  1. Hi Everyone.

     

    I'm hoping to book a lovely afternoon tea party as a baby shower for my friend. It would be around the start of April and I was hoping somewhere central.

     

    The cheapest quote I have had, for 20 people, is £300 which is out of my budget.

     

    If anyone knows of any venues that offers afternoon tea/cream tea parties, please feel free to contact me.

     

    Thanks everyone!:)


  2. I have never had a problem though I have never used the one at Crystal Peaks. I've always had great service and great glasses. My eyetest was between 30-45 minuets and they were very quick in ordering the lenses I needed.

     

    My mother used D&A who said that she would be blind in her left eye within 6 months! We of course consulted her GP who referred to to an eye clinic and it was garbage! They had had several similar stories like this from the same D&A.

     

    Specsavers is lovely. They have a lovely choice of frames and I've always received brilliant service. Hope the bad experience doesn't put you off next time.


  3. Sometimes you dont get the option of what property you move into with the Council. I'm sure people would love to have a property without a garden etc. And Sedith - Chill dude. I don't have a garden, and I don't drink. So don't assume i'm in Wetherspoons all weekend. I put my opinion across - thats all. I don't expect to be insulted by it. Goodness me.


  4. I think this is unfair. If you don't have a lawnmower etc - how do you cut your grass? The council say they offer "help" to sort out gardens, but they don't.

    Charity agencies say they will help - but not with the exterior of your garden.

     

    It shouldn't be just "Council Tenants" who get the criticism. What about people who purchase there houses etc...there gardens are total tips!

     

    If it was a perfect world, you would get off your high horse and look at the bigger picture. Some people don't have the time/money to do the garden for alot of reasons.

     

    Stop picking a fight for no reason.


  5. I know people who work there and really enjoy their jobs. They now have a solid career structure in place and they have offered some of my friend’s permanent contracts. Their salary and bonus means that they do reward the best performers. Like any customer service job they have their good and bad days but I know that overall they are more than happy and enjoy what Knowhow has to offer. I would recommend you go for it. They recruited a lot of people last year and only a very small majority have something bad to say. All the others that are still there and enjoying it tend not to post that info on Forums.

     

    You only say that because you work at Blue Arrow. The process is shocking. Hardly anything is done correctly and don't expect to be paid on-time!!

     

    Look elsewhere...


  6. Dixons was the worst place I ever worked. It's horrible, they're sneeky, they don't care about you or your well being. I would turn the job down and look somewhere else.

    And if your going through Blue Arrow - Good Luck!!! They constantly messed up my pay, never getting it right, always underpaying and constantly causing problems.

     

    I know times are hard finding a job, but I would seriously look elsewhere if you can!!


  7. You can certainly complain, but I doubt it will do anything :( I escalated mine and CCd in my Local MP who said there was nothing they could do. The police who dealt with my incident were brilliant, but deffinatly complain...you never know, this time they may listen! x


  8. I will never use City Taxi's again. I waited for 35minuets for a taxi, then when it FINALLY arrived, the driver complained that he was stuck in traffic, hitting the steering wheel and using very abusive language. After finally getting through the rush hour traffic in town, he said "oh, I can't go there, I have somewhere to be in 20mins". He then demanded I get out of the taxi, PAY him for the time that was used, and call another cab!

     

    When I reported this to the taxi firm, they didn't care. They assured me a manager would contact me regarding the situation and noone did!!!

     

    They are utterly disgraceful! - Hopefully your daughter is okay! x

     

    Contact the firm. If they do nothing, go to the licencing department at the town hall (I think). They will take more severe action.


  9. BB's restaurant on Devonshire green. It's lovely! They do the most delicious food (Especially steak) It's bring your own wine(thought your not drinking but your sister might).

     

    The atmosphere is really nice. It's the perfect little Italian restaurant.

     

    Google it :)


  10. No worries Nikki.

    The kids involved were 11+12 to my understanding.

     

    If they were 15+, I would have pressed chargers, but I felt at that age, they police involvement and being suspended from school would give them a good scare.

     

    I'm still in regular contact with the police, and if anything happens on that bus, it gets reported instantly. Passengers should NOT have to deal with such disgusting behaviour.

     

    It it happens again Nikki, I'll see them in court, and there parents are well aware of that.
