Two kick ass balloons (one a giant silver foil number 2...as in the number, not the bodily function... not that you'd be expecting that, but just in case....oooh, i'm in a big hole) filled with floaty gas for aout 15 notes... pricey but cool. Oh and an update on the staff.... this time i was the grumpy frazzled one and she the nice friendly one... sometimes we can be too quick to judge!

This is the ultimate in tacky, novelty shopping, with everything from big bright balloons plastered…read moreall over the walls, to hen party costumes for the unashamedly tacky. From the moment you walk in the door, your eyes will be assaulted by the garish surroundings, you can't help but laugh. Since it specialises in party decorations and dressing up gear, it can be forgiven for being a little bit over the top and this just adds to its weird and wacky wonderfulness.

Cabbie: 'Where to mate?' Me: 'LA Group in Tradeston'…read moreCabbie: '?' Me: '?' Cabbie: 'Hmmmm' Me: 'Hmm, if only I had a wonderful app that could allow me to search for a business, locate it on a map and offer directions to said business' Cabbie: 'You're a bit odd.' Me: ' Bananas to you good sir, follow the blue dot!' This is indeed a strange, hidden, Alice in Wonderland type place, located in a trading estate not a kick in the bottom away from the Grand Ole Opry. It's a bar-tending school.... I know! But it offers a great private venue, with excellent working bar, workable space (the walls were covered in work from the Papergirl art project), and friendly staff. It's a nice place and, I imagine, one that can be altered to suit whatever function/group it happens to be hosting. So what is it? Well, I suppose it has to go down as an event space or venue. But as these spaces go, it's really quite a cool, intimate and would certainly get you 'wow... cool' points from your friends/work colleagues, upon discovering it. Check it out.

I had my son's party here in late may 09 and the staff were utterly professional from the moment we…read morearrived till the moment we left. Their service was just fabby- the kids food arrived in those little cardboard trains that held a couple of sandwiches, fruit, a handful of crisps, a cup of juice and a napkin. Whilst the kids ate, the ladies asked the adults if they would like a tea/coffee. I had brought little masks for the kids to colour in whilst everyone arrived and whilst the food was served and it turned out that a mask was part of the prize for their pass the parcel, so they dug out another pass the parcel prize. After we sang happy birthday, the kids went into another room for half an hour of games (before the puppet show itself) and the girl managed to control 15 kids and got them to follow the party games. I expected the kids to be running around wildly but they followed everything she said. The party games were from a cd with funky music and I dont recall any other party having this, so the kids thought it was a great novelty. Whilst we were in there, the ladies tidied up all the pressies and all the mess into a bin bag, so when we came back after the show, everything was there. The kids loved the puppet show. I'd recommend this venue- fantastic service and great staff.

I've only eaten twice though had a fair amount of drink filled evenings! The food options for vegans are limited but they do try which is appreciated. Prices are reasonable at the bar (which added to the drink filled evenings!) though perhaps not such a great selection of choice. For a function in Renfrewshire its very decent.
