White Cliffs

Advantages: relaxing hols in a pretty countryside
Disadvantages: can't see any

...the German army after unification. Since then some museums have been set up in one block, an art gallery and a café and a youth hostel with 800 beds will be built in the near future, but the arguments go on what to do with the whole megalomaniac monstrosity. When Germans hear 'Rügen', they think 'chalk', nowhere in the country is there more, it's quarried for industrial use, it's not the school board kind. But tourists aren't interested in the chalk processing plants, they go to the National Park Jasmund on the east coast and admire the white cliffs, the most famous being the 'King's Chair' of 117m glistening white like a huge stone sail against the blue of the sky and the sea and the green of the trees on either side and on top. If you're able to you can climb down into the gorge on wooden steps to the beach, collect your souvenirs there...

Bempton Cliffs, East Yorkshire

Advantages: A lovely natural wonder, lots of wildlife
Disadvantages: Not fully accessible for disabled visitors, admission charges

...Bempton Cliffs can be found on the east coast of Yorkshire just outside the small village of Bempton, which is off the Bridlington to Flamborough road. This whole area is now a nature reserve that is owned and managed by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB). There can be few people that have been here that can deny that Bempton Cliffs are a spectacular sight. They are characterised by their chalk-white appearance and they rise vertically from the sea to the cliff tops. They are just as impressive from the top of the cliffs looking downwards as they are from below looking upwards. These limestone sea cliffs stretch for over 3 miles (5 kilometres) and have an average height of 86 metres above sea level. They are the highest sea cliffs in England and they are home to one of the largest sea bird colonies in the British...

The Leas Cliff Hall

Advantages: Lots of shows to choose from, excellent security
Disadvantages: None

...I have been to the Leas Cliff Hall on several occasions to watch bands such as Embrace and Pink Floyd tribute bands. I have also attended the musical Fame at this location. The Leas Cliff Hall There is one main arena at the Leas Cliff Hall and this consists of a large stage, with an open hall area in front on it. At the back of the hall, there are stairs which lead to upper stalls although the seating is fairly limited with only two rows all the way round. During the concerts that I have attended, there have been no seats laid out and visitors are left to stand in the large open hall area where they can view the band on stage. The only seating available is the higher seating around the outside of the hall. When I attended the musical Fame, the Leas Cliff Hall had been laid out in a completely different style. Rows of seats had been...

Iconic Chalk

Advantages: beautiful, wild, ancient, great views
Disadvantages: painful in bad weather

...The White Cliffs of Dover are one of those archetypal, iconic images of Britain: and rightly so, as Dover has been a place of comings and goings for time immemorial (Romans contemplated landing here, but decided against it; Lancelot travelled form here onto his exile, and millions of hopeful immigrants and thirsty day-shoppers leave and arrive via Dover every day). I have to confess to having a bit of a thing for cliffs. I grew up on a coast, but it was the Baltic coats of Poland, of which the vast majority is sandy beach, and the cliffs - as few and far between as they are - are earth cliffs. So a proper rocky shore has always held a fascination for me: it started with the Sussex coast, Beachy Head and Seven Sisters when we lived in Brighton, and during over two years in Dover I fell in love with the White Cliffs. The name refers to...

The White Knight to the rescue on those wet summer days

Advantages: User friendly, light weight and good load capability
Disadvantages: C rated so not he most economical

...As most people in Britain own a washing machine, many, like me, probably struggle to get there washing dry, especially with the glorious sunshine and top quality weather that is constantly warming our cheery faces, (that was sarcasm by the way), so the invention of the clothes/tumble dryer was a god send. So when my old dryer suddenly decided to stop blowing hot air, whilst also gaining a sort of stutter, I decided to go on the hunt for another similar one, coming across a brand called White Knight. But, to add to my confusion, I discovered that there are several types of dryers, such as spin dryers, which simply spin the clothes inside so fast that they eventually dry. Then there?s the condenser dryer, which passes warm air through the clothes and turns the heated air into water vapour sending the vapour into a storage hold, thus...

Calling all Cliff Richard Fans.

Advantages: lovely christmassy songs
Disadvantages: he has re mixed a lot of them

...price. I will give you some tips on this later. The CD Cover -------------------- Blue edged border with a picture of cliff leaning again a silver post, wearing a sky blue jumper and white clothes. In the background is snow and Christmas Trees. The front cover has the words Cliff at Christmas on op and at the bottom it states some of the songs that are included. The back of the cover lists all the songs and the website for anyone to go and visit. The songs --------------- This cd consists of 17 tracks, 8 new ones and 9 Christmas favourites from Cliff. However beware if you are looking for the traditional versions they are not as he sings them in his own way and most are a gospel type song. 1) Have yourself a merry Christmas, this track is like the original but in a slower blues mode. 2) Mistletoe and Wine, another...

Treak Cliff Cavern In The Peak District!

Advantages: Fantastic Experience
Disadvantages: Not Easily Accessible, Expensive

...Treak Cliff Cavern can be found on the fringe of Derbyshire's Peak District town of Castleton. Cutting deep into the limestone hillside this is actually one of four different Cave systems that penetrate this impressive landscape. This landscape and the Caves were formed between 350 and 300 million years ago when this whole area was submerged under the sea. Treak Cliff Cavern is perhaps the least known of Castleton's Caves, although it still attracts many thousands of visitors each year. This may have something to do with the fact that it is the least accessible and it is also much smaller than Peak Cavern, the largest Cave here and the Blue John Cavern. Castleton's other Cave, Speedwell Cavern benefits from having an entrance directly next to the road and also has the added appeal of being flooded by water, meaning that a trip into...

~ THE WHITE DELIGHT ~

Advantages: Excellent tatse, Great quality wrapping, Nice smell
Disadvantages: none

...~ THE WHITE DELIGHT ~ After seeing this on this week?s product of the week last night I decided to give it a try. I don?t actually eat a lot of chocolate unlike most females and i prefer sweets, as most chocolate bars make me feel ill after. Saying this though i have always liked Kit Kat bars. I prefer white chocolate to normal and I love kit kats so thought I would enjoy one of these bars. White chocolate is defiantly my favourite kind, so after buying a bar from my local shop last night I was intrigued to see if it was any better than the original Kit Kat bar. I can say it was thanks to Ciao that I managed to try one even though I have seen them in the shops for a while. The bar itself is also very eye catching so I think I would have got one at some point. They were set in a large white box right by the till so i would be...

Haven's Devon Cliffs - Not worth the money

Advantages: pools, adventure golf, good choice of food
Disadvantages: disgusting beach, too far from decent seaside town, accomomadation, too hilly

...For the last 3 years we have been to a Haven site, the previous 2 years we went to Golden Sands in Mablethorpe and thoroughly enjoyed it so this year we thought we would try somewhere different. As Devon Cliffs is Havens "flagship park" we thought we would try it. It looked spectacular in the brochure and we were really looking forward to it. What a disappointment! The park itself is far too big, too many caravans for the size of the entertainment complex. The pools were excellent however although the outdoor pools are so much smaller than they look on the website although the lockers cost you a £1 which is non refundable so if you leave something in the locker it will cost you another £1. The beach was absolutely disgusting, We are very much a beach family and there is no way on this earth we would use the beach on the site. It was...
