along scooter, you'll love it.

Review of Bransbury Park Butchers
22 Apr 08, 18:39
A Miracle! 
I'm a serious carnivore, I love meat. These guys are possibly the best in Portsmouth/Hampshire. Really good sized cuts and the meat is quality. Its cheaper than the super market, not packaged up and it actually looks and tastes like meat.

The Home of Good Cake 
Sod the Golf. This place serves unbelievable food and cakes. eople come from miles around to savour the sweet delights on offer and are normally back within about 2 days. Great service, good prices, before you know it, you'll be 47 stone and slagging me off for recommending it. Good luck.

Review of Farm & Cottage Holidays
22 Apr 08, 18:45
First Class 
I booked a family holiday through these guys (a farm cottage in Portreath). It was brilliant, everything we were looking for. The actual cottage was superb, but booking on line and paying was effortless. I can't fault it.

Review of Opera House
22 Apr 08, 18:52
Cool and Classy 
I hadn't been to this place since it was the Academy, many moons ago. Its refitted and looks superb. if you want a class night out, spacious, relaxing and not surrounded by sweaty mites gnawing at the plaster, you'll love this place. Not cheap mind.
