A review of a printer and copier place? Sounds dull but this is such a great little place I had to…read moremention it. We use this printer company at my place of work and the attitude we encounter every single time is so refreshing - everyone is cheerful and eager to help if possible and if you've missed any detail from your order they'll be straight on the phone to check everything and make sure you get what you need. The efficiency is quite remarkable here. I've known them turn round full colour printing jobs in a few hours and it's become an in-house joke where I work where we almost have a sweepstake on how soon they'll get back to us. We use recycled paper and that's easily done at Colourcopy so there's an environmentally friendly side to them too. Finally the quality of the job they do is first class. Our printing requirements are always done to the highest quality and everything they've done for us has been spot on.

It looked like they had a decent amount of kit in there and offer large banner printing etc and the prices seem reasonable. As a web designer I'm not generally fussed with printed material so on the occasions I need something printing it's good to know there is a reliable business around the corner.

I've been back several times now, to bring new life to old shoes, and I have to say that these…read morechaps are fantastic. En route to town, I dropped in my solid favourite heels to be fixed up, and was greeted by the ever friendly and welcoming guys that man the shop. I'm sure one of them must be Steve, and one day I might venture to ask which one, but on this occasion I wasn't so brave as to make introductions. It costs just over a fiver to get re-heeling done, and I've never been in without being able to collect the shoes about 30 minutes later. Basically, it gives you enough time to pop off for a coffee, take in the world, and pop back again before going about your day. Of course, if you need keys cut, and the various other cobbler odd jobs, they're ready to provide good service for that too. They're always smiling, they're cheap and cheerful, they're fantastic and I've them to thank for not having to buy new shoes. It's always a pleasure. Cash only, but as Hannah says, there's a cash machine right next door!

Steve's is probably the most traditional business in the whole of Headingley - amidst a sea of…read morestudent pubs, bars and modern delis, it stands proud, providing ye olde cobbling and keycutting services for anyone who so desires. The keycutting services are as fast as they are cheap (very) and on the two occasions I've needed a key cut here, I've had no problems with the finished product working in my doors. Can't say I've ever needed to have a shoe cobbled though. I'm a firm believer in the if-a-shoe's-broke-bin-it school of thought, so I can't comment on Steve's shoe skills, but I'd wager they're as professional as his key-cutting skills are.

Last week my iPad wouldn't switch on properly and I have no clue how do anything other than use it…read more I brought my iPad in for repair, while I did my Xmas shopping in Leeds. The staff where very polite and helpful, unlike some shops I could name. They told me what the problem was within minutes. The staff explained it simply in a way I understood without all the techno-bable. I was able to leave it will them and collect about 90 minutes later as good as new. Next time I have any problems on my computers or phones I will be paying a visit to the computer assistant. I would definately recommend if you live or work in or near Leeds.

They offer loads of other services aside from dry cleaning such as; laundry and ironing services, garment repairs, key cutting and shoe repairs. The prices are very reasonable and they are always efficient and polite.

I really like them. I like the way they smell, and I like how cosy and warm it is when you sit by the dryers, and in McClary's, I like how there's a drinks machine, and a TV, and some magazines, and lots of plants and greenery, and pretend tongue and groove on the walls, and plenty of big plastic washing baskets for everyone to use. It's never so busy that I've had to wait to wash or dry anything here, which is ace. Also, the guy who works there is quite nice to look at and very friendly.

What can I say? For me it was the perfect solution to my laundry problem. The guy running it was…read morereally really nice. Helped me with everything. Nice manners. And yea thedryers can dry a load of wash very veryyy quickly(it took me 20 min).

Burley Lodge is a 'community anchor' organisation in Leeds, which runs several projects each year…read moreregarding the development and improvement of the lives of Leeds locals. They offer support and structure to many people and work alongside other organisations as a charity. Members of the organisation include families, individuals, volunteers, and partners. Two of my close friends work for Burley Lodge and really enjoy what they do. They have been given opportunities they would not find in many other jobs such as community development training and stand by it as an organisation that makes a positive difference and impact on the community involved. Some of the key projects running at the moment are: Kids United and United Youth Burley Lodge United Burley Lodge Advice Centre

It is a…read moreregistered charity that specialises in providing services that benefit local residents in a variety of ways. It provides activities for children and families to improve confidence and life skills, work placements for those seeking employment and financial and housing advice. The building was refurbished in 2007 and has a bright, clean and airy feel. There are good-sized rooms available to hire for workshops and events, and this provides part of the income for the centre, so is money well spent. The staff, some of whom are volunteers, are very friendly and welcoming, and there always seems to be a few youngsters running about, which gives the place a lively and dynamic atmosphere. Burley Lodge provides a focal point for the community and with its clean modern feel and range of excellent services, ensures that local residents feel valued and cared for.

A brand new extractor would cost £170, doesnt take a genius to guess my answer. Anyway just thought I'd take down the extractor myself as I was planning on buying a replacement only to discover that the fan was loose and a tightening a few screws solved the problem. I think it's safe to say I won't be calling out these experts again.

Once it was established that they were no longer available, he proceeded to take a closer look at the filter, and guess what, he actually took time out to repair it, at no cost to me. I was so impressed with this service that I mentioned that my fridge was on the blink too, on telling him the problems it was agreed that it would not be worth repairing , I then ordered a new under counter fridge and a small under counter freezer too. I was very impressed with his service and time and effort he gave me, I felt I had to write a review to let others know of their excellent service.

In many cases the Oxfam shops sell second hand clothing at ridiculous prices under the guise of vintage, and I've even seen Primark clothing on sale there for a little more than it sells brand new! But Oxfam books is a shade different. Here there are literally hundreds of different books on sale. As with the standard Oxfam shops, some of these are a little overpriced, but with so much variety it's hard not to find a bargain in here. There are lots of popular texts, but also some really quirky old books, which have that lovely antique vibe. I wanted to find some specialist literature based around gender studies and feminist non-fiction and found a far better range and highlighted section than even Borders - which had merged those texts in with lesbian erotica! Oh the irony! Every item that I chose to purchase was super cheap and it was pleasing to know that some of my money, however much, should go to a good cause. A great gem of a bookshop for wee Headingley.

Oxfam Books is jolly good indeed. It is rather large and has clearly labelled sections with areas…read moreincluding gender studies, philosophy, gardening and much, much more. It's the kind of place you could spend forever in, browsing, reading, then curling up in a corner engrossed! It has a lovely, library-like feel to it with many other people flicking through pages and browsing the shelves. For the most part the books are very good value for money and the huge selection means you are absolutely guaranteed to find something you want to take away. They also sell a tasteful range of greetings cards. The staff seem lovely and you get the impression they really enjoy their job. Next time I have some pennies to rub together I'm definitely heading over there to stock up on books in preparation for springtime reading under a tree in my local park! Can't wait!
