Advantages: Gorgeous location, so much to see and do Disadvantages: None!
I've lived in the Forest of Dean my whole life (nearly 33 years) and completely taken it for granted! It's really only been in the last few years, since we had our son, that we have started to enjoy our home, with it's breathtaking scenery, abundance of family activities and friendly atmposphere, so I thought I would share it all with you. Brace yourselves, it's a long one!
Here comes the history bit!
The Forest of Dean was firstly recognised by the Saxons and covers 110 square kilometers or 27000 acres of woodland. It is one of the few remaining Royal forests left in England and has a rich history as a favourite hunting ground for many of our historical kings. The vast amount of woodland is home to many animals and birds, but Forest pride is mainly given to the beautiful fallow deer. There are about 400 here, of which ...

Advantages: A decent performance from Abigail Breslin. Disadvantages: Zeta-Jones can't do comedy and neither can the director.
and strings that suit the frothy subject matter. His chiming piano and strutting strings reflect the order Kate requires in her kitchen, though Glass then undermines himself by turning them syrupy. He employs syncopated piano motifs that resemble a heartbeat for her bedside vigil, which becomes steadily darker as it progresses. He tends towards the mawkish with sad piano and flute sections that seems a calculated attempt to push our emotional buttons. The most effective use of music comes with the jazzy brass and frantic themes for when Nick and Zoe are making pizza. It's a shame the rest of the soundtrack doesn't match up, with Michael Bublé's version of "Sway", refrains of "S'Wonderful" and "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" sitting at odds with Glass' solid groundwork.
"No Reservations" is a syrupy chick flick that will appeal if you like its leads ...
Advantages: flight times, good seating Disadvantages: could be more toilets on the Boeing 767 of RBA
Flew with Royal Brunei in August 2007 from London to Brunei and return. Check in at Heathrow handled by Aviance well organised. They also have some of their own staff in RBA uniform handling the operation alongside Aviance. I got a fast track through security however the queues looked very long and I felt very sorry for those who had to stand in line. Waited at gate for around 30-40 minutes before boarding, which is done row-by-row from the front to the back of the aircraft. Once onboard the pilot notified us of a 15 minute delay due to congestion which is very normal at peak time for Heathrow (9:40 in the morning). We began taxying and then stopped at the runway where we waited for about 10 (yes, 10) other planes to tkae off before us.
Once we took off the entertainment system started. This is an average system which is AVOD - has ...
