"REMEMBER TO TAKE AN UMBRELLA! The car park is in a field about a quarter of a mile away from the restaurant. There was light rain upon my arrival and I didn’t have an umbrella in the car so arrived at the table looking slightly damp.

The adults of the group were not looking after their kids and the kids were running through all the tables, climbing the lamposts etc Staff seemed to be getting quite frustrated with the group too as they were trying to run the food to the guests but they were not listening to them. Slightly spoilt the atmosphere, not really the fault of The Barn but did impact our enjoyment unfortunately."

Well the answer is: I don 't eat like that all the time. I like to adopt an 80 20 rule (80 good days and 20 treat days). So generally during the week I 'll be as good as gold, eating healthy home cooked meals that are nutritionally balanced and doing lots of hard core exercise. Then at the weekend I 'll have my splurges! I don 't really eat junk food...read more"
