Metro FM National Radio Station
This is the one thing that I think the South African Broadcasting Commission actually got right, apart from their TV3 channel of course.
Over my ten year period of listening to Metro FM, the content, broadcast style and layout of the whole operation is what turned me into the loyal, …

Sportsville Bar and Sports Lounge Restaurant

I could honestly …

Up The Creek Comedy Club London
This is a Greenwich gem. Forget the park, the boat (it’s being restored anyway, nothing to see) Don’t waste time at the Royal Observatory (time, geddit?) Go here instead.
Happily bad jokes can only be found in my opening paragraph.
The club opens it’s doors on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays …
