Review of Leeds Castle
29 Apr 08, 19:30
Kents jewel 
this is one of the finest historical sites in the world.
you can almost feel henry the eighth when you're here.
history is all around you - and is brought to life superbly.
the maze is wicked fun for kids - the interior of the castle for the adults and the summer concerts great fun for everyone.
love it

Review of Winnie The Pooh Shop
29 Apr 08, 19:24
as far as i know this is the only one
as far as i know this is the only winnie the pooh store in the world.
it's become a tourist attraction in it's own right now.
people come to this store, buy something or simply take photo's of their kids there.
my little daughter loves this place - i bought her door letters here.
lovely shop.

Review of Camera Obscura
29 Apr 08, 17:53
Excellent place to visit
I'd never seen a camera obscura before - so this was new to me.
I was incredibly impressed with the visualisations inside the various rooms - my favourite being the holograms.
The obscura itself is amazing, if you're there on a sunny day it will blow you away.
I truly recommend this as something to see in Edinburgh

Christmas was amazing
I spent Christmas at this hotel last year. Have to tell you what an amazing experience.
The health spa is stunning, the food is awesome and the rooms are large, well styled and comfortable.
I am planning to take my whole family back this Christmas for a repeat performance.
Thank you so much for a lovely time.

Review of The Head Of The River
29 Apr 08, 11:51
one of the uk's nicest pubs
this is truly one of the best pubs in the uk.
it's even a favourite of Ant from Ant & Dec fame - if you go here often enough you'll see the star - pint in hand sitting by the river!!
Had many a great evening in here.
Lovely people, lovely pub.

Review of Park End Club
29 Apr 08, 11:50
great night out
I've only had wicked nights out at the Park End club.
Ok so I've been drinking on all of those nights out so thats probably swayed my judgement slightly!!
the music is clear, well mixed and the bar staff are friendly and fast.
only the cloak-room could be a little faster if you ask me!
nice venue.

Review of Brookes Fish & Chips
21 Apr 08, 22:20
great after a day in the office
this place is the saviour of dinner time!
the service is sooo friendly, quick and the portions are good too.
they do really good mushy pea's in this chippy.
the chips aren't greasy and the batter on the fish is soooo tasty.
i use this at least once a week and can recommend it to everyone who lives in or might be moving to flitwick.

Review of Burger King
21 Apr 08, 22:16
every morning at 10am
i used to do the breakfast show on the radio in canterbury - after the show each morning we'd all head into town and hit either maccy d's or this burger king store.
after a while the staff got to know us to it become regular!!
nice people, a clean friendly place to eat.
great for shopping trips and tourists to the beautiful city.

Review of The Park
21 Apr 08, 22:10
bring on the worlds best chips
the chips in this place simply are the best chips in the whole wide world.
the other items on the menu are good too don't get me wrong but the chips are simply stunning.
we use this place for work lunches and birthday parties etc - its a nice comfy smart restaurant without being snobby and poncy.
nice people, nice service - nice food.

Review of Malmaison Oxford
21 Apr 08, 21:49
i remember the prison - this is better
i was never an inmate you understand! we filmed mean machine there with vinny jones!
this hotel is breath-taking. simply a stunning location.
you have to visit to see what they have done to the old prison.
the bar is something to behold in itself - you'll feel like a footballer in there (a better one than vinny jones anyway) visit - it deserves it

Review of Thorpe Park
21 Apr 08, 21:37
best day out EVER!
so if you didn't know both thorpe park and chessington - and alton towers for that matter are owned by the same people. chessington is for the younger kids, and thorpe park for the bigger kids and adults.
this place does NOT dissapoint!
the rides are awesome, thrilling and all feel like the big rides in the florida theme parks. the tidal wave zone is sooooooo based on the jaws zone in universal studios florida - which is no bad thing - thorpe park was small when i was a kid, my how its grown up. if you haven't been GO GO GO you will love every minute.

Review of Ann Summers
21 Apr 08, 21:32
hello baby....
this shop rocks - it always has. what can be more fun than heading into ann summers with your lucy lady and grabbing a whole load of items to enjoy later.
if you dont have a lucky lady - get your skates on and get in there coz guess what, sexy hunnies adore these shops - especially the little zoned off section at the back with the toys in.
ask a woman if she'd like to pop in this shop and you'll get yes yes yes ok then!

Review of Xscape Centre
21 Apr 08, 21:29
never lets you down
this place simply rocks. whether it's a family thing, a date or maybe your just bored and need some fun - this is the place to head to.
from bars to restaurants to cinema to skiing the awesome Xscape centre is one of the true highlights of Milton Keynes.
I love the snow zone, I equally adore City Limits - and so does my five year old - the cosmic bowling is wickedly good fun.
An excellent experience awaits at Xscape MK.

Review of Legoland Windsor Park
21 Apr 08, 13:34
worth every penny
I'm a weekend dad - and one of my best days spent with my little princess was right here at Legoland.
We had such an amazing time - from the minute we turned off the road she was up against the window pointing out all the lego models on the way in.
Once in the park - WOW! So much for kids of all ages to do and SEE which is important.
I esecially loved the log-flume and the fact that the food was all healthy in the park too. Excellent, we're going for 2 days this year.

Review of Cineworld
21 Apr 08, 11:40
Nice people, Nice Cinema
Now I'm a regular here so perhaps a little biased.
I'm a big movie fan and love seeing all the latest releases.
The team at Bedford are nice people, and whilst the cinema could so with an upgrade they do work the place well.
Always on time, clean and comfy. They have the old style seats which I LOVE!

Review of Bedford Rugby Club
18 Apr 08, 16:28
Come on the blues....
This is our home club and what a nice bunch of people they are.
The team are a passionate bunch of super-stars who are actually pretty good... if you've never seen a fast, creative and punchy game of rugby close up i suggest you buy a ticket - sit yourself in the charles wells stand and admire the force of the mighty bedford blues.

Review of Subway

Super-Subway
This is a great example of a great Subway store.
You'll often find me in here at 3am on a Sunday morning after working in a club.
Love the menu, love the door-staff who are always up for a bit of banter with the drunk folk of bedford.
good work!

Review of Filippo Russo
16 Apr 08, 17:11
always get chopped here!
I always have my hair styled at Russo's.
Sheena is my stylist and does a fantastic job every couple of weeks to keep my looking normal at least.
I recommend the services of these guys, especially if you have a function or party to go to - whizz in on your lunch break and get styled up.

Review of Mcarthur Glen Great Western Designer Outlet
16 Apr 08, 16:05
i used to hate shopping!
I really used to hate anything to do with shopping - until i visited the outlet centre.
the freedom you have to move around - the unpressured atmosphere and the relaxed approach from the guys in the stores - not to mention great prices make this a brilliant shopping experience. Thanks guys.

From Paul and Rich on the Bedford Breakfast to Craig on Drivetime - tune in, turn on and enjoy Today's best Mix.

Review of Marlowe Theatre
15 Apr 08, 13:44
Best theatre in Britain
The Marlowe is such a special theatre. Talk to anyone in show business and they'll tell you a story about the Marlowe.
From the now infamous Christmas panto to the traditional Dave Lee Variety show some of the worlds best talent has performed on this famous stage.
It's set for a makeover in 2009 so look out for the all new and improved Marlowe Theatre in 2010 and beyond.

Review of Martin & Co
15 Apr 08, 13:20
Great service
I'm a tennant of Martin and Co Bedford.
The first property I rented had several problems as it was a new build. Martin and Co were awesome at simply finding me another suitable flat and helping me move.
If you are moving to the Bedford area I recommend talking to Martin and Co.

Review of The Bizz
15 Apr 08, 13:10
Excellent night out
It's the old fav..... Baa Bars, The Biz and The Works 3 clubs under one roof.
Experience three rooms of different music and loads of bars which always have cool offers running.
The party cheese room is famously good and the top floor known as the Bizz has just have a makeover!
If your in Canterbury make sure you check out this venue - it's the best night in the town!

Review of Saffron
11 Apr 08, 16:07
Excellent food is waiting
The team at Saffron truly know how to deliver the finest Indian food - and i've paid many visits to this restaurant and it's consistantly good.
The menu is traditional and perfectly balanced to suit all tastes.
I can recommend Saffron as one of "the" places to eat in Bedford.
This is one our best...

Review of Harvey's Bar
11 Apr 08, 16:02
Harvey's Bar Bedford - Awesome
Harvey's is a relatively new bar to the highstreet in Bedford. The bar is dec'ed out with plasma screens and stunning white leather booths.
It's the ultimate classy after work venue by day and the place to hook up with friends and party at the weekend.
With appearances from Chiltern Radio DJ's together with DJ's from Oxygen nightclub taking control of the music your sure to have a fantastic time at Harvey's Bar Bedford.
