With London on the doorstep we are always out and about in the capital city discovering new places and enjoying new experiences. We may be bias but we do believe that London is the best city in the world with a huge amount to offer.
Recently at work there have been a lot of changes taking place; some people are leaving, some are changing role, some are being promoted and there are some new starters. What better way to celebrate all of this than with a classic team lunch! The destination of choice on this occasion […]
I recently experienced my first proper taste of Vietnamese food by heading to The House of Ho restaurant on Percy Street in Fitzrovia, London. Vietnamese food is certainly not something that immediately jumps to mind when family or friends suggest going out for dinner so when I was invited for dinner with […]
This weekend it was my sister’s boyfriend Sam’s birthday and so Sarah and I headed down to Hampton Court Palace from Milton Keynes for a surprise ice skating trip for Sam along with other family and friends. Notably we had pre-booked our tickets online which gave us a 45 minute […]
Today I headed down to London to see AC/DC perform at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London. I never got the opportunity to see the Olympic Park during the London 2012 Olympics so this was a first visit for me. To add to that first, it was also the […]
This was it, the gig which I, along with thousands of others had been looking forward to for a very long time. Due to the tragedy that occurred at the Bataclan in Paris on 13th November the original gig date was cancelled out of respect for the victims of the […]
For the past 2 years I’d been hearing about this band called Cute Cute Death around the office at work. I couldn’t escape it. The reason? My mate Wayne is the drummer. The band have been going for a few years now and this week embarked on a 5 day […]
6 months ago I was bought a Red Letter Days gift experience from my parents for a trip to The View from The Shard and a meal at Marco Pierre White’s Steak & Alehouse in Shoreditch. Having had a pretty hectic start to the year Sarah and I simply didn’t […]
On Friday night I headed over to the 2015 UK Blog Awards with Matt and Alina who work within my team at Debenhams HQ in recognition of the UK’s best bloggers. Alina is an award winning lifestyle / interiors blogger herself, running The Fairytale Pretty Picture, and had been invited to […]
Last weekend (29th November) the mighty England took on Australia at Twickenham as part of the QBE Internationals and what better way to watch the game than from a corporate box on the halfway line coupled with a full hospitality package of a hot Indian buffet, free flowing beer and […]
Well, where do I start with this post other than to say it was appalling how my friends and I were treated recently at the Crown & Anchor on Drummond Street in London by the manager. Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve been visiting The Crown & Anchor both with […]
Last night I attended Debenhams’ womens Christmas jumper party which was fully organised and run by a member of my team, Alina (she has an award winning lifestyle blog over at the fairytale pretty picture if you’re interested). Alina organised everything for this event over several weeks and her efforts really paid […]
What better way to spend the evening after a long week at work than by keeping things simple and meeting up with my other half for a nice meal and a few drinks. Being in London there are thousands of restaurants and pubs to choose from so it’s always great […]
My 9-5 exists in London meaning that as a Bedfordshire guy I must undertake the daily commute with London Midland. For years I put off getting a job in London as the thought of early starts, late nights home and the hammering of my wallet couldn’t justify it. I know […]
