I went to my first belly dancing class at the dome and loved it. I went with a friend out of fear…read moreof embarrasment. It was great! I didn't have to get my tummy out at all! The other students were very nice and the dancing was more energetic than I thought but it was so much fun! I went in a long skirt and tank top, which i would advise as it made me feel great and have more fun. One of my friends went in jeans and found it very uncomfortable. We have lots of fun the instructor is very patient and encouraging. She got the best out of us on our first lesson and we have been every tuesday since!!

Having first been to Garage in 2010 to see my best friend's band play, this place (that used to be…read moreRed's) is a real cornerstone for me growing up in Doncaster. The bar is really well laid out with great furnishings and a funky purple pool table in the centre - which is 50p a game as opposed to most places which charge £1 a game (or in the case of Ballers - also on Silver Street - £4 for an hour.... who charges by the hour?!) There's a jukebox, some orange sofas akin to The Sims, and a great picture of Dave Grohl wearing a flower halo on the wall beside the entrance. The drinks are really cheap - last time I visited it cost me £2.70 for a jack & coke, and £1.20 for a pint of diet pepsi (I don't judge the non-drinkers I buy for!) Usually, they have -bombs really cheap as well, and a great DJ playing. If you're in Doncaster and fancy an evening in a bar with "real music", then Garage is the place to go.

Second visit and still only slightly impressed. Worth visiting the area around it for a wind down.read more

The Keepmoan stadium is for all of those who keep moaning about their team and their players and…read morewishing an oil baron would come and buy them. First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I had an absolutely fantastic time at Keepmoat when I was here in 2011. I played a concert in Doncaster and then came here the very next afternoon, before my evening concert in Sheffield. The fans were much louder and more intense than I expected, and my friend that brought me (he owned the hotel where I was staying in Doncaster) turned out to be a rabid fan too. I absolutely loved every second of it, but if I'm rating it strictly on the facilities, then it's a 4. Just because it's not usually full and would be even more amazing if it could be packed every week. I've been to most UK & US stadiums, due to lifelong obsessions with travel, sport & especially footy (soccer to Americans). Born & raised in England, I followed Oxford United (hometown team) to stadia all over the country at away games, and later Liverpool (fave team) around. Every stadium review - like all my reviews - are from first-hand personal experience, usually from several visits. In 2011, I was on music tour in the UK, and visited most stadiums for fun in my spare time. As recently as Fall 2014, when I was "stuck" in UK for 3 months, I went to hundreds yet again while travelling. I have pictures of me at most, which I'll post later. Also, when back in UK I'll take more pix, and add more stadia! *** return to regular review *** The fans here don't always create the best atmosphere, but it's a really lovely new stadium, and is excellent size wise and facilities wise for a city like Doncaster. If you ever visit Doncaster, stay at the lovely Caribbean B & B. It hosts 15k and is all-seater and very impressive on every level.
