INTRODUCTION
I booked dinner and theatre for my wife's thirtieth birthday, and needed a relatively up-market hotel in London - with a bit of ?wow? factor - to overnight in. I am a frequent visitor to IC Hotel Group properties on business (these include the five star Intercontinental Hotels, the four to five star Crowne Plaza, and the three to four star Holiday Inn) and am a member of their award-winning ?Priority Club? loyalty scheme, so I decided to use my accumulated points to redeem a ?Reward Night? and stay for free. The hotel is on Buckingham Gate, with extensive frontage featuring an attractive red and white brick façade with decorative arches, reminiscent of Florentine architecture.
GETTING TO & FROM
The hotel is in the heart of Westminster. It?s a short, three minute, walk from StJames? Park Tube ...
Advantages: Good Sunday Lunch, Nice Pub And Lovely Setting Disadvantages: Food Is Quite Expensive
The Angler?s Rest is one of three Public Houses/Restaurants in the little picturesque Village of Bamford, in an area of Derbyshire?s Peak District National Park known as the High Peak.
I visited the Angler?s Rest in Bamford recently for Sunday Lunch, although I must confess that this was not actually my first choice of venue.

I have eaten at the Angler?s Rest before but this was many years ago. Back then this place served excellent food but I had heard that its standards had fallen since that time. I had however heard that this place had recently changed owners ...
Advantages: News content on a very specialised subject Disadvantages: A paper is more difficult to read than a magazine
This paper is unlike any other. Not only is the content quite different from that of a normal newspaper, it tells only truth too!!!
I don't know many anglers who have not at sometime or another, looked in between these pages, and found something useful.
It basically has everything that the modern day angler would want. There are sections on all different aspects of the sport. Carp, match, sea, as well as just the sport in general.
It is also totally crammed with news, reviews, results and competitions. It has so much more than a normal fishing mag would offer. Its features, explaining different methods that are worth trying , to the angler, are a less prominent part of the paper (when compared to the magazines), but it makes up for this with additional content which cannot be found anywhere else (other maybe than 'Anglers ...
