I went here when we went to edinburgh for the weekend i have to say what a specil fantastic zoo loads of great animals and a fantastic bird sanctuary stunning colourful birds and you can buy food etc and the birds come to you to have a feed. I absolutely loved it here as everyone else looked like they were too i would highly reccommend taking all ages of people here as there is something for everyone.

This costcutter is in an ideal location surrounded by pubs and on the main street barking road.
The staff are a friendly bunch and will help you where needed.
They sell a majority of every day foods, plus they have a fresh bread section which they cook baguettes and rolls each morning so they are nice and fresh.They also have a large selection of fridge and freezer products.
They are open early in the morning till late evening.

This park is a very peaceful park its somewhere to go and relax have a picnic or just to stroll around.In the picture it shows the water fountain this is a main feature in the park and in the sun children love playing around it and splashing the water.Its a very clean park and well looked after it has benches all around so its ideal for one of those relaxing days.

This is a great place to have a day out at with the children.You make your way up the hill an you have an encounter witht the dinasaurs guarding the toy museum The toy museum is at the top of the hill. They have toys which mums and dads may remeber they used to have when they were children and toys the children have nowadays.
Then its off to have a wonder around the castle where theres animals running freely (sheep, peococks and ducks).And to get an insight what it was really like in the old days.Theres also a gift shop if you want to buy a few bits to remember your experience by.

Argos is a great store that sell everything you need for your dad to day life apart from clothes and shoes.
They sell toys,bedding, furniture,garden stuff and gift vouchers.

This argos is quite large with catalogues avaliable to browse through and the self checkers to make sure they have stock of the item that you want.
They also have self serve tills thats if you have a bank card to use.
When queuing up for your items it can be a long wait because they only have maybe two or three tills open at one time.
After this you have to take a seat until the number on your receipt is called out, this can take around 20 minutes.

They also have a seperate jewellery part where you can try it on (excluding earrings) and where you can purchase the item of jewellery you want to buy.

The staff are quite friendly and polite but you can get the odd one thats very rude.

Theres no where at all to park your car and pick up any larger items so its best to pay fro delivery.

This is a great womens wear shop thats located across the road from the mans jj’s and the childrens shop jj’s aswell.

The shop comprises of two shops knocked into one on one side theres all the clothing and a few pairs of shoes.

The clothing is of great quality and varies within price the clothes range from around £9.99 for a top to around £70 for a moschino top.

They sell alot of designer clothes at real great prices.

On the other side of the shop they sell all the designer clothes which are moschino,evisu,levis and ted baker and many more.
This is also where they have a few shelfs of shoes, boots and triners for sale.

The shop staff are very helpful and polite and sometimes if they havent got your size they will order it in for you.

Great place if you need a nice outfit to wear.

Or to just treat yaself.
Open six days a week.
9am -6pm

The trocadero is fantastic it has 5 or 6 floors.
The first and second floor are full of shops including claires accessories, a great sweet shop, and many stalls which are run by chinese people that sell chinese ornaments and stuff.

On level 3 and 4 theres arcades, every arcade game you can think of for example 2p machines, 10p machines,slot machines, car racing etc.

Theres also a bowling alley which is far to expensive £25 for 2 kids one game thats just so dear but its great fo the kids or if your in a large group and fancy something different then this isgood for you.
They also have a pub situated rightnext to the bowling alley, this is for adults only but there is a section for familys to sit in between the pub and the bowling alley.
Theres also the dodgems which is great for all ages you get in the car and just crash into each other which is great.

Theres a few sweet shops and little snack bars to have a soft drink and a bite to eat but they are all very pricey.

All in all this is a great day out for everyone to go and enjoy but it does cost a hell of a lot of money if you have children.

Yates is situated in the front of stratford shopping centre.

This yates sell alcohol and food at really decent prices.

Its not a bad place to go into in the day time but i wouldnt go in there of a friday or saturday as theres too much trouble and the staff seem to get very rude.

The music is great what they play throughout the day and its just a pleasant place to go too.
They have a few comfortable settees for people to really unwind on and they have loads of seating areas.

The toilets are upstairs but they do have a disabled toilet for those who cant use the stairs.

The prices are excellent.

I would reccommend this to go to in the daytime but not the evenings.

This shop only opened a few years ago itssituated in startford centre long with many other shops.

HMV is great for dvd’s computer games, games consoles , calenders and books.

This Hmv has alot on offer as its always well stocked and very easy to locate what your looking for.

The staff are always polite and helpful whether your looking for something or you just need advice they seem to know what our talking about.

The tills are never really busy as when the store strts getting more customers coming through the door they get more staff to serve.
Great customer service and great returns policy.

Would reccommend if you need to get a little present for someone or your after treating yourself to something.

The barking dog is situated a few doors away from barking station.

This is quite a large pub but no live entainment or music and no pool tables.
They have a few scrrens which show live football matchesad other type os sport.

They also have a few fruit machines scattered around the pub.

They sell food at the back of the pub which include light snacks or meals they are reasonably priced.

This is an ok pub to meet friends but not a pub for entertainment purposes or to stay in for the night.
