I therefore ordered two further pairs of curtains in October for my living room and again cannot fault the service and product received. From the very start of the process right up until fitting Pret a Vivre were excellent. The help I received in the shop and by email / telephone following my initial visit was brilliant - Claire in particular is extremely helpful and always responded very promptly to my queries. The time between order and fitting was also far shorter than expected. The curtains themselves are lovely and are very well designed and made. I was also impressed with the fitting - as soon as the curtains were hung they were steamed to make sure they were sitting perfectly. I cannot recommend Pret a Vivre more and will definitely go back to have more curtains made in the future.

IT'S TRAVEL SEASON, BAYBEE!…read more I've been using Travel WIFI for many of my recent trips last year. I honestly have never had a problem with this company as they are so responsive, wonderful customer service and the device is very reliable! Let me admit that using their device truly helps from getting billed a huge amount for roaming charges from a mobile carrier. I've used travel WIFI for over 3+ of my trips out of the country and the process to sign up has been very easy. I have used them to go to Mexico, Canada, Asia, Italy, and Trinidad. I usually go to their website here: https://travelwifi.com/ and enter the country that I will be visiting. I go for the basic purchase and three days before my trip, I receive a UPS package with my device. On top of that, I even get a free return package to send the device back. During my stay, I get continued emails checking in to see if I am enjoying the device and asking if I have a question. A few days before the device is supposed to be returned, I received an email informed me that I could keep the de4vice if I wanted to for a fee. Not really needed in my situation, but nice that they give this as an option. The prices are very reasonable and not too much. The device charges in about 2 hours and last on a good charge for over 10 hours. I also like that multiple devices can use the WIFI box simultaneously. I can agree with some of the Yelpers about the spotty service although the device says there is the internet, there were times where it wasn't working. But honestly, it was not the fault of the device so I can't blame it on the company. There are times where it will take long periods of time searching for a signal, maybe it was the location of the places that made it spotty. In all honesty, it's a WIFI box, don't have high expectations to get service 100% of the time. If you lower your standards, I promise you won't be disappointed. I will continue to use this company to order a WIFI box when I am going to visit any country. **Make sure they give you the new devices; the old devices don't work and the chargers don't work for the device. **

Nevertheless I proudly paraded around until I sat next to a passenger on the tube, who made a funny face. Not thinking anything bad I was back in my flat. The next morning I wake up in a cloud of goat odor! Since then I pack the leather bag in two rubbish bags, to avoid that my little flat smells of goat.

I am glad Trellick tower is close to ours and I'm happy we have a good friend living there, because…read morewhen the Zombie apocalypse is gonna hit, where am I gonna run to?- Trellick tower! is the answer. It's tall and tricky to climb. Many stairs and elevators with loads of buttons- zombies can't use those things. tee-hee. Anyway, back to serious things: Trellick tower is the most famous piece of council house architecture in London. It was designed by Erno Goldfinger in 1966 for the "Greater London Council". Erno based his design on Trellick's sister from East London- Balfron Tower. The whole construction was completed in 1972 and the tower consists of 31 storeys and 217 flats. Woohoooo! But things were never like this: even though Trellick is considered an arhitectual symbol, in it's notorious heyday it was known for the (social) problems, racial tension, troubled youths, rapes and drugs. Lookie here, the Guardian describes it perfectly: "With luck, one of the tower's three lifts would be working. Fresh graffiti, used condoms and a passed-out vagrant might have been waiting inside when the doors parted. The 12-person aluminium box, shaped like a coffin, would grind upwards at 1.5 metres per second. Often it would stop at the wrong floor, open into darkness and the sound of dripping water, then resume the ascent. One Christmas, vandals on the 12th floor opened the fire hydrant and unleashed thousands of gallons of water into the lifts, blowing fuses and leaving the block without electricity, heat, water or toilet facilities. Grind up another three floors and you would be where a 27-year-old woman was dragged from the lift and raped. Down the same corridor a depressed young mother jumped to her death. On the 21st floor, an 11-year-old girl was dragged from a lift into the chute room and attacked. If there was a figure huddled in a doorway, it was best not to check. It could have been a prostitute waiting for business, an addict shooting up, an imminent squatter or a neighbour, fumbling for a key. This was Trellick Tower. To newspapers it was the Tower of Terror or Colditz in the Sky, to residents it was hell" I hear, the most memorable story about the Trellick Tower (compared to the horror- the Shining wanna be other stories) was a the man who parachuted from the 30th floor, but sadly, he didnt make it. (http://www.guardian.co.uk/theguardian/1999/mar/11/features11.g28 the rest of the article, it's really good.) As this article puts it, "Trellick's transformation is the closest urban renewal gets to fairytale - one which planners hope will become a model for Britain". The actual flats are like puzzles.. Also, the sliding doors to the balconies are just amazing and the terraces are big. I wish i had one... :( After 1999, a big changed happened and just look at it now! - Trellick is sparkling! it's clean and safe, it's adored by architects and photographed by tourists, it's painted by local artists (who gives all his masterpieces to the tenants), it appears in movies and adds. Trellick Tower is absolutely brilliant.
