    You list the Carpenter's Arms under the East category in best Sunday lunches...yet the Arms is in Hammersmith, you've got the address on there too!

    Hello,
    I would really like to see an article on restaurants in london with entertainment/burlesque - i have been to brickhouse and seen volupte but really fancy something different and a bit cheaper?
    Also - your search engine is always useless.
    Many thanks

    I read your mag, but rarely use your site, although I long to use it to find out what's on. But honestly, every time I go on to try and find, for example, what concerts are on - it's impossible. I can never find a simple, effective concert listing - ever. There are highlight concerts, there's features -interesting snippets, and invariably what happens, as tonight, is that I get distracted by this that and the other thing, after 25 mins of messing about think, oh yes, where's that listing, look again, can't find it, and log on. Cumulatively, I'm now phobic about using the site for listings, as I have never succeeded in grabbing the information I need. And I'm very busy.
    So - what's the site for? It's not for me. I don't know how you organise it, honestly, after all this time. It seems like a real endeavour every time I've tried to work my way through all the options. It's professionally made, sure. But there's just so much stuff - and where oh where are those listings?
    Probably they're not even there as you'd prefer people to buy the mag. That's probably the answer. Dunno.

    I love Timeout because your reviews of films invariably match my taste. You recognise original, brave and intelligent film makers.
    I must admit that our tastes will probably differ over Twilight and Twilight New Moon. I cannot comment yet on New Moon but I am sure from reading references to Twilight in New Moon reviews that Twilight did not receive the reviews that it may have deserved.
    Do not write these films off as tween nonsense.
    I realise the book and the films have flaws but they also have a brilliance and they are not just about pretty vampires.
    Female critics seem to be rare and men get nervous around such films as Twilight. So the film received bad press.
    Teen love and gays can make even those most confident male critics nervous.
    Woman do not have the same issues with such films as Brokeback Mountain, Milk and Twilight as Males.
    Twilight was hugely atmospheric, gloomy, damp, wet. Robert and Kristen acted their socks off in a low budget film. The tension between the characters was sustained and always interesting.
    The casting of actors for the roles was inspired. Sheriff Swan cut the perfect balance. The Cullen family were imaginative and exciting choices. Preparing a meal for Bella scene was scripted perfectly In fact the the screenplay was both fluid and humorous.
    Victoria, Carlise, Jasper, Alice. We knew them briefly but their originality made our heads turn. The baseball sequence was thrilling. The music choice cool.
    Christine Hardwick may not have not got the special effects quiet right but she did get a lot of other things right and she had heart – lots of it.
    Yes it is a love story. Shakespeare's mastery of language gives Romeo and Juliet an edge that Twilight will never have but Meyer’ storyline was just as good.
    Congratulations to Christine Hardwick. Her directorial choices were brave.
    PS Is there any critic out there that truly gets it. I have an office of 22 employees. Many of them Graduates. They are hooked. Twilight catches us, stirs up feelings of forgotten youth and leaves us surprised.
    I hope the new Director Chris Weitz does not turn New Moon into the equivalent of a car chase, male chested romp with biceps. I hear he may have done.

    Funny, these recipes for Thanksgiving culinary even "American Style" don't seem very American to me (coming from an American). And what American even bowls anymore? That went out of style a long time ago. Why do you call all the desserts "pudding"? These are not pudding, they are pies & desserts. Pudding is stuff that looks kinda phlegm-y.

    I have a photo taken in 1965 of the Golden Hind Restaurant, maybe one of many of the same name. I was told that Oliver Cromwell was there often.
    I can upload the photo if you are interested.
    Also, are there several restaurants called the Golden Hind? This one has a bronze Deer over the doorway.

    Whoever wrote the article about Psycho being made into a TV show is an idiot! ANTHONY HOPKINS was NOT in Psycho! You consider yourselves expert on the entertainment world and you don't even know who played Norman Bates! It was Anthony PERKINS you idiots!

    I think there needs to be a clearly defined section on learning... I have seen various events mentioned in ad hoc articles but I would like to see a section dedicated to events like... where and when I can learn to make sushi, or scuba diving, or take photography lessons.
    I love and admire other people's abilities to cook me great food, entertain me with art or theatre, but how about getting my own hands engaged for once!

    How does one recommend a pub/restaurant to Time Out?

    Jackie etc when I say I am that charity shop managers friend I do not mean as in friend I suppose I mean aguaintance of sorts, and the reason I speak to her occasionally is not that I agree with what she clearly does (in fact a lot of her volunteers are now exposing a lot) due to the fact that she has upset a really nice lady who came into the shop. This lady has now written to the headguarters of the company, and I cant wait for the outcome.But you mentioned that as she has been in the shop for years makes no difference but she honestly does not believe she is disposable if that is the correct word.

    We want to put a review of our local restaurant on the site but cannot see how to do it. The restaurant is called Ida and is in W10 but a search does not bring it up. Please can you advise?

    I went to Saharaween last night after seeing the review and booking a table on your website. When I got there, a sign at the door stated the restaurant had closed down 6 weeks ago, due to an infestation by rats! I would appreciate more up to date information on your website to avoid disappointments like these.
