Prana Restaurant review

Prana Restaurant Review




Prana Restaurant is certainly one of Birmingham's best kept secrets! .......... The black and red decor is stylish and sophisticated. The bar area is modern and welcoming with its well-stocked bar and friendly service and the food is delicious - chef Parvinder Multani has devised an eclectic menu incorporating contemporary, traditional and original ideas which must surely provide something for everyone's taste. Formerly at Cafe Lazeez, London, Parvinder has cooked for Bill Gates among others. ............................ CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL REVIEW

My Little Bit of History

A new blog we've started "My Little Bit of History"



We've just started a new blog that I hope you might be interested in called "My Little Bit of History". We've been fascinated by, and traded in old interesting things, memorabilia and so on for a little while now and thought a Blog might be a great way of showing this. Being based in Birmingham we get quite a lot of local interest stuff which might be of particular interest . At the moment it is quite new so a lot of what we have got is still to be listed, but if you have a quicklook you will see what we intend for it, and over the next few weeks it will take shape a lot more.

Here's the "about us" from the blog which explains it a bit more -
My Little Bit Of History is where you can see and buy a little bit of history of your very own. Through a wide range of sources we hunt down those things that aren't always much money but are always interesting to us.
It amazes me what really interesting things can still be found, some of which I find incredible when I think of the history of them, or who they have been signed by or just simply what they are. This seems all the more significant somehow in todays modern disposable world.
Please have a browse through and hopefully you too will be intrigued by some of the items we have got. We are a great place to maybe start a collection and most of our things make the most fantastic presents that are most certainly different and a "little bit of history"



Take a look and let us know what you think or if you have any questions or suggestions - positive please ;-) The address is www.mylittlebitofhistory.co.uk Don't forget to check back to it over the next few weeks to see the new things. CLICK HERE TO VISIT

Photos from Autosport 2007 Birmingham NEC




We've just uploaded a whole load of photos from the Autosport International show at the NEC in the form of a photo gallery. There are over 150 images !! CLICK HERE to go to the page and then click on the individual pictures to see the larger versions. There are also "navigation" buttons that you can use for next, previous and home, and if you click on the enlarged picture it should automatically fit to your screen. Try it out and see. Hopefully this should be a good reminder if you went to the show, or if you missed it you can see a lot of what was there.
