    Lloyds is the big boy of private fitness clubs in Belfast - the biggest, the plushest and of course…read morethe most expensive. But it's definitely a case of getting what you pay for as there is a definite air of being upmarket and everything on offer that you could possibly want or need to occupy the whole family. Despite the freakish Northern Ireland spring weather, I went last weekend with my kids with guests of a friend who is a member, and we actually used the outdoor swimming pool. It was a very warm day and the water is nicely heated so it was a lovely experience. The kids loved it and I just wished it was hot enough to lounge on one of the sun beds beside the pool. There was an attentive life guard on duty to satisfy over anxious parents like me. The changing facilities are a treat too - warm and luxurious with great showers and nice toiletries. None of your 20p a time hair dryers here. There is also a shop where we bought swimming goggles and fit flops (I know, I know, I have a problem), a hair and beauty salon and a creche for under 5s. David Lloyds is the most luxurious health club I have used and I loved it. It's the kind of place I was born to use. Now all I have to do is talk the husband into forking out for the family membership fee.

    A great gym,although expensive it is worth it for the indoor tennis courts and outdoor swimming…read morepool. David Lloyd's is huge and has more to offer than any other local gym.

    One of my friends lived in Bangor for a few years, and we went through a bit of a heath kick for a…read morefew months and resolved to go swimming every Saturday morning, and this is where we used to come, as it was within walking distance of her house (walking there was another part of the health kick!) They have a 25 metre pool with seperate pool for children, and my favourite, a diving pool with three diving boards! In addition to this, they have one large and one medium sized sports halls, a state of the art gym, sauna, and sunbed suiet, if you fancy frying yourself to get that, erm, golden glow. Just off the main hall they also have a lounge and cafeteria area, which serves a good range of food, although unfortunately nonw of it was terribly healthy, which was sometimes a bit of a temptation!

    This place is a little bit aged and could be a bit more modern, but thats because it has been…read morearound forever and the new leisure centre is being built so there is no point in them doing up this place. It has all the amenitites that you could expect - swimming pool, five-a-side pitches and squash courts etc. It also has a really good gym that is really well priced. If you're a student you can get unlimited access for only £20 a month over 3 months which is a much better deal than in the likes of Fitness First. There are better appointed and better staffed leisure centres in the world but I think the prices here are good and you could do an awful lot worse. It has a good car park and that you don't have to pay for and its right in the middle of town. So you don't have any real reason not to call in here to exercise a bit.

    The Odyssey Pavilion many moons ago used to be THE place to go, but it has become the last word in…read morefaded glory as it has died a long slow death by a thousand cuts (or small disappointments) which date back to shortly after it originally opened. The first sign of this that always springs to mind (and maybe those who remember it opening) was the big installation piece right beside the escalators that take you up to the foyer of the cinema. For those who done remember it there was/is 3 cosentric rings, made of a similar tarpaulin material as the roof that looked like donught/smoke signals that were raised and lowered through each other. I recall it only working for about 3 months after the pavilion originally opened, when it broke after such a short time, it was never repaired. Now, if you can see it at al the big donught structures are lying at the bottom, deflated and covered by several cms of dust. This theme then read over the years as place after place sprung up to replace the previous, act as short lived as the one before. This wasn't great in and of itself but it seems now that for the last few years potential investors who may have thought that they could make something work in the pavilion have given up. Now, virtually the whole place is vacant, leaving the frontage of the last of each of the restaurants and bars to inhabit the units. As you go up the escalator to the cinema, the frontage of the last place to be in the unit under the foyer is still up despite its closing some 5 or so years ago! I go here for the cinema, they have good deals and there is oddly, a feeling of an event to going here for a movie. But really, without this, I can't see that I would ever come back here any more. The feeling of sadness around here is almost tangible now!!!! I hope someone comes up with a plan to turn this place around, I'll keep going for the cinema, but my interest in the Odyssey is now hanging by that 1 thread.

    There are a few things on offer around the pavilion, restaurants, bar etc but the atmosphere (when…read morethere is nothing on in the arena) is non existent and some of the restaurants don't even open mid week. There is also a couple of random bouncy castles which make it feel like s deserted area of Portrush! The place could do with a revamp (which I here is in the pipeline) so watch this space!
