Taylors Of Harrogate Tea – Caffeine Free Infusions

Let’s talk tea. It’s been a while since I’ve written a tea review post. Since this one way back when. They say tea solves everything, and it’s been an odd few months so I’m pretty sure a brew review is called for. A celebration, stress, time to unwind, procrastination, deliberation and devastation. A tea is… Continue reading Taylors Of Harrogate Tea – Caffeine Free Infusions

Pickles, Bugs and Turkish Delight – Peter Beales Rose Gardens

Why is it we travel miles to visit places but never take advantage of what’s on our doorstep? Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think it is. We talk about beautiful views when on holiday, there are plenty right around us though. It was due to be a sunny Saturday (it wasn’t all that… Continue reading Pickles, Bugs and Turkish Delight – Peter Beales Rose Gardens

Circus Of Horrors Psycho Asylum

We’ve all seen The Greatest Showman haven’t we? The musical movie sensation that brought circus back and made us realise Zak Efron is in fact a man. A grown up one, no longer singing at the most inappropriate times, in school. I have a vague memory of going to the circus as a child, I… Continue reading Circus Of Horrors Psycho Asylum

Top 10 Tea Posts – National Tea Day

It’s that day of the year made for me. Not Easter, although it is that too and it does mean I’ll be eating a tasty roast, followed by a hot cross bun, surrounded by mini Creme Eggs. Oh I do love seasonal foods! Today is also National Tea Day. Easter and National Tea Day, what… Continue reading Top 10 Tea Posts – National Tea Day

A Cheesy Lifestyle – Marmalades Royal Arcade Norwich

You probably already know, I love cheese. Grated, melted, deep fried, mature, soft, blue, coated, spread, sliced, on a burger, with pasta, on toast. I love all the cheese. I don’t know how I’ve been blogging for almost three years yet I still haven’t spoken about the magical cheese on toast served at one of… Continue reading A Cheesy Lifestyle – Marmalades Royal Arcade Norwich

Compostable, Biodegradable, Favourite – Cinema City Norwich

Yesterday I went to my favourite cinema, to see The Favourite. A marmite of a film maybe, but then I love marmite. The costume, the crassness, the Colman, this cynical comedy had many c words. It wasn’t a crying with laughter film, but more of a snort along. Studying textiles, history and architecture at Art… Continue reading Compostable, Biodegradable, Favourite – Cinema City Norwich

Best Nine 2018 – Blogging Celebrations

Happy New Year’s Eve! I know we say it all the time, and I sound about 90 years old, but I really can’t believe 2018 is almost over. It’s been a mix of a year, as is life. New Year’s Eve is a time for celebration and reflection. Looking back on achievements and regrets and… Continue reading Best Nine 2018 – Blogging Celebrations

Friends and Fireworks on a Rooftop

I’ve never much celebrated Guy Fawkes night. As a kid I remember standing (sitting) around waiting no end of time for something that lasted just a few minutes.  That was when there were bonfires, do these things still have bonfires or is that another thing health and safety stole? Anyway I’d be freezing my driving… Continue reading Friends and Fireworks on a Rooftop

Chocolate High Tea – The Assembly House Norwich

So I went to another afternoon tea. Kind of. The Assembly House Norwich were putting on a one evening only ‘Chocolat High Tea’, so obviously I had to go. I have spelt that right, the missing e isn’t missing. This high tea was chocolate themed to complement the movie Chocolat that would be showing after… Continue reading Chocolate High Tea – The Assembly House Norwich

An Afternoon Tea Of Wizardry – The Assembly House Norwich

The Assembly House in Norwich is one of my favourite places to go for afternoon tea. In fact it’s probably one of my favourite places to go for a brew or lunch or cake. It’s a grand Georgian building in the middle of a busy city. It feels like another world. It’s beautiful gardens, elegant… Continue reading An Afternoon Tea Of Wizardry – The Assembly House Norwich
