5 Things I’m Looking Forward To This Christmas Day

I’m watching Elf while I write this. Well I started to write this, then I ended up just watching Elf. So now I’m writing this with Elf quotes and Christmas music in my head. ‘I am a cotton-headed ninny-muggins’ If only I could craft as quickly as Buddy! I do love a Christmas film, even… Continue reading 5 Things I’m Looking Forward To This Christmas Day

Christmas Cheese, Chums and Norwich Cathedral

So last December I attempted Blogmas, this year I haven’t a written thing. Sometimes you’re too busy doing life to write about it. But that can be a good thing. December came quickly and has progressed even quicker. The festivities officially began. I’m all for Christmas but it has its time. December, not November. Although… Continue reading Christmas Cheese, Chums and Norwich Cathedral

Booking Accessible Tickets – Mission (almost) Impossible

Warning: this post may contain rants. In fact it is probably one big long rant! So Muse are on tour again, my single favourite band in the world. I loved them as a teen and then saw them at V Festival 2004. Why does 2004 not sound that long ago when it’s actually almost 15… Continue reading Booking Accessible Tickets – Mission (almost) Impossible

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

Invisible Cities – Having A Disability In Norwich

Something a little different from me today. I was invited to take part in an Invisible Cities Linkup crested by Sheryl of A Chronic Voice.  This brilliant idea from Sheryl invites people from all over the world to share stories and information about what it’s like living in their city with a disability or chronic… Continue reading Invisible Cities – Having A Disability In Norwich

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

11 Perks Of Being A Wheelchair User

I feel I’ve been ranting to you a lot lately. There’s been a fair few negatives in life with accessibility to the cinema and Latitude Festival being a bit of a downer. It’s not all doom and gloom though. So I thought this week I would share with you some of the upsides to having… Continue reading 11 Perks Of Being A Wheelchair User

Bums and Bubble Tea – Latitude Festival

You’ll know by now I love a festival, and Latitude Festival is by far my favourite. It’s magical, eclectic, arty and fairly civilised. I attended again this year for the 7th year in a row. I’ve raved about (in written form, I am not much of a raver in the other sense) Latitude Festival before… Continue reading Bums and Bubble Tea – Latitude Festival

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

Summer Holidays and Cinema Let Downs

Schools out (17 years ago for me), it’s the summer holidays. You’ve probably noticed the rise in little people running around. During the summer holidays I like to spend some time with my nieces, also we are a source of childcare. Just because school stops it doesn’t mean other jobs do too. As I’ve said… Continue reading Summer Holidays and Cinema Let Downs
