But Heel Stop repairs this type of shoes starting at £4.95 for just heels. They have just repaired one of my favourite pairs of extra comfortable (but still high) shoes; high wedges that have a rubber soul which they managed to completely rejuvenate for £14.95. My boyfriend takes all his boots their too. We both walk everywhere so there is a lot of wear and tear. On top of their fantastic prices, all the gents behind the bar always greet you like they value your business and have real pride in their work. Oh they cut keys and sell numerous related goods too. Tucked away in the indoor market, where all the food stalls are is this great value shoe repairer. In fact the only downside is the food - I'm not a big meat eater so those stalls put me off slightly but if you're on the hunt for other great value traders, this is the place to head to.

Im coming out. I admit it, im a slut when it comes to cleaning my oven. Life is just too short…read more Ive lived in my current house for 8 years and, frankly, oven cleaning is right at the bottom of my list of priorities. I've done the usual - i clean the hob and i've sometimes stuck one of those awful oven cleaner thingies inside the oven (you know the ones with the plastic bags that look like they'd strip your soul clean but never manage to move much of the ground in grease from your cooker?) but lets face it, as long as the oven works and doesnt look like it has been used by The Young Ones (for those of you old enough to remember the show!) then its easy to ignore. Recently i had a flyer put through my door for OvenClean - its a national company but they have local franchises with the one in Birmingham being owned by Andy Mountford. The flyer had a £5 off deal attached to it so i hung it up on my (very clean) fridge and waited until payday. I initially asked for a quote from the main website and was informed that Andy would call me back - which he did within a few hours.Andy asked me what i wanted to be cleaned (i opted for both oven and hob) and was told that this would be £55 which included the £5 off. An appointment was made for later int he week. Andy turned up and set about performing his magic. He was a friendly chap and was happy to talk about what he was going to do (as well as a nice chat about how he started in the business and how it was going). First he took off all the ceramic parts of the hob and the metal shelves from inside the oven - these, along with my grill pan, would be 'boiled' inside the van whilst he set about cleaning the oven itself. The cleaning agents he uses are all environmentally friendly and i can certainly agree that there was none of those horrible caustic smells that you get from the oven cleaners you buy in the supermarket. I left Andy to it and about 90 minutes later he was done. OMG my grill pan looked like new and (drum roll please!) i could actually see through the glass door into my cooker! A brilliant job all around and good, friendly service. I know its lazy to get someone in to do it but my thought is that if you were to spend just £60 a year then its not such a big deal.....i can heartily recommend his services!

I was very lucky to have a night's stay in one of the penthouses- no. 2004, and it was lovely. The…read morebest night's sleep I can remember, so quiet up there, and the beds are very very comfortable. The Rotunda boasts the highest open balcony in Birmingham, so the views are really fabulous (although maybe not for the very faint of heart). The penthouse has one wall which is entirely floor to ceiling windows with a panoramic view of Birmingham and the Bullring, including St Martin's church. The apartment has two double (king) bedrooms, each with an en suite. One has a good sized bath with a rain head shower, both have hair dryers and bathrobes. The central living area, which contains a fully equipped kitchen, has a large flat screen TV with Sky TV plus an iPod dock with speakers. It's the little touches, and the service which makes this special. There is milk and oranges (for juicing) in the fridge, mueslis, ground coffee (from Urban Coffee) tea and hot chocolate. It's an eco conscious place with Ecover washing powders for the dishwasher and washing machine, and vegetarian shampoo and soaps. It is immaculately clean and the general manager Gavin is very approachable and helpful. With Twiggy-style models adorning the walls on canvas, if looks very cool too. The next day we felt totally zen. Worth coming back just for that!

When we needed an extension doing we shopped around for builders. I think I saw at least four or…read morefive different people in the end. I got the usual range of quotes too. As I've mentioned in another review, I tend to go on gut instinct as much as personal recommendation. Danny came recommended by a fellow builder who had done done work for my Dad. He's a decent guy, never messed us around and turned up when he said he would. As we were having quite a large job done I saw quite a bit of him and his colleagues. They wp were all nice guys, which is important they're around your home. The other major bonus for me was that they tidied up each day and never left us in a mess, or as little mess as possible. They weren't the cheapest around, but then I'm never swayed by that, and neither were they the most expensive either.
