    Bye bye little town of Sleaford with a big heart..The National Centre for Craft and Design is…read morelocated here. It is really a smart art and educational experience located in the open fens. There is a well appointed gift shop and several galleries located throughout the building. Talked with an artist in residence who was from the north of UK but was using the local landscape and leavings from the fields to create a work of art. Our conversation revealed her thoughtfulness and adept ability to connect with her temporary community in quick reply. The residents change frequently and I look forward to another visit. The artwork is fresh and vibrant and while obviously a school and not the work of mature artists in the later stages of careers is exactly why this is so engaging.

    We ended up in the centre for coffee as all the other places were busy. Previously it was called…read morethe "Hub". The interior is vast for a coffee shop. It is connected to a little shop where you can buy arty gifts. Lots of space for children to run around and their parents to watch. One cup of a hot drink and cake are enough before or after to start an exhibition tour upstairs. The hot drinks are nothing special. My hot chocolate was too sweet, much to sweet to drink. The current exhibition is on the last floor, called the roof room. Lovely views onto the landscape surroundings You can take the lift and/or stairs. If taking the stairs you might notice all the little historical items along the window frames, like an old commodore 64 keyboard, Heinz bean can and many more. Finally managing the top floor you enter a room with low lights. The reason being that the current single displays are working its brilliance in darkness with some light reflections conjuring water dynamics. Its the miracle of endless time and space twinned with human spirituality. There is lots for you to ponder about and you might be confused. Still, a short visit does not harm. Alexis Rago is the current artist showing off his clay forms until the 17th November. Not long to go! I like to go back there for another exhibition soon.

    I reserved Crazee Bongo's for my kids' 5th and 4th birthday parties and had also planned for Heroes…read moreAssemble to perform (spiderman act); the venue was completely aware of this and said there was no problem. However, a staff member protested to me midway through the Heroes Assemble performance that they were not permitted to be there, I requested to speak to the manager because I had been assured there would be no problem when I had booked the party. When the owner (Kate Mason) approached me, I could sense she was hostile, she stated I hadn't informed them that Spider-Man would be there because if I had, she as the owner would have known about it and it would have been in the diary. She accused me of lying multiple times and said I hadn't told anyone. After five minutes of back-and-forth argument, she then rolled her eyes at me, I said I thought she was rude and unprofessional, to which she responded that I was aggressive and how could I see if she had rolled her eyes because the room was dark! (I was not aggressive in any way; I was just shocked that this woman was actually arguing with me at my children's party). I've never encountered anyone so insolent, let alone from someone who states they are the company's owner! This is a condensed account of the obnoxious behaviour Kate displayed toward me (a paying customer!) The other young women employed there were lovely and we encountered no problems. However, I will no longer use or recommend Crazee Bongos due to the unneeded stress that Kate created.
