Greig Middleton and Co Limited

Advantages: Fast efficent service, very knowledgeable staff, everything done through 1st class postage.
Disadvantages: Sometimes the trade takes about 5 mins to go through.

...I have been trading stocks and shares with Grieg Middleton since about September 1998 and have been pleased with every effort that they have made in efficency and advice on stocks and shares. I am only a small investor and make about 3-6 transactions a year of anything between £1000 - £2000 a time. I have found Grieg Middleton very competitive in the share market dealings along with knowlege and understanding of predicted share to go up. Greig Middleton has 3 extra charges made to you when buying or selling shares. These are Stamp duty which is about 0.5% extra Commission at £25 a time for dealings under £1000 and £29.50 over £1000 Admin charge of £15 a time This is not too bad and the service and transactions are very fast to say that it is a phone service to buy and sell and postal payments. if you buy or sell any shares...

Review of Greig Middleton & Co Ltd

New side to Middleton

Advantages: Close to Manchester
Disadvantages: None

...Middleton is more than a town stuck between Manchester and Rochdale, it is a site of historic interest stretching from the neolithic period to the 1930's with Edgar Woods. In the centre of Middleton you will find a busy shopping centre with numerous local nightlife spots, however, if you take a short walk up Long Street (part of the Roman road between Manchester and York) you will discover a 12th century church, St Leonard's with one of only three wooden steeples in the whole of England and Wales. There is an old celtic buried tomb and the oldest known war memorial in England (a stained glass window depicting the Middleton Archers who fought at the battle of Flodden) within the church itself, whereas the graveyard holds many interesting tombs, including Samuel Bamford's tomb (who led the Tolpuddle martyrs to the massicare at Peterloo...

Review of Attractions & Sights - Historic sites

The new name of Greig Middleton

Advantages: Very efficient, good competitiveness, good customer service and knowledge.
Disadvantages: Lost some of its competitiveness in attracting new customers with higher commission rates

...I have been trading stocks and shares with numerious companies since about early 1998, and have on occasions been quite succesful. This partially been due to the help and advise given from Gerrard Limited (formally Greig Middleton & Co. Limited)and have therefore been more than pleased with every effort that they have made in efficency and advice on stocks and shares. I am only a small investor and make about 3-6 transactions a year of anything between £1000 - £2000 a time, but this figure is gradually getting higher with more money being made. I have found Grieg Middleton quite competitive in the share market dealings. Greig Middleton make 3 extra charges made to you when buying or selling shares. These are Stamp duty which is about 0.5% extra Commission at £25 a time for dealings under £1000 and £29.50 over £1000 Admin...

Review of Gerrard Limited

Tales from the Confederacy States

Advantages: Short, witty and thoroughly likeable
Disadvantages: Lonely at times

...Those people expecting a Greil Marcus style investigation of the cultural underpinnings which link The King with the Original Gangster Ice T, are going to be altogether disappointed in Nick Middelton?s travelogue of the much-maligned confederacy states. While Elvis takes centre-stage in a pivotal chapter which almost brings some sense of narrative to the whole venture, the Ice Tea on offer comes courtesy of the famed sophistication of Savannah, Georgia rather than the controversial gun-toting rapper. Taking his cue from the Bill Bryson school of travel writing, Middleton?s book balances the three elements of the nouvelle style - description, history and dialogue ? with admirable skill and a typically detached British sense of humour. The only criticism one may venture is that the humour may be a little too detached, with most...

All you can eat - if they've cooked anything

Advantages: All you can eat, large restaurant, plenty of staff
Disadvantages: Poor management of available dishes, some food tends to taste the same

...Karims is located on Heywood Old road, not far from Middleton and the M62. It is a well established restaurant specialising in Indian Cuisine in a buffet style. Open 7 days a week until 10:30pm and suitable for families, as well as being easily accessible. The restaurant has pleasant décor on entering with an authentic "guard" dressed in Indian dress uniform to greet you at the doors. You are shown to a table, which is laid out with its companions in such a way that you do not feel claustrophobic or self concious about the people eating around you. First time eaters are taken through the procedure whilst drinks are ordered. With some buffets there is a danger of treating diners like cattle waiting to be fed - but this isn't the case. The friendly staff will sort out drinks for the table - there is a strict "No Alcohol" policy which...

Review of Sense And Sensibility (DVD)

Finding he crystal horse

Advantages: Lots to see
Disadvantages: None

...build the Regency Hall. This garden is lovely to walk through and especially in autumn because of the different coloured leaves. The garden also has clues to the crystal horse, and as we walked through, we could hear hoof beats, neighing, and found horse shoes hidden beneath the trees- a truly enjoyable walk. **The Castle...** After a walk through the quarry garden, is the castle, which was the original home of the Middleton family, which was built in the 14th century. When we first entered the castle, this was clearly the earliest part of the building as there are walls but no ceilings, although it?s still got an old range in one of the walls. Walk through the ruins and we come to a later addition to the castle, the hall. This has ceilings and has had some restoration work done. The first-floor great chamber still has traces...
