This review is for Sydney Whale Watching, Sydney NSW

I have wanted to do this for the longest time and finally decided to "Take the plunge" I am scared of the sea as I nearly drowned as a child but I do not get sea sick.
I picked the larger boat "the Dreaming" as I felt it would be more comfortable if the sea got a bit rough and it was a good decision.It was cold and rainy but the crew were fantastic and so patient with some passengers who definitely should not have been on board. The weather had been the same on the earlier cruise in the morning and there were some stunning pics of that but this afternoon the whales were unco-operative, but hey, they are wild and do their own thing. The lady member of the crew was very friendly and efficient and Jonas the onboard photographer is amazing and gives a very good commentary too. Some whales came quite close to the boat and although they refused to breach it was still amazing. I intend to go again later in the year when the weather is more settled as I don't enjoy cold weather but I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone who wants a really awesome experience.Check out the pics on their website!

Very well positioned as you can just call in for a meal or take-away on your way home as they are very close to the train station.
Happy friendly staff greet you at the door.
They have about 10 people working in the kitchen and are very organised.
The menu is very varied and you don't wait long for your food.
They also provide a take-away service and local home delivery.
highly recommended!

This review is for Aldi, North Sydney NSW

I have been shopping at this branch of Aldi for 2 years now.
Their expanding product range rarely forces me to shop at supermarkets like Woolworths or Coles anymore, which is great as they are way overpriced and I am not impressed with their so called "Quality".
My only whinge is that they do not stock their special offers adequately, which is very annoying.
I went to the store early last Saturday specifically to buy a couple of the special offers that were advertised as being on sale on this day.
The staff were divided in the opinion on whether they had actually received stock or if they had sold out.
A lot of other people like me, walked out disappointed too.
The new staff there are not like the ones they had previously and did not seem to know what was going on at all.
Although I shall continue to shop there for meat and veg I have no faith in their specials any more.
I made a special trip in to purchase pillows on the advertised day since then and they were already out of stock.They need to review and monitor their stock levels as there were some very angry customers in the store.

This review is for Cutting Point Hairdressing, North Sydney NSW

Great hair cut but always running late. Most recently nearly an hour late and not even an apology.The guy is unnecessarily loud and said " So and so is free, she can do you" I had made an appointment and I could clearly see that he had just started a hair cut on another client when I arrived. I will not go there again nor recommend on principle. Too rude, loud & disorganised.

Approximate cost: $50,00

I couldn't understand the guy as he spoke very fast. There was a lot of noise in the background. They don't even keep something as basic as a VGA to DVI-D adaptor!

Approximate cost: $40.00
