I’m terrible with street names, tell me it’s near that Starbucks on the corner, or just past the book shop. It’s opposite the market or where the good chippy is. I was looking for somewhere interesting to have a birthday catch up with friends (I know I’ve had that surprise tea party, but that was … Continue reading Show Me The Dough – Mindoro (Norwich)
Party Like It’s Your Birthday
I knew something was going on. I didn’t know what, but I had my suspicions. It’s my birthday today. I’m 33. THIRTY THREE. When that happened I do not know, but I still feel in my twenties. Not my teens, I don’t want those again. So on Saturday, last Saturday, I was going bowling with … Continue reading Party Like It’s Your Birthday
It Wasn’t Just A Snow Day
It was a snow week. I realise your probably sick of snow photos all over social media, blogs and the like. I am too. But that’s not going to stop me sharing mine. So just in case you somehow missed it the UK was hit by The Beast From The East last week, the white … Continue reading It Wasn’t Just A Snow Day
Courgette Cakes and Steampunk Coffee – Alchemista Norwich
I’d seen work being done on a building on St Gregory’s Alley a few months back while I was eating chips from Grosvenor Fish Bar. Actually it must have been quite a few months ago, as on this occasion I believe I was eating outdoors, which never happens as much as I’d like due to … Continue reading Courgette Cakes and Steampunk Coffee – Alchemista Norwich
Not Just Any Afternoon Tea – M&S Norwich
As I haven’t written about tea for a while and it’s been a bit of quiet news week here at Wheelescapades, I thought I’d tell you about a spontaneous afternoon tea I had with a friend a while back. This was not just any afternoon tea, this was an M&S afternoon tea (I know, sorry). … Continue reading Not Just Any Afternoon Tea – M&S Norwich
8 Tips For Sale Shopping With Wheels
Ok so I know it’s probably a little late for catching the best after Christmas deals, ‘January Sales’ as they used to be called, back in the day when there wasn’t constantly ongoing sales everywhere. Back when you really got a bargain and shops didn’t just bring out a load of summer stock, junk, a … Continue reading 8 Tips For Sale Shopping With Wheels
Norwich Castle and I
I don’t know about you but I find that often when you live in or near a place you can end up taking it for granted, you don’t really look at what’s around you, you don’t appreciate the facilities and attractions, you don’t visit the ‘tourist’ destinations. I’m way too guilty of this myself. Don’t … Continue reading Norwich Castle and I
Christmas Balls
I missed it last year and I was determined not to let it pass me by this time. I mean it looked amazing and bizarre at the same time. I was intrigued and disgusted, curious and apprehensive. I’ve waited a whole year for it to return, just so I can say I had it, I … Continue reading Christmas Balls
A Jolly Good Day – On The Bus
Today (well a few days ago by the time you’re reading this) I had probably the nicest bus driver I’ve ever encountered. Odd way to start a post you might think, but for me finding nice customer service, or just meeting friendly people can make or break your day. There’s nothing more disheartening than getting … Continue reading A Jolly Good Day – On The Bus
Best Brunch in Town – House Cafe Norwich
I think I’ve found THE best ‘Full English’ breakfast in Norwich. Which is quite a statement for myself, as I love a good brunch. I am quite fussy though in the way that it is cooked, runny yolk, not greasy, quality sausage, crispy bacon. So to please me it must be great! I had this … Continue reading Best Brunch in Town – House Cafe Norwich
