It provided the perfect escape from the grey, wet weather yesterday, with the interior being calming and inviting, and the cooked breakfast and tea was excellent fuel for spending the rest of the day in Nottingham.

I think it was about the third time I have ever been in my entire life, which looks really bad, but I am not your typical fitness fanatic. Plus, with the amount of walking that I have been doing at uni I haven’t really felt the need! Nevertheless, I knew that off-peak gym membership was included with my accommodation, so I thought I might as well make use of it. And…I enjoyed it! Read more
