We ordered 3 carpets from Downtown Grantham…read more The first one was fitted a couple of months ago and is fine. The second one came a couple of weeks ago and after fitting we could tell that they had fitted a cheap underlay rather than the better quality more expensive one that we had been charged for, had to have the carpet taken up and the correct underlay fitted but the carpet isn't as well fitted now as the first one. The third carpet was due to be fitted tomorrow on the stairs. This evening Downtown called to cancel and reschedule for the end of next week. As we had removed the stair carpet today in preparation we now have 8 days with exposed gripper rods on the stairs. With 2 dogs and a child this is a real cause for concern. Very disappointed with Downtown service and needless to say the 3rd carpet will be the final one we ever purchase from Downtown, will be looking elsewhere for the remaining ones that we need.

Oldrids has been in Boston FOREVER. I can remember going to the cafe upstairs with my mum when I…read morewas little and having a ham roll and a glass of milk before spending my birthday money in the AMAZING toy department. Nowadays I'm not so much for the toys, more for the kitchen bit downstairs, which is excellent, and the perfume department. I went in a couple of weeks ago and had a look at some fancy shoes but the two women at the till there looked at me as though I was a bag lady and needed ejecting. I felt very, very uncomfortable. I think it was because I was wearing linen trousers and flip flops and my hair was a bit messy, but whatever it was, it was like that bit in Pretty Woman where the shoplady is mean to the prozzie. Anyway, Oldrids is a well stocked, well laid out department store, which on the whole is deserving of a visit if you're on a shopping trip and need some knickers or tights or makeup or perfume or a griddlepan, and don't mind paying a bit more for it, or if you just want a cup of coffee in a place where you can peek out over the main pedestrian bit and laugh at the chavs, but beware the grumpy staff is all I'll say. Just to clarify, I'm not a prostitute.

You name it. The staff are very friendly and pleasant, always on hand to help. I myself am saving up for Xmas (coming to quick) and they have some great ideas for presents too. My advice, save up a bit, put some money aside and go and treat yourself from time to time. At 'House of Fraser' their is something there for everyone!

Queensgate shopping centre is a modern and well designed shopping centre in the heart of…read morePeterborough shopping area. It has two multi story car parks which have always seemed very safe and secure when I have visited them. If you use the one closest to the centre you do not have to go outside. You access the centre via a road bridge from the car park. The main bus station is situated just below the shopping area with escalators and lifts to take you straight to the shops. Queensgate is clean and spacious with plenty of shops to keep you busy for the day and if you require the need of more shops its many exits lead you out onto other shopping streets in Peterborough. There are plenty of places to eat or get a soft drink. I do feel there could be more toilet facilities but as many of the stores do have customer toilets it's not a major problem.

At peak times it can be a bit of a nightmare getting into the car park, so be prepared for a bit of a wait, a week before Christmas last year on a week day I was stuck in the queue for the car park for an hour! The majority of the major stores are located in the shopping centre as well as plenty of eating places.
