...~~ Metropolitan ~~ The other evening I had the good fortune to be offered a free meal at the Metropolitan in Stourbridge. They were hosting a Psychic Supper event, which comprised of a two course meal and a reading with one or more of the mediums present, this was all for £18.00 per person. Sadly I didn't get to have a reading as I was one of the mediums working for my supper. But everyone that goes gets at least one message. ~~ The Bar ~~ The bar area is very modern with wooden parquet flooring, aluminium chairs with wooden seats and a matching design with the tables, there are comfy leather sofa's and leather cube seats dotted around the perimeter. It is a very spacious room and has a clean up market feel about it with an ambience of Art Deco and minimalist, yet very modern. There is also an outside patio area just... Read review

...My sister got a free weekend in Prague for two through work She asked me to come along, and after much umming and ahhing, I decided that little harm could come to my husband if I spent a weekend in Prague without him. So she provided me with a guidebook for Prague, so I could decide what I would like to. Among the recommended sites was the Police Museum. It did warn though that it was not for squeamish visitors. I decided that since I'd managed to survive The London Dungeon, I could cope with this and I was interested. If you have read some of my previous reviews, you will know that I am interested in crime fiction, and real crimes and their detection are no less interesting to me. So on the first day, I dragged my sister to see it. Fortunately she's not squeamish either. It was a fair walk from Wenceslas Square where our hotel was... Read review

...The Sheffield Fire & Police Museum houses a unique collection of Fire and Police artefacts and memorabilia. It is run entirely by a team of dedicated volunteers, and is the largest volunteer run Museum of its kind in Britain. Until a few years ago this place was free to enter but these days the Museum is supported by ticket entry sales and donations. It is also a registered Educational Charity. The Museum occupies the original Victorian Fire and Police Station at West Bar, on the fringes of Sheffield City Centre. The new, modern South Yorkshire Police Headquarters is located just across the Road. For many years this Building had stood empty and derelict but it was acquired by a group of enthusiasts in 1982, who with assistance from Sheffield City Council turned this place into the Museum that we see today. Over the next three... Read review

...NEE NAA NEE NHAAA NEE NAAA. Watch out here come the police in the little tikes patrol police car, its been driven by a 4 year old the police man could be between the age of 1 and 5 as it will be big enough inside for them. There is only room for one patrol officer in this car and no space for prisoners behind him. This police patrol car is a version of the cosy coupe you often see children driving around in these cars from little tikes are very popular in childcare settings This car is ideal for the playground or inside in a large space. I did see one at toddler's world at the leisure centre in Dunstable. As you might imaginer this car is made out of plastic coloured blue with the word police on the doors (there are 2). There is a roof over the top of the car it is not an open vehicle. (Ideal little Johnny then can... Read review

Advantages: 30 levels of gameplay and a good story.
Disadvantages: No vibration or analog control.

...G-Police was a top-rated game when it was first released for the PS1, with good graphics and gameplay that's just difficult enough to be challenging without being so hard that you give up on it. Here's the scenario: It's the future, when Earth's resources have all been used up and mining colonies have sprung up on other worlds. Corporations have taken over from governments and make war on each other, so to keep order, the Government Police are created. The game is set in the mining domes on Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, and you are a G-Police pilot of a helicopter-type aircraft. There is a mystery surrounding the activities of two arms-tech corporations, Krakov and Nanosoft, and your objective is to keep the peace between the two without causing too many civilian casualties. Most levels are search and destroy missions, but some... Read review

...on all sides, her partner Peter is disgusted with the amount of time she spends on the investigation, and when she starts missing dinner dates this disgust increases. At work she is regarded as a joke and Otley goes out of his way to make Tennison look incompetent. But Tennison stands resilient at negativity towards her and shows utmost integrity. As the tension towards her grows, it becomes apparent that not only is she handling a personal crisis but it appears that the case she is working on could be the work of a serial killer murdering for over twenty years. Tennison has to address the fact that she is taking on the biggest case of not just a woman's career but of any police officer in the metropolitan police force since records began. Cast Helen Mirren .... DCI Jane Tennison Tom Bell .... DS Bill Otley John Benfield... Read review

Advantages: Can be fun for a while, good fun to blast people out of the sky.
Disadvantages: Is a hard game, controls are hard to get used to, gets boring quite quickly

...G-Police is a game of many differences and in my opinion quite a hard game to rate. I enjoyed the game until it started getting hard, which I have to say wasnt that far, I never made it to disc 2 for example. Being a person who doesnt like to lose I found it hard to stop playing but in the end boredom overcame my soul. Basically G-Police is game where you fly around in a helicopter like craft with guns attached to the side these include homing missles, sidewinders, special weapons, machine guns and more. You police the cities, each level you are given a mission to complete this could be anything from blasting the latest gang out of the evil infected atmosphere to protecting some ground units. You may have help in completing the mission ie you get some friends/allies to help you end the lives of many people innocent or otherwise... Read review
