Its been almost a year since I saw Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I'm not going to write much about it because every time I have sat down to type up my experience I'm reminded that shortly after my visit to London the whole world changed. And now theatre visits seem a century ago and it feels... Continue Reading →
Bucket list update: 123. Visit London Borough food market.
My gosh. What a busy, crazy, vibrant place! All the food and drink that you could possibly imagine in one place. Borough market is iconic, the most famous food and drink market in England, it had to feature on my bucket list. The whole place is full of the sounds of cooking, selling and buying....

Bucket list update: 251. Go for a themed Afternoon Tea.
I love afternoon tea! I’ve been to some pretty good ones. There is something wonderful about endless cups of tea and a steady supply of yummy sandwiches and sweet treats, oh and scones! I do love scones. I’ve been for some ‘posh afternoon teas’ in some truly lovely locations, but I kept seeing themed teas... Continue Reading →
The food fanatic and her fussy eater: London Eating!
A few weeks ago I spent my weekend in the capital; without my fussy eater! This gave me a chance to eat out in places I wouldn't normally and not have to worry about husband friendly dinners. Afternoon tea, baked camembert and doughnuts were all on the list (although the hubby would quite frankly love... Continue Reading →
Bucket list update: 105. Watch a play I would never have thought of watching.
It’s easy to get use to watching the same old thing; after all why fix it if it isn't broken? I love the theatre but find I tend to only go and see musicals. Growing up I use to watch all sorts of things. My Aunty was a stage manager so I was lucky enough... Continue Reading →
Bucket list update: 69. Picnic in Hyde Park.
Hyde park is one of my favourite places! Somewhere to get away from the crowded and chaos. An open space in the middle of the crazy, crammed city. I love it. It’s such an iconic part of London and it’s always great to people watch while relaxing. Despite the numerous times I’ve been I’ve never... Continue Reading →
Tower of London Premier inn Hub.
We had a dinner night in London this week. Due to a chaotic few weeks prior we hadn’t planned our time away very well. A week before we where due to go we still didn’t have our hotel booked. So cue a scramble to get ourselves organised. Karl booked us into a premier inn. Not... Continue Reading →
The food fanatic and her fussy eater: Eating out in London.
No recipes today! I haven’t had to cook for a little while because we have had a mini holiday. A few days away. The first night was a set menu in the Tower of London; my fussy eater liked none of it and only ate 2 new potato’s (begrudgingly). I quite liked most of the... Continue Reading →
Bucket list update: 141. Visit the British Museum.
I have been obsessed with visiting the British museum since watching The mummy as a kid. The 1999 film not the new one: which pales in comparison. I fell in love with the film and often rewatch it. It’s taken us ages to actually get out and visit the museum. (It’s now 2018! I think... Continue Reading →
