 The recent news that Brain of Britain host Robert Robinson is to quit the quiz show after a mind-boggling 30 years will no doubt disappoint the many aficionados of the BBCs long-running radio show. And make no mistake: there are thousands of devoted quiz fans the length and breadth of Britain.

 Its good to indulge oneself occasionally with a little pampering, but sometimes its even better to treat a friend to some of the finer things in life &#8211; such as spending time in one of the countrys most luxurious spa resorts. Ragdale Hall, nestling in the rolling countryside of deepest Leicestershire, is a stronghold of everything [...] <P>

 For many of us, the advent of summer evokes a cavalcade of wonderful images, such as freedom from work or study (temporarily at least!), days of relaxation, time spent with friends, barbecues and many other delights.
