Hyde Park Prepares for Annual ‘Winter Wonderland’ Fair

The crowning glory of London’s numerous Christmas fairs and markets is Hyde Park’s annual Winter Wonderland. It is returning this year on November 23rd, and will stay open until January 5th (closing only on Christmas Day).

Now in its sixth year, Winter Wonderland is London’s largest Christmas fair, and offers some major attractions for locals and tourists alongside the usual array of rides, markets and food and drink stalls. The event spans Hyde Park and the adjoining Kensington Gardens .

The centerpiece of the event is the massive ice rink, currently under construction around Hyde Park’s bandstand. The rink will be lit up by 108,000 pea lights. One of the other regular attractions, Zippos Circus, returns with a brand new show for 2012 entitled ‘Cirque Berserk’, a showcase for stunt artists and old-fashioned circus daredevils. A 53-metre high ferris wheel will dominate the skyline.

If you just plan to wander around soaking up the atmosphere, entry to Winter Wonderland is free. However, tokens have to be purchased for the big wheel and other rides. Tokens for the ice rink cost between £10.50-£13.50 for adults, and £8.50-£9 for children. A spin on the giant ferris wheel costs £8 for adults and £6 for children.

Further information is available at LondonTown.com. The website has also announced details of reduced rates on selected hotels in London. All the hotels taking part are within walking distance of Hyde Park.

One of the hotels in London offering a special offer on rooms is the luxury Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park London, just ten minutes’ walk from Hyde Park, is offering a 60% discount on double rooms, making the cost of a night’s stay £307.

For those on a tighter budget, the Thistle Marble Arch Hotel is currently offering guests a 91% discount on their usual double room rate, bringing the cost of a night’s stay down to just £90. The Thistle is within easy walking distance of Hyde Park.

Deluxe double and twin rooms are available at the Grosvenor for £224 per night – a 55% reduction on the standard rate. The Grosvenor is a ten minute walk from Hyde Park.

Greg Davies Takes on Hammersmith Apollo for his Biggest Performance to Date

 Greg Davies, Britain’s tallest comedian (probably), will perform for his biggest audience yet at London’s Hammersmith Apollo on 17 November. This popular comedian has been interlacing stand-up with a variety of TV performances since he quit his 13-year role as drama teacher. He regularly appears on comedy panel programmes such as Mock the Week and he’s also well known for his roles as Mr Gilbert, the psychotic head teacher in the Inbetweeners, and ‘the fat Rik Mayall’ in We Are Kiang.

His stand-up shows focus on hilarious and sometimes uncomfortably funny family stories that make audiences squirm just as much as they make them laugh. Davies is a genius in observation and a master at relaying his observations and performances are always filled with energy and mania.

Tickets for his Hammersmith Apollo show, part of his ‘The Back of My Mum’s Head’ tour, are priced at just £20 each.

LondonTown.com, the number one Internet site for London, advises Greg Davies fans to book overnight accommodation in the capital after the Hammersmith-based performance in order to completely relax and enjoy the show in its entirety. To make this a more budget friendly option, LondonTown.com has exclusively discounted a selection of hotels in London this autumn.

Two of the hotels on offer – both located within walking distance of Hammersmith Apollo – are the Hilton London Olympia and Simply Rooms and Suites Hotel.

The four-star Hilton London Olympia Hotel boasts stylish and contemporary rooms complete with all the modern amenities you could hope to find. Rooms at this hotel have been reduced by as much as 76% so prices now start at £78 per night.

The boutique four-star property that is Simply Rooms and Suites Hotel has also had it’s per night prices reduced. Rates at this attractive and functional property now start at £89 per room, per night thanks to LondonTown.com’s discount of 39%. Like the Hilton, this hotel boasts a range of modern facilities including Wifi Internet and LCD flatscreen TVs.

In support of World Diabetes Day, Harvey Norman’s Connected Fitness team research reveals that 280 Australians develop diabetes every day

In support of World Diabetes Day (14 November), Harvey Norman’s Connected Fitness team carried out a detailed research project to uncover the extent of Australia’s type 2 diabetes problem. The worrying results indicate that an estimated 1.7 million Australians suffer from type 2 diabetes today, with up to half of these cases currently undiagnosed. Reports from The World Health Organisation indicate that the total number of diabetic Australians is expected to increase to 3.3 million by 2031, creating a healthcare timebomb for the country. An infographic to visually represent the results has been specially commissioned and can be found on theHarvey Norman website.

Diabetes can significantly impact the quality of life and life expectancy of its sufferers. Some of the potential health complications caused by the disease include kidney damage, heart disease and stroke, loss of vision, and foot ulcers leading to limb amputation. The long term impacts on the life of the sufferer, and on healthcare costs for the country, are significant. However, it is known that up to around 60% of cases of type 2 diabetescould be prevented.

Key steps that can be taken to help prevent the development of this killer disease include eating a healthy diet, cutting out tobacco, keeping alcohol consumption within sensible limits and taking regular exercise. Walking, running and cycling are all great forms of exercise that enable people to work at their own pace and can easily be carried out in the home using treadmills and exercise bikes. Harvey Norman’s Connected Fitness team are on hand to provide help and advice on suitable fitness equipment and tools that can make it easy for people to increase their levels of activity and monitor their progress.

Harvey Norman’s Daniel Hosford, says: “World Diabetes Day should be an important date in everyone’s diary. Harvey Norman understands the importance of following a healthy lifestyle in order to protect against this debilitating disease and we’d like to do our bit to support the aims of the day. Our Connected Fitness team are happy to help our customers find the right equipment to help them take part in a healthy level of exercise, and our range is also available to purchase online for those customers who don’t have a store nearby. ”
