Stepping outside of the tube station in Hammersmith, West London, we were a little unsure where we were heading for our afternoon tea. We knew we were off to The Melody restaurant, and we knew it was located within St Paul’s Hotel. That was what our gift experience voucher informed us anyway. We had been gifted this afternoon tea at The Melody by our eldest…

This cuppa and a chat post comes off the back of a recent experience, and the discussion I then had a with a few people following on from that. It does talk mainly about the blogging industry, but I think my non-blogging readers may find it interesting too. Grab your cuppa people, lets talk about why I will work for free. I have wrote my…

In truth, I wasn’t really too sure what I was expecting of Jersey. It was not somewhere that had been on our radar, yet all of a sudden we were booked and going! To make things crystal clear, in this post we are talking about things to do in Jersey in the Channel Islands, not the Jersey in America. A 50 minute flight from the…

Picture a manor house, built in the 14th century, with grounds that are far reaching and manicured to perfection.

Well, we were that fancy last weekend when we headed up to the 39th floor of the iconic Gherkin to try the Searcys Sunday brunch in the Helix restaurant. Now, Sunday brunch at The Gherkin comprises of four courses, so…

Cast your mind back to your childhood. Did you ever go down to the bottom of your garden, be it a big or small area, to investigate what was under rocks or whether there really was fairies living at the end? Can you recall getting into the car with your parents to drive to your cousins house, and it seeming that you were in the…

Life is for living fully and enjoying after all isn’t it! One of the things that Nik and I vowed to do a couple of years back, was explore more of the beautiful…
