Review of Sweet Tooth
05 May 08, 18:49
Still smiling! 
I was passing Sweet Tooth this weekend and saw the front of the shop boarded up!
I went in to ask what had happened and the chirpy couple who run the shop told me their shop front had been vandalised for the 6th time this year :-(
Despite the bad news, the staff were still smiling, and having a laugh with the customers. When I had told them about WeLoveLocal.Com and all the lovely reviews they had been receiving, their smiles grew even bigger.
"Even with the front looking like that?" she said
"Its what’s inside that counts I replied"
I walked off like a movie star after my romantic one liner.......carrying a quarter of fizzy cola bottles into the sunset.
:-D

Review of Turkish Delight
05 May 08, 18:18
LIGHTS, ACTION, PIZZA!
As drunken conversations go, there is nothing normally more interesting than have a good old chin wag with the man in the kebab shop). He's your instant best mate as soon as you step in the door. You may have never seen him in your life, but he'll always get a handshake and return it with a bewildered smile!
I’ve been performing this ancient ritual at Turkish Delight for over 8 years. The man in the Kebab shop, Tariq.
By day, he is an "extra" in the TV and film industry! From little Britain to Charlie and the chocolate factory. Tariq (without garlic mayo) is always in the background.
By night he serves the finest food known to man (on the A41)...Kebabs, Chips, Pizza, Burgers, the lot!!
He may not win an Oscar for his acting, but his food deserves an award....

Review of Vue Cinemas
14 Apr 08, 17:55
THE DADDY OF CINEMAS!
Well, apart from the IMAX!
The cinema is situated inside "star city" which is the closest thing to america you can experience this side of the pond in terms of a multi facilitated......facility!
the cinema has over 30 screens and a hand full "gold class" screens
The regular cinema is top class, but if you wanna be swish, go gold!
Individual leather seats ( which recline electronically, feet and head) bar service, drinks n snacks private cinema ( about 50 seats)
very cool indeed
I would recommend this if you hate sitting in a crowded cinema with people munching popcorn in your ear!
Obviously you have to pay twice the amount for the privilege, but its worth the treat every now and then!
on the star city complex there are numrous activities from bowling to rock climbing to a casino.
something for everyone!

Review of Beacon FM Wabc Radio
11 Apr 08, 17:06
Best Radio station in the Mindlands?
Hey, If that isn't a title to rattle up the anoraks I don't know what is.
Beacon Radio has been broadcasting for approximately 1 billion years!
Back then they had a "midnight line"? and "reel to reel"
Sadly both of these are now obsolete and should never be referred to again...
These days it still has a loyal following and pumps out local information by the boat load. Maaaaan they sure love local at that place....here's the line up....
06:00 - 09:00 Fresh & Jo In The Morning 09:00 - 13:00 Andy Nash 13:00 - 16:00 Justin Walker 16:00 - 19:00 Jon Wyer 19:00 - 22:00 Music Control Kevin Hughes 22:00 - 01:00 Late Night Love Graham Torrington

Review of Newbridge Fish & Chips
11 Apr 08, 16:29
Yummy!
People travel far and wide for the newbridge chippy!
Always greeted with a smile, and they serve those nice orange chips too!
My only complaint would be they alway have radio 1 on at lunch times, Jo Whileys voice in a chip shop just doesnt go, unless they were battering the fish in gold and self importance!
Kebabs are great, make sure you shout GARLIC MAYO nice and loud!
