Hi Happy New year everyone! Can anyone recommend a good mortgage broker in the MK area?

We used Mike Baker about 4 years ago, he was very good. Try Googling Mike Baker Mortgage Services.

I've been thinking about having my eyes zapped for a while now - has anyone any experience of the new Optimax in Milton Keynes?

The Aldi store in Bletchley would never be big enough for Primark neither would there be adequate parking in that area. Could you imagine what hell it would cause?!

I am looking for recommendations for a hairdresser who is excellent at doing up dos / hair ups at a reasonable price. I usually go to Hairlines but they don't have hair ups on their price list. I did find a couple of places but they wanted £25 - £35 which is a little bit out of my price range.

Am happy to have a mobile hairdresser as long as they come recommended and have experience in doing up do's

Fairy shazza I have been going to Artizan in Furzton for 6 years now and couldnt fault them at all - Martine who is the owner always dos mine.

On another note and a real long shot but does anyone know of any indian shops on MK that sell henna powder? or even any good indian shopes fullstop lol

happy january..

does anyone have a recommendation for a laptop repair person or shop? thanks

There is a computer shop near Timpson the shoe repairers in the city centre. I brough a new battery from my laptop from there which was good value. I would assume they do laptop repairs

Does anyone use the Vets (Vetsavers) in Shenley Brook End? I'm thinking of switching to them as they are so close, are they any good? More concerned about standard of care, nice vets etc rather than price.

My daughter has decided she wants driving lessons for Christmas - I'd be really grateful for any recommendations!

Hi Louisa, my son & daughter (now all grown up) learnt to drive with Mick Hodges of Independent School of Motoring Milton Keynes (01604 645427 or 07921078314

Mick was great with them, he really relates to teenagers.

That's spooky, he taught me too - 13 years ago now! He must have been good as I passed my test first time

I think you've given the wrong phone number for him though, I recognised the name but knew he used to live in Crownhill so googled and found the website. The Northampton number is for someone from the same company. Mick's number is:

Mick Hodges: tel: 01908 561417[FONT=Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, san-serif]
Residing at Crown Hill mob: 07921078314
