Welcome to the December edition of the

What’s Good To Do newsletter

Firstly we would like to say a very big thank you to all of you, our website users, for helping our website grow. We are very happy

to announce that we have had a record 2 MILLION HITS on our website during November! We have had a great year finding

things to review with theatre show likes Ghost, The Lion King, Thriller Live, War Horse and my favourite Ha Ha Holmes with Joe

Pasquale. We have also have some great restaurant reviews from small tea rooms to large national chains such as Frankie &

Bennies, Giraffe, Table Table, Brewers Fayre and Beefeater. We have also visited theme parks and attractions, been to Normandy,

and have reviewed hundreds of books, dvds and other products. We hope that you enjoy reading our reviews and maybe they

have inspired your own days out ideas or helped you make up your mind about making a purchase.

My favourite reviews of the year that I have been privileged to do were, as I mentioned earlier, Ha Ha Holmes with Joe

Pasquale - an extremely funny theatre show based on Sherlock Holmes and The Hound of the Baskervilles (and I’m not a big fan

of his), Stephen King’s Doctor Sleep – which is the follow up book to The Shining and the one that surprised me most was a

children’s book (aimed at 8-11 year olds), The Befana Drama by Gianna Hartwright - this is a magical story that children and adults

will love about Italy’s VIPB (Very Important Present Bringer) and her quest to save her festival as Santa Claus is ready to take it

over! And very recently I have enjoyed the London Ghost Bus Tour and the educational London Time Tour Bus (review on page 4).

We hope that you continue to keep reading our website, magazine and newsletter and finding What’s Good To Do and we wish

you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Featured Review

London Time Tour Bus

www.timetour.co.uk

Reviewed by David Savage

On Saturday 23 November we went on a bus tour in London - but this

was no ordinary tour. The Time Tour Bus is an alternative sightseeing

tour around the city with Professor Quantum as your quirky tour guide.

We arrived at bus stop number 8 on Northumberland Avenue outside

the Grand Hotel, just off Trafalgar Square, just before the 2.45pm

departure time. The easiest way to get there is by tube to Charing

Cross and is a 5 minute walk from the tube station to the bus stop.

Parked at the bus stop was a black 1960s double-decker Routemaster bus where we were greeted by Professor Quantum, who is

a quirky cross between Doctor Who and Doc from Back to the Future (who wears 2 sets of glasses). We boarded the bus fitted

with tele-visual plasma screens, video cameras and a time phone, went upstairs and took our seats waited for the travel back

though time around the London streets!

For approximately 1 hour 15 minutes (this may last longer depending on traffic) we were driven around London (the driver was a

robot called Metal Face – although he doesn’t know he is a robot so you are not allowed to mention it to him!). Professor

Quantum takes you back through time showing you all the famous sights from Trafalgar Square, The Houses of Parliament,

Westminister Abbey, Downing Street, St. Paul’s Cathedral, The Tower of London, Tower Bridge, London Bridge and more. He

entertains you with historical facts about each place along with his own personal experiences of when he was there before and

who he met (I won’t go into detail to spoil it for you). Along the way he will even have a video chat with historical figures with his

time phone and plasma screens!

After the tour has finished Professor Quantum will then take you back through time, as long as he remembers to fit a part that fell

off at the start of the tour, to be back at the place you started from on Northumberland Avenue!

Overall, this is a fun and educational tour seeing the sites of London and learning the history about them. Professor Quantum is

quirky and slightly mad and interacts extremely well with passengers, especially the children, and getting them to join in with fun

and asking questions. This is a great way of seeing the city with humour and theatrics while still be given all the relevant history

behind London and its sites. This is a history lesson that kids and adults will enjoy.

The London Time Tour Bus is a great family friendly interactive tour from a charming but eccentric Professor Quantum. We highly

recommend it – education and fun combined, what could be better?

There is a tour every Saturday and Sunday at 2.45pm with daily tours during school holidays. Tickets cost £14 for children under

15, OAP's and Students, £20 for adults or £55 for a family ticket (2 adults, 2 children).

Rating: 5/5. For more information or to book tickets visit www.timetour.co.uk.

Featured Article We are now in December with Christmas

fast approaching, some love it, some hate

it and some find it extremely stressful -

but it doesn’t have to be!

Christmas is ranked as the sixth most

stressful event in your life but with some

planning you can reduce the stress and drama and enjoy the

holidays.

Set yourself a budget and stick to it - don’t decide that

because Christmas comes but once a year you can splash

the cash and credit cards. Decide what you can

realistically afford to spend on gifts, food, travel and

socialising.

Make a list of the people your need to buy presents for

and how much you are willing to spend on each person,

sticking within your budget. If you have a large group of

friends maybe do a Secret Santa where one person buys

another a gift, this reduces the cost for everyone and

adds a bit of fun as well.

Don’t leave your Christmas food or present shopping

until the last minute, there is nothing worse than having

to rush around the shops on Christmas Eve - do a little

bit each week with your normal shop and try to do your

shopping on weekday mornings when it’s not so busy

instead on weekends. If buying online why not see if

they retailer offers a gift wrapping service.

You will want to go out socialising over Christmas and

will often find yourself drinking more or being

encouraged to drink more than you are comfortable

with. It is possible to enjoy yourself and have a few

drinks without going overboard. Know your limits and

stick to them. Eat a good meal before going out. Drink a

glass of glass of water between alcoholic drinks and buy

smaller drinks (i.e, half a pint instead of a pint). You will

still have a great night but not suffer for it the next

morning.

If you are planning on visiting family let then know in

advance how long you will staying and don’t outstay

your welcome. This will save any misunderstanding and

reduce tension.

Make travel plans in advance so you are not rushing

around - the more you can sort out beforehand the bet-

ter relaxed you will be.

Remember, Christmas only lasts a couple of days.

If you are stuck for Christmas gifts idea why not take a look

through our website and read reviews of some great products

like Drumond Park’s Wordsearch Junior or Catch Phrase board

games. Maybe you are stuck for ideas for the man in your life?

Read our review of the Vivabox for Him - 7 sample bottles of

men’s fragrances with a voucher included to buy his favourite

bottle. Mum might like a good book to lose herself in such as

the humorous Yours Truly by Kirsty Greenwood. Or maybe you

would like to sit down as a family and enjoy a family adventure

film like Epic.

Maybe you fancy going out to the theatre or for a nice meal

somewhere? We have some great Food and Theatre reviews on

our website.

If you are thinking of what food items to buy for Christmas then

checkout our review of Aldi’s Specially Selected Christmas Food

range for some great tasty ideas at great prices.

How ever you decide to celebrate the holidays we hope that

you have a great one and find some time to relax. And if you

want to do something nice this year, if you have an elderly

neighbour who is alone the Christmas why not invite them

around for Christmas dinner!




Christmas doesn’t have to be stressful!

Theatre Land

Get up close and personal as DINOSAUR ZOO roars into the West End This Christmas

Opening on Sunday 1 December 2013 until 12 January 2014

At the Phoenix Theatre, London

Following a hugely successful nationwide tour, including a one-month summer season at

Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, DINOSAUR ZOO heads to London’s West End for a Christmas run at the Phoenix Theatre, opening on Sunday 1

December, following previews from 27 November, and running through until 12 January 2014.

DINOSAUR ZOO creators ‘Erth’ use ingenious puppetry to bring dinosaurs to life in this interactive and imaginative live show, suitable for all the

family (age 3+). Audiences are introduced to a range of creatures from cute baby dinos to teeth-gnashing giants, including a carnivorous

theropod known as the Australovenator, based on the most complete meat-eating dinosaur skeleton found in Australia.

During the show, intrepid audience members brave enough to get up close and personal with the dinosaurs are brought onto the stage to assist

the Zoo Keeper in his/her daily tasks - but be warned - not all of these ravenous reptiles are as tame as they seem! For those who aren't able to

join the dinosaurs on stage, they will have the opportunity to meet them at the official ‘meet and greet’, which takes place at the end of each

show.

Fast-becoming a worldwide hit, DINOSAUR ZOO has played to family and schools audiences all over the world, from Australia to Los Angeles,

from New York City to Bahrain, exciting children with its popular mix of entertaining humour, adventurous daring and informative learning.

Australian based Erth create original live theatre at the forefront of new performance practice, inspiring audiences with their unique and

dynamic vision. Since its beginnings in 1990, the company has strived to provide audiences with eye-popping visual experiences incorporating,

amongst other disciplines, giant puppetry and inflatable environments. Erth has performed internationally at events and festivals, including the

Sydney Olympic Games Opening Ceremony in 2000.

DINOSAUR ZOO is directed by Scott Wright, designed by Steve Howarth and performed by Lindsey Chaplin, Scott Wright, Hal Silvester, Steve

Peck and Tina Jackson. DINOSAUR ZOO is presented in the UK by BOS Productions Ltd and Nick Brooke Ltd.
