Review of TK Max
16 Apr 08, 20:10
Not worth the rummage 
If you're a clothes magpie like me, then you don't really mind a good root around the bottom of a bargain bin for that little treasure. Unfortunately, this TK Maxx is just not worth the rummage. The Worthing branch is generally more fruitul.

Review of Primark

Want a migraine? Spend half an hour in Primarche!
Want a migraine? Spend half an hour in Primarche! Garaunteed to give you emotional meltdown at any time of day. But if you really want a mental breakdown then go on a Saturday. You will be, within minutes, surrounded by thousands of women all desperately trying to a) access the changing rooms and b) attempting to untangle hangers of items they want to buy. There has to be something good about Primark, but if we're going on cost per wear, I generally wear the impulse items no more than once before they hit the bin or the hand-me-down bag.

Review of Custard Card Shop

My favourite card shop 
Custard is my favourite card shop. The selection of cards is really inspiring, and I always end up buying more than I need because I just can't resist them.

Review of Ashoka Tandoori Restaurant
16 Apr 08, 18:40
Ooh, I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!
I do pity the poor staff in here who usually have to put up with me and my posse who invade this delightful indian restaurant after a few too many alcopops. But I have to say, that the staff are fantastic, sublimely polite and always give great service. I can highly recommend the Lamb Pathia, which they always make just a bit spicier if I'm feeling daring that night. Ooh, I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

Review of Topshop
16 Apr 08, 18:37
Not the best stocked topshop
Not the best stocked topshop...I'm always just a bit disappointed when I go in as I'm generally looking for something a bit quirky or edgy. I know that ToSho's capable of merchandising these kind of clothes, but the Brighton supply seems to cater more for students. Or maybe I'm just getting old.

Review of Badger Clothing Co
16 Apr 08, 18:34
Great brands and service
If you want great brands (including Fred Perry and Lee) and fantastic service then you must visit Badger. They have a constant supply of new stock so there's generally something new to try and buy. The shop's pretty compact though, so the most attentive service comes either early or late in the day if you're in at the weekends.

Review of Reiss
16 Apr 08, 18:31
Contemporary high street fashion 
Reiss always offers contemporary high street fashion and there's generally always a bag or a pair of shoes that I fall in love with. This then generally ends up with me lusting after them for the whole season, saving up for them and then realising that they've all sold out. And so it happens again the following season. Great in sale time too to boost the work wardrobe, and the menswear in there is superstylee too.

Review of Grand Central
16 Apr 08, 18:29
Not bad considering Hove's station pub
Not bad considering Hove's station pub - which is almost a chore to go in. The Grand Central is actually a half decent pub considering it's so close to the train station. It's an easy meeting point for newcomers to the beautiful city of Brighton, and they do have a yard which is open in the summer for drinking.

Review of Dragons Health Club
16 Apr 08, 18:26
I really want to like this gym...
I really want to like this gym...but it's really hard to. The people are friendly enough, but I just haven't connected with it. The radio's never loud enough in the changing room, so I can't hear Southern FM's Danny and Nicky in the Morning loud enough after I've had my workout and I'm getting showered, which is always frustrating as it's my favourite breakfast show! But that's not the only reason - it just feels like it needs a bit of customer love. Remove the sardine-packed spinning bikes from the studio so you don't have to be splattered by the bloke sweating profusely next to you. Clean the mirrors in the treadmill room a bit better please, and get more parking. Please.

Review of Harrods
16 Apr 08, 18:20
A very rich husband does help 
Never underestimate the power of a discounted Gucci handbag and the effect that it has over a group of women, all running towards the leather room on the first day of the sale. Yes, the Harrods Sale is certainly the most famous in the world, and completely worth it if you've got your eye on something divine. Just don't expect to be the only person who's had their eye on it all season either but is keen to get it at the discounted prices. Oh, and a very rich husband does help.
