Firstly tell us who you are, how long you have worked at the TIC and what you like to do in your spare time...
Linda Bevan, Visitor Services Assistant at Birmingham Tourism Centres. I've worked at the Birmingham Tourism Centres for just over five years and loved every minute of it. In my spare time I like to go out with my family to the cinema and for meals, and also visit the many parks and museums in Birmingham.

I love Al Faisals in the Balti Triangle and the Living Room in Birmingham City Centre.
What do you miss the most about Birmingham when you're away?
I miss the friendly people and the Bullring.
Share a Birmingham secret with us...
One third of the jewellery manufactured in the UK is made within a mile of Birmingham City Centre (from Birmingham's 250-year-old Jewellery Quarter).
What's the quirkiest attraction Birmingham has to offer?
Newman Brothers Coffin Factory & Museum or the Pen Room.
Tell us some of the most popular places to stay...
The Malmaison, Hotel du Vin, the City Inn and the Radison Hotel.
And finally, what's your favourite thing to do in Birmingham?
My favourite thing to do in Birmingham - shopping in the Bullring and then a drink on the canalside at Brindleyplace, watching the world go by.
