" if you're going mutton there's not much point buying expensive gear. "


Is that professional advice ? I'd always understood that loosing one's hearing involved becoming less able to hear certain pitches ,high I think . So simply amplifying everything would be the equivalent of having glasses that simply magnified everything .


Was thinking that decent quality might be beneficial .


Would be interested to know anyone's experience ,having hearing problems myself .

No not a professional opinion at all and I may have got it completely arse about face, but all headphones will amplify sound uniformly. My father has high frequency deafness so it just struck me that the greater clarity from more expensive gear reproducing a broader frequency range and perfectly balanced sound would be lost on him, but I'm happy to be corrected.

If you need the type of cordless headphones with a charging base station I'd recommend Sennheiser RS220's you can also add a second pair so your partner can use cordles headphones too - we swear by them - http://www.hifigear.co.uk/sennheiser-rs220-headphones.html

There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
