During the World War II, was the chairman of the Hollywood Victory Committee and she founded the legendary Hollywood Canteen, along with fellow Warner Bros actor John Garfield. The Canteen was free to active servicemen of all ages, and was an escapist’s dream: they could dance with starlets, and get served up food by their favorite Hollywood actors.

But Bette Davis had one extremely controversial stipulation: that the canteen be .
This meant, of course, that black soldiers would be able to dance with white women in public. As heroic America was during that War, it was still deeply rooted in Jim Crow laws and open in*******al mingling was something that was just NOT done. It strictly White-Only and Black-Only. (Hattie McDaniel was the chairman of the Negro Hollywood Victory Committee.)
Bette Davis received intense heat for her decision, but she and Garfield refused to back down and fought for the club to be racially integrated. Their solution was simple: if not, they’d quit. And without stars, there wasn’t a canteen. Davis won, and the Canteen was successfully integrated.

One very good reason why you should come to us for FREE impartial advice before booking your next holiday. http://tiny.cc/zmrs4x

As a fully licensed ABTA operator, we have access to thousands of impartial warts-and-all reviews of hotels, apartments, airlines, cruise lines and even local excursions.

Our advice is totally free of charge. We do all the research and present all the options to you in a clear, honest manner. And our buying power means that chances are we'll come up with a better deal than anyone else!

Click on the web link over there on the left for more info, call 0203 004 9698 or email our resident guru Rob (he told us to say that) at [email protected]

Critics say review website TripAdvisor allows clearly false reviews to be posted. And with £23billion of UK consumer spending influenced by reviews annually, the market for fake feedback is booming.

Us again!

Last year we went on a Mediterranean cruise with Celebrity and loved it. So, we're delighted to be able to offer you an amazing deal on a ten night cruise kicking off 6th May 2016, starting and ending in Rome.

The itinerary goes like this:

Rome - Sicily - Mykonos - Ephesus - Rhodes - Santorini - Athens - Salerno - Rome

Prices vary hugely depending on the class of cabin you choose, but the cruise itself is on an all-inclusive basis (gratuities included as well), with scheduled Al Italia flights and transfers.

Based on two sharing, the starting price per person comes in at just under £1,350 per person and we couldn't recommend Celebrity Cruises highly enough. Call, click, message or tweet for more info. In the meantime, here's a pic of the ship.

Send an email to our Rob at [email protected] (he knows the Canaries better than he knows his own children), knock us a message here on FB, tweet or call 020 3004 9698. You can read our takes on the Canaries on our head office's website here: http://tiny.cc/kkvr4x

The Canary Islands have long been a favourite of the British holidaymaker. Unlike other Spanish destinations, the Canaries are located just off the coast of North Africa so, while the weather does fluctuate, you can sunbathe for pretty much 12 months of the year – great for a winter sunshine break w…
