Advantages: Lovely people and nice places to visit Disadvantages: Might be a bit sleepy for some
Let me begin by stating that I have no sense of direction and cannot drive so you will have to look up the exact locations of points of interest on Google maps or something similar! Fortunately, the centre of Lancaster is pretty easy to find your way around so I?ve managed not to get lost too much in the 5 years I have lived here.
THE CASTLE:
I am lucky enough to work in Lancaster?s most interesting tourist attractions, Lancaster Castle. Building began on the castle in the 11th century and the Norman Keep still remains to this day. It is a fascinating building which comprises a castle, a crown court and a Category C men?s prison which makes it truly unique! Tours are available around parts of the castle such as the old courtrooms and the dungeons which give visitors a flavour of the past. The tours are excellent and really ...
Advantages: Good place to visit Disadvantages: not a large amount of shops
As a Lancastrian I probably am a bit biast but I haven't lived there for six years now. It is well worth a visit as there are a number of things to see whilst you are there.

Advantages: I got it free Disadvantages: not very good
Fisher Price Peek-A-Blocks 2 in 1 Activity Wagon....
This was a hand me down from one of my friends for Jack and because her kids seemed to enjoy it so much I really thought Jack would too. Jack has a lot of the Peek A Blocks range of toys (some of which given by said friend) and he really enjoys playing with the blocks and using them with the different toys.
The wagon itself is fairly large and after a brief look on the internet I found out that it would cost around £20 to buy new but there are plenty being sold as second hand and at a far more reasonable price. The Wagon comes with eight individual Peek a Blocks that are small plastic cubes with different things inside to look at or to shake, turn or just to look at.
The blocks themselves are very hard wearing and because there are so many different toys in the Peek ...
