Holidays
Ibiza, The World Keeps Gurning Page 3/3
By Andi
Page 1/3
Page 2/3

It's now Friday night and it's back to Pacha for Ministry of Sound. It'll cost you €50 a ticket but guesting are some of the finest house DJs in the world including Smokin' Jo and Danny Rampling. Pacha is a fantastic club and I've never had a bad night there, so it's certainly worth at least one visit during the week.
The last day of the week is reserved for shopping. The only place to shop in Ibiza is the island's capital. Ibiza Town is packed with shops and boutiques that will make you wish you'd picked up your credit card.

The last night is Hed Kandi at El Divino in Ibiza Town. The smallest of Ibiza's premier clubs, El Divino has a more intimate atmosphere than most clubs on the island. The main attraction is the view and vibe on the outdoor terrace which looks out onto Ibiza Town's spectacular marina.
The perfect place to warm up before Hed Kandi is Base Bar. Just a stone's throw away from El Divino, Base Bar offers a chance to see the Hed Kandi DJs warm up and to get reduced tickets for the evening.

Hed Kandi is a must for lovers of funky house and a great way to end a week of clubbing.
Being kicked out of your hotel at midday when your flight isn't until the early hours of the morning could be a real drag but in Ibiza it's an advantage. DC10 is one of Ibiza's finest all day bars and being on the doorstep of the airport it is the ideal place to say goodbye to the island.
So I found myself in the baggage retrieval in Manchester Airport not quite knowing how I'd got there, I realized I was definitely back in the real world. That is, of course, until next year.

Reviews, Books - "A Child Called 'It'" by Dave Pelzer
By Darren Sant
What can I say about this book? Anyone that knows me well would perhaps describe me as a "sentimental bugger". I am therefore surprised that I did not cry buckets of tears after every page of this book. A Child Called 'It' is the first in a trilogy of books. The books are the memoirs of Dave Pelzer. This first book covers Dave's life from ages 4 to 12. Read more...

Reviews, Books - "Cradle Song" by Robert Edric
By Nick Quantrill
Being a bit of sucker for crime fiction, and more pertinently, hard-boiled private investigator stories, I picked up this book purely on the basis it fulfilled the above criteria and is set in Hull.
Upon further investigation it turns out this is the first part of a trilogy set on the mean streets of Hull by Booker Prize nominated Robert Edric. Read more...

Places to Visit - Our Samhain Visit to Avebury by Janie Spencer
Before we start on our journey, let me give you a bit of background on Avebury. It is a beautiful stone circle, so big that you can in fact fit a village inside it, as you can see from this overhead map! As well as being a tourist spot, it is both a home and a gathering Read more...

Food Reviews - Yankeeburger - Hessle Road, Hull

Hull undoubtedly has many fine places to eat and enjoy different styles of food in pleasant surroundings. When we cut away the often pretentious warbling about contrasting flavours, smells and colours Read more...

People - FRANK MALARKY CHECKS OUT DAVID BLAINE
Took time to recover from the glasto festie back in June. Can you do some crazy things down there or can you do some crazy things? Took me a few months to get back down to earth, I can tell you.
Went up to the stone circle on the second day I did...... and then... before I knew it I found myself floating over towards the Pyramid stage and coming to a stop about 300 metres in the air above the main crowd. Read more...

Driving - Jo's DRIVING LESSONS
Here I was living alone with my 3 children, my husband having just left us to cope alone. My eldest daughter, only just 18, was keen to learn to drive and I didn't want to spend a fortune on driving lessons, at least not until she could learn as much as she could from me. Read more...

If you missed the programme and don't already know the case, here are the facts: Christopher Alder was in Waterfront Nightclub on the night of April 1st, 1998.

Articles - Made In Hull - Part One - Arundel Street Days
By Maurice Fairfield
My story begins in Arundel Street and wanders away to the shallow end of Holderness Road next door to the tram sheds and opposite the old Astoria Cinema, which was at that time the New Astoria Cinema. Then to Hedon for a time, then back to Arundel a couple of years before the outbreak of the war. Read more...

Articles - Digging Up The Past By Cilla

His name is John Boldock and his story is an honest account of what life was like for him as a young man in what were dangerous and terrifying times. After the story had been published on the site Read more...
