So Christmas is over, or the apocalypse as I like to refer to it by. We've stuffed ourselves silly like there's no tomorrow. Stocked up on a months supply of food for 2 days. And now January is here, fitness ads are on the telly, we are ready for detox! A bit of a cynic… Continue reading Christmas, New Year, and those in between

Coast to Coast – Birthday Brunch
Just a quick hello today (compared to my last essay of a blog post!) to tell you about one of the best brunches I have ever eaten. An unexpected delight, unexpected tasty food is even more delicious! It's a friend of mine, Charlene's, 30th birthday this week, today in fact. As one of her multiple… Continue reading Coast to Coast – Birthday Brunch
Coast to Coast Norwich Riverside
Last weekend I enjoyed brunch at Coast to Coast for a friends 30th birthday. You can read more about the delicious celebrations here. Below I review their accessible toilet. Convenient for me as I drink way to much tea! This bathroom was situation very near our table so I didn't have to navigate the restaurant… Continue reading Coast to Coast Norwich Riverside
To Wee or Not to Wee – How accessible is an accessible toilet?
This a post that will be updated over time, so you'll need to keep an eye for new additions! Having a wee is something I think many people take for granted, and don't realise how something they do every day, many times a day, without even thinking about, can be a constant issue for others.… Continue reading To Wee or Not to Wee – How accessible is an accessible toilet?
Away With The Girls – Center Parcs Elveden Forest
Our holiday in sketches on the lodge chalkboard When you think of Center Parcs most people think adventure, outdoor activity, action, cycling, and most probably able-bodied, not necessarily thinking it would be the ideal holiday for a someone with wheels. Don't get me wrong there are a lot of activities that do require fitness and mobility.… Continue reading Away With The Girls – Center Parcs Elveden Forest
Wimpole Estate – down on the farm
Earlier this month I was invited as part of a group of individuals to Wimpole Estate in Cambridge. My role was to take part in a tour of the farm and to mention and discuss any access issues that arose. I'd never heard of Wimpole Estate before, even though Cambridge isn't that far from where I… Continue reading Wimpole Estate – down on the farm
Spa Day – a tranquil experience or a costly inconvenience – Bannatyne Banbury
While staying at Douglas House in Oxford recently, a friend and I decided to check out a local spa for some chill time and a bit of a pampering. Fleur, being a spa virgin, left me to research and plan (grimaces hoping to make Fleur's first experience a good one!). Then again, leaving Fleur to plan… Continue reading Spa Day – a tranquil experience or a costly inconvenience – Bannatyne Banbury
Cafe Rouge Norwich Chapelfield
This weekend I visited Cafe Rouge Norwich Chapelfield for a pre theatre dinner (you can read the evenings events here). However my aim now is to describe and review their accessible toilet. This is by no means a 'perfect' accessible loo, however it is one I get slightly excited about and I am more than willing… Continue reading Cafe Rouge Norwich Chapelfield
Comedy and Cafes
I really enjoy going to the theatre. One of my favourite ways to spend an evening out is watching live comedy. Having a laugh is good for the soul, it takes you away from daily life for a couple of hours. It puts you in the mind of somebody else, their quirks and opinions. This… Continue reading Comedy and Cafes
Latitude 2016 – Festival of Fairytales (and my fragile neck)
Being a massive festival lover (there's probably a tiny hippy hidden within me somewhere), I ventured on my 5th consecutive trip to Latitude Festival in July this year. I've been to a few festivals, including Reading and V Festival, but Latitude is by far my favourite. It's like my happy place. It's a festival… Continue reading Latitude 2016 – Festival of Fairytales (and my fragile neck)
