The final day of my Birthday Bonanza 2015 was my actual birthday, which tradition dictates is spent with my beautiful Husband. The day started off emotionally, as I unwrapped a brand new Macbook Pro and immediately burst into tears. Husband says he just wanted his Bluetooth keyboard back after my disaster earlier this year but I … More It’s always tea-time
The Southbank Centre is currently in the midst of their Festival of Love – a summer of music, art, and exhibitions culminating in a weekend of weddings at the end of August. I would dearly love to get married on the South Bank (which, as this blog has established, is one of my favourite places … More The pleasure, the privilege is mine
This blog will be peppered with photos of Dr Buckles on his bike if I keep going to see Bug. And I plan to keep going as watching music videos for a couple of hours is a very pleasurable way to spend an evening. I didn’t enjoy as much of the music in this show, but … More Stop Looking at the Monkey – Bug 47
A couple of months ago, I was browsing through the Jonathan Groff tag on Tumblr (as one does) and read a reference to a musical he’d just been cast at the Royal Festival Hall. GROFF IN LONDON! This was an opportunity too good to miss. I’ve seen him once before in Death Trap, but there was … More If I can’t take my coffee break, something inside of me dies
It hasn’t been the greatest week. Not only are we stuck with a Conservative government for the next 5 years, but The Mindy Project AND Revenge have been cancelled. At this point, I can’t decide what’s worse. Fortunately, Friday brought the fun back with a trip to the National Theatre for Tim’s birthday (shout out for … More I Think I Have a Soul
As Tim pointed out to me, I haven’t actually been to a ‘proper’ Bug. My very first last year was hosted by Doc Brown so apparently doesn’t count but hurrah, I have now lost my Adam Buxton Bug virginity with a visit to Bug 46 on Friday night. We were mesmerised by Dr Buckle’s pre-show video of … More Space Comma – Bug 46
Quick, I need something to blog about. February was a bust. Nothing happened. Shall I review the car wash at the beginning of the month, or the cough mixture I bought? OOO, I know! My trusty Southbank can always be relied upon – let’s go there! Actually, I wanted to treat Husband to lunch to celebrate the first … More It’s not the city, it’s the weather we love
Thursday felt like an insanely long day. It was the penultimate day of Ryan, Tim, Husband, and my Work Week Hustle Fitbit Challenge and I was determined not to be last (Tim and Husband were in a whole other league to Ryan and I). As it turns out, the 20,000 steps I did on Thursday nudged me firmly … More We wend our way through the longest part of the day
I should be packing for holiday which I am going on in two hours, but I’m still so buzzed from last night that I have to post. A couple of months ago, my BFF and I started on an epic journey to get tickets for the Lena Dunham book launch at the Royal Festival Hall. I … More The Internet of Women had been activated
Judging by their most recent collection, I have had a mild obsession with Tatty Devine since 2001. I was very excited when they launched their birthday collection, as it’d give me a chance to pink up some pieces I had missed out on when I was a poor twenty-something. And even more excited when they … More Happy Birthday Tatty Devine
