Review of Costa Coffee

28 Apr 08, 16:42

Too expensive for me 2*

Costa Coffee... well what can one say about this place? I'm guessing it's called Costa for one of two reasons. A) because it's a rip off and B) because it's made on the Spanish Coast. If it's not the latter (or latte should I say!) I'm seriously considering going to trades descriptions as I only drink Spanish tea/coffee. Hellohah.

Review of Oceana

28 Apr 08, 16:38

Not bad at all my friends, not bad! 4*

Oceana is good! I get in for free (happy days) I don't like the ice room at all. It takes ages to get to the baby-bell. The cheesey room is good but everyone seems to fart on the dancefloor and it really lingers. They could do with some more extractor fans in here.

Review of Crystal Palace Museum

28 Apr 08, 16:35

Best museum of the guilded age 5*

The Crystal Palace is one the lost wonders of the guilded age! It doesn't get enough recognition and they should rebuild it. I like the museum's photo archive particularly the coloured photos from 1936. It's a shame that they couldn't rebuild it but they built that ugly millennium dome.

Review of Primark

24 Apr 08, 08:23

Cheap cheap 2*

It looks like Matalan has some competition! When it comes to buying my pants and socks I'm going to go to the shop that rocks. That's right. It's Primark on Abington Street. Number one for pants and socks and bedding material such as cheap sheets and pillow cases. I also got jeans for £8. Clothes wise, shaggy would find it shabby....

Review of Republic

24 Apr 08, 08:22

Too small for me 2*

Republic as a store in general is good... but the Northampton one lacks choice for men, is a fraction of the size of the one at the Trafford Centre. It's very claustraphobic and not much room. On a busy Saturday this is a cocktail for disaster

Review of Morrisons

24 Apr 08, 08:21

Who needs "every little helps"?? 3*

Who needs "every little helps" when you've got "more reasons to shop at Morrisons"....??

This market has a unique selling point! It's between a premium band and economy band supermarket. The market street is fabdabbydozee. I used to work there and you can get all sorts from the fishery, the butchers and you have more choice on what you can buy on the market street than any other supermarket

Review of Lloyds No. 1 Bar

22 Apr 08, 17:47

Average Joe 2*

Lloyds is not just named after a bank... but they do good food offers. But like the bank, there are similarities between the two because I have to get my cash from Lloyds to spend at Lloyds. The drink is the same as any other bar and the staff include a couple of fitties in there. Watch out though, I mistook a barMAN for a barMAID.

Review of Sosta Cafe

22 Apr 08, 17:44

Great soup 3*

I like the soup because it has bits of real food in it i.e. tomato bits. I like the seats and the windows because you can spy on nice ladies as they walk by and the occassional boss on his phone doing laps of the cemetary and surrounding buildings. The toilets aren't very nice though

Review of Xscape Centre

22 Apr 08, 17:33

Chav heaven 1*

Chavy chavy chavy chavy / tacky tacky tacky tacky. I think it's going to look very out dated in a few years. It'll be like rollers and will end up having to be pulled down!!!!!!

Review of The Stuffed Olives

22 Apr 08, 17:32

Good restaurant 3*

Good restaurant - very nice food. Better when you're not paying for it! I think the tableware was a bit unusual like Tom Jones
