    hello MK'ers :)

    im a regualr shopper at MK but my husband has recently been awarded a blue badge - does anyone know if you need to pay for blue badge spaces or if they are free ?
    have never noticed on the parking machines before - not something you tend to remember if it doesnt apply

    many thanks :)
    Free.

    I use my Blue Badge in the City Centre whenever my DH is available to take me there.

    Do make sure it's clearly displayed; the wardens do check.

    HTH

    I have used Starlite limos in the past and just booked with them for my daughters prom in June.

    About average price, and fully licenced & with new well maintained vehicles. Unlike some they own several limos & hummers and run limo hire as their professional business.

    Good rep locally.

    Any recommendations for gyms/health clubs in MK?

    Once I've finished my course of physio I want to try some more regular exercise but I need to get an idea of which gyms are around in MK. I'm :o to say I've no idea and I've lived here for years!

    Ideally I want somewhere where there is staff available to check machines are being used correctly as I need to be careful with my hip and don't want exercise to actually make it worse.
    :j Go on, shake your money maker! :j

    I've been told the new gym near the Don's Stadium (DW?) is very good and reasonably priced.
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.
