Abode Exeter, EXETER on 06/08/2008
None of ClaireM's review surprises me - I (and everyone I know) gave up on the Clarence - both Hotel and Restaurant - some time ago. How can I describe my experiences - simply 'NO food makes up for supercilious staff.' And I'm talking about the mana...more
Ginsters Cornish Pasties Limited, BRISTOL on 25/07/2008
Mildly stunned to see a Scotsman lecturing the rest of us about Cornish pasties on the BBC. Even more stunned when it transpired he was from Ginsters. The joke in Devon is that Ginsters is the Cornish way of getting their own back on the rest of Engl...more
RSPCA Headquarters, HORSHAM on 09/06/2008
What a great pity the RSPCA ruined over 100 years of wonderful work for animals with their extraordinary behaviour over the Hunting Act. No-one disputes that there may have been justifiable concerns about hunting of any kind, but for the RSPCA to sel...more
Calcutt & Sons Ltd, WINCHESTER on 09/05/2008
I have used Calcutts for over 30 years, for both new and second hand gear for both myself and for horses. They stock Henry Keat hunting horns. Great service, whether in person or online....more
Manor House Online, Wolverhampton on 09/05/2008
I'm not wild about doing business with web-businesses that do not display a contact number on their website. What happens when they don't respond to your emails? On top of this we have a business here purporting to sell hunting horns, with an...more
The Daily Telegraph (online), London on 06/05/2008
Although the site itself is OK content-wise, the search function needs a good looking-at. I have just spent an hour searching for two articles online, hard copies of which I have in front of me. Not so difficult you might assume. Not so. Search on ti...more
Badminton Horse Trials Ltd, BADMINTON on 06/05/2008
Phew - luckily the weather held and an epic Badminton ensued. Goodness knows what would have happened if it had rained hard with the track having been seeded just last Autumn! Everything else went fairly well like clockwork but as HelpHound is meant ...more
Wagamama, LONDON on 28/03/2008
I love Wagamama, but just a couple of issues with their website: They helpfully provide .pdf's of all their menus - but they're illegible. Also I reckon they can drop the reference to 'Can I smoke?' in their Q&A now!...more
Le Caprice, LONDON on 26/03/2008
A London classic. Lunch at the bar has always been a staple. le Caprice will never let you down, it's a true destination restaurant where the service matches the quality of food. Don't be intimidated by its reputation either. The staff are pr...more
Tom's Place, LONDON on 26/03/2008
Cracking seafood and fish and chips, not expensive given its location. Tom Aikens cares about his fish and where it comes from. Possibly the best fish and chips in London - Geales beware!...more
Pakeman Catto & Carter, CIRENCESTER on 23/03/2008
Car crash catalogue! Seriously, I've been shopping, both in person and from their catalogue, for years now, and they're miles better than this. You've got to get the catalogue just to see how wrong a catalogue can get. It starts on the fr...more
Kitsch U Like, EXETER on 23/03/2008
Just been on their website - look at the turntable bag! I gotta go next time I'm in Exeter....more
National Trust, ALTRINCHAM on 16/03/2008
My goodness, you'd think the powers that be at the NT would learn a thing or two about good architecture. The utter intellectual desolation of the development at Dunham Massey is depressing; it is difficult to avoid coming to the conclusion that ...more
Hoplands Equestrian Centre, STOCKBRIDGE on 17/02/2008
Hoplands is apparently under new ownership. Certainly the facilities are great - for horses. Please could someone have a look at the catering for events? £1.50 for a cup of tea is too much, but the tea was undrinkable as well. My daughter couldn'...more
Mother Earth, LONDON on 06/02/2008
I can do worse than let their website speak for them...Welcome to Mother Earth, a shop in North London that sells really good food. If you call it healthy, whole, organic, natural, fair-trade or even ever so fashionably real then we say its all good ...more
