Advantages: there wasn't any! Disadvantages: no food or drink, dirty, screens didn't work, didn't show any of the top movies
...such as: Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, Journey to the Center of the Earth, and a few others. Although we wouldn't mind seeing them films, but as none of these received reviews good as some of the others, we didn't want to fork out £7 a seat to see them.
To make matters worse, the floors were dirty, there were no toilets in sight and well, it's just a really bad cinema! We never saw a movie that day, but we are going to see the new Mummy film later on this week, at a real cinema which sells popcorn!
For those that are crazy enough to want to visit such a poor 'cinema', here's the address and website:

Advantages: Location, Facilities, Ideal family holiday Disadvantages: Can get very expensive
...After the destruction of the dome that housed many of the facilities in the fire of 2002 Center Parcs Elvedon has risen from the ashes, but is it bigger and better?
Firstly for those of you who are unaware of what Center Parcs is.
Center Parcs are large family holiday villages set in forests. There are four sites in GB Elvedon Sherwood Forest Longleat and Oasis in the Lake District. There are also villages in France Holland and Belgium.
Elvedon is the village that we return to again and again having visited twice a year for the last eight years.
Elvedon village is set in 400 acres of Thetford forest near Brandon in Suffolk. The site has lakes and streams and varied wildlife.
When you get there the first thing you do is book in at the gate lodge, where you get your villa keys, information booklet and any activity...

Advantages: Great for families Disadvantages: Not so great if you don't like kids
...Center Parcs - Longleat
Taking a young family on holiday is a tricky business with a completely different set of requirements than when going away as a couple. Not least among these is the amount of baby paraphernalia that you need to take. When our youngest was about ten months we took her to New England and managed to get everything into a couple of suitcases and carry on luggage plus a pushchair but now we have two the amount of extra baggage seems to have more than just doubled and unless the destination is particularly child friendly the need for travel cots, gates etc makes the holiday load a bit much for airline travel. For this reason recent holidays have been UK based. The last couple of years have been spent in Cornwall at a friend's apartment but we thought that this year we would have a change. Having heard favourable...

Hands up who remembers Operation?
What a classic game that was. So simple, yet so deep. Essentially a test of maintaining a steady-hand, it's "don't touch the sides" mentality was, and perhaps still is, a family favourite. The amount of power you had more
Me and my girlfriend wanted a couple of days away so decided to go to hull (not quite sure why lol).
After a bit of searching on the internet the Campanile in Hull seemed nice and reasonably priced.
As we got there (after getting lost) we... more
This perfume is my favourite perfume at the moment! I got one of the limited edition bottles which has gold on the front of it so the bottle looks really bling bling. The size of the bottle I got was 50ml but it comes in different sizes of 35ml, 50ml and more
