Making Mosaics
18th July 2007
listed in CraftsSaffron Walden
I would recommend spending a day learning how to make mosaics with Ann and Gill most highly - I was made to feel really at home, and even as someone with no experience at all I was able to leave at the end of the day with a mosaic that I really felt pleased with, and all the materials I needed to finish it off at home. The friendly tuition is just at the right level to feel personal but not over-powering, and the range of materials available very inspiring. I have already been back for a half-day course, and no doubt will return again!

Front Door Flora

I attended a hanging basket course earlier this year. Now you may not think there is much to making a nice basket - but not the way Helen and Liz do it. We started with a slide show educating us as to all the options and then a guided visit to an excellent garden centre in Wimbish. My resulting basket, so packed full of flowers and feed, is the finest ever, with an usual burgundy/lime colour mix I would never have previously considered. It was a relaxing, sociable and informative day - i would highly recommend it.

Making Mosaics

I had a wonderful day, one saturday, on a "making mosaics" course. I had lots of help and encouragement as it was my first time "mosaicing" and it was practical enough for me to have a go at it myself at home since. The atmosphire was lovely, the mosaics on display were inspiring and the variety of tiles was tantalising. It was 4pm before I realised it!!!

Front Door Flora
18th July 2007
listed in Garden DesignSaffron Walden
I didnʼt think they could be that much to making a hanging basket - not so, according to Liz and Helen. After a thorough slide presentation and a guided trip to an excellent garden centre, my hanging basket was totally different to my usual combination of lobelia and pansies. And the unusual choices of burgundy and lime plants (sorry Liz/Helen canʼt remember their names!) are absolutely blooming as they were packed in with tonnes of goodies to keep them moist and well fed all summer. Enjoyable and informative, I would highly recommend it.

The Eight Bells

Iʼve eaten at the 8 Bells twice and was really impressed. The standard of food and service is excellent and, although rather more expensive than the average pub, itʼs worth the money.

Making Mosaics

The effort and concentration you need to put in on Anne and Gillʼs workshop day is enormous, but well worth it! Both of them give expert advice and inspiration on how to make your mosaic look superb and I love the excellent balance between good instruction and just letting us get on with it. They have excellent facilities with a homely atmosphere and plenty of choice in materials to use. This was my second time (this time I brought a couple of friends along, who were also impressed) and surely not my last.....

The Eight Bells
15th August 2007
listed in Pubs - GastroSaffron Walden
My partner and I have eaten three times now at The Eight Bells and it is truly excellent. The staff are very pleasant. W e ordered a glass of wine at the bar and the gentleman asked us to sit down and he would bring it over - very nice service!. The food was outstanding. I would call this nice classy food bistro style. I ordered the calves liver and my partner had the sausages - both were excellent. Plates were hot and food cooked to perfection. I had the sticky toffee pudding for afters which was heavenly and my partner had a cheese board which was also excellent. We have also enjoyed the Sunday Roast here which was also very good. I have recommended to my boss that we attend the Christmas Party night this year as the food and service is so very good. The pub is within walking distance of our house too which is a great bonus due to the excellent range of wines on offer. When I was a youngster I remember the pub being owned by a couple who had an excellent menu. It was always packed out every day. When they left it never really regained that good feeling about it but I truly believe the owners now have got this pub back to the standard it should be. Try it, you really will not be disappointed!
