Advantages: Interesting excursions Disadvantages: Hassle from drug pushers if you stay in the main resorts
When we arrived at the airport in Jamaica the first thing that annoyed me was the way the porters were demanding at least 2 US dollars to take your luggage a matter of a couple of hundred yards to your bus. I'd heard before I went that the hassle was tremendous, however, once we arrived at Runaway Bay it was much calmer than I'd expected.
We stayed in a hotel called the Ambience which, at the time we went, was self-catering. I think it's an all inclusive now. The hotel was really nice and clean and on most nights there was entertainment. We chose not to eat in the hotel as there was a little cafe/restaurant called the Recovery Cafe just across from the hotel which served homemade food at very reasonable prices. I particularly liked it because it was like sitting in the kitchen of somebody's house and there wasn't a plate or a piece ...
Advantages: Accessible, attractive, atmospheric Disadvantages: Covers too small an area
As you walk west towards the sunset along the beach at Le Crotoy, the rattle of shingle soon gives way to the soft crunch of seashells in the sand beneath your feet. Before long you are away from the town and the only other sound to be heard is from out in the estuary, a mixed chorus of gulls, geese and sandpipers. They rise and fall in flurries amid the creeks in the grey-green mud. Dusk descends, and a red navigation light flashes out to sea. When you turn to retrace your footsteps, a trail of luminescent dots discloses the habitations on the far side of the bay of the Somme.
* Why go, and how? *
Even the most enthusiastic advocates (like me) of overnight shopping/eating/drinking trips to France have to admit that the area around Calais and Boulogne does sometimes become a bit overrun with English visitors (like me ...

Advantages: tasty addition to stews and cassorole Disadvantages: maybe to strong for your taste
Bay is an everygreen herb which grows like a shrub, it can be grown in open spaces or in tubs.
The flowers of the bay are yellow and it will flower in may.
The best way to get a bay plant is to buy one from a garden centre for around 99p depending on the size. I also like to get my herbs from bootsales where you can pick them up from 25p so saves money.
When your bay plant is well established in the pot re-plant it outside. It likes to be in a sunny but shaded place in the garden.
They may die off in the winter but should throw new shoots during the following spring.
Bay is a native to the east mediterranean but have been grown in europe for years. They are a very popular herb to grow in your herb garden as they have a good use in cookery. You can use the leaves dried or fresh.
Bay leaves have a very strong aromatic ...
