Burgers and Booths – Five Guys

I did something totally unheard of last weekend. I visited a fast food restaurant chain! This isn't so strange, you might think. But if you know me and are reading this you'll know it is, and you may have just let out a little gasp or chocked on your coffee! I'm not a food snob… Continue reading Burgers and Booths – Five Guys

Nominated for the Liebster Award 2017!

Firstly just the fact that my blog has been read by people other than my friends, people that haven't been nagged to read it, is unthinkable. But that I have been chosen from the thousands of bloggers out there as a nominee for an award is mind boggling! I have been nominated by Belle and… Continue reading Nominated for the Liebster Award 2017!

Elbowed in the Forest

I've been a fan of Elbow around 15 years. I like to think of myself as one of the early day fans, I enjoyed their music before it was cool to enjoy it, before some tunes became overplayed on the radio, before they were 'mainstream'. I have been lucky enough to see them play live… Continue reading Elbowed in the Forest

Russell Brand Re:Birth – Norwich

What a week it has been! A week so full it's worthy of two blog posts, both involving some important men in my life. Let's begin with the first significant man, Russell Brand. (You can read about the second one here.) Monday marked my 6th time seeing this splendid chap. Don't judge, I'm not some obsessed… Continue reading Russell Brand Re:Birth – Norwich

Baby Shower – Oaklands Norwich

Baby shower and a brewSo my friend is pregnant! Well she was, she's now Mummy to the adorable baby Luna. My oldest friend was having a baby, not my oldest friend in age (although she is getting closer to 30 everyday!), I should say my longest friend.

Turtle Bay Norwich – A Rollercoaster in Pyjamas

We've all had various experiences when out dining with family or friends, bad food, good food, poor service, great service. As someone that really likes to try new places, but is also restricted as to where I can access, I often end up sticking to my comfortable favourites, just like an old faithful pair of… Continue reading Turtle Bay Norwich – A Rollercoaster in Pyjamas

Birthday Celebrations – The Waffle House Norwich

Just a quick(ish) hello today to tell you about a new exciting find of mine. Well in no way is it actually new, in fact The Waffle House has been in Norwich for well over 30 years, and I've passed it on many occasions thinking I really must check this place out, as I'd heard so… Continue reading Birthday Celebrations – The Waffle House Norwich

It’s The DOD – David O’Doherty at Norwich Playhouse

Norwich Playhouse is one of my favourite places, and has been for a few years now. I properly discovered this arty venue while I was studying my MA at Norwich University of the Arts, which main building is situated just opposite. This cosy, friendly, quirky bar and theatre became my second home. The relaxing atmosphere perfect… Continue reading It’s The DOD – David O’Doherty at Norwich Playhouse

Spontaneity and The Noise Next Door

I was spontaneous! I did something spur of the moment! By spur of the moment I mean I went to a gig 4 days after booking tickets. So close to the gig date that I couldn't have the tickets posted. That's how cool I am... I had to collect them. Calm down I hear you… Continue reading Spontaneity and The Noise Next Door
