Searching for Blackbeard’s Treasure!

I am back writing!!! It’s been a while, huh!? Lockdown gave me the attention span of a goldfish and the capacity to only watch arty/craft programmes (Big Flower Fight, Home is where art is and Grayon Perry’s art club are my top recommendations)…not necessarily anything any wants to read about. But I am slowly making…

Welsh National Opera: The Marriage of Figaro

“[The Marriage of Figaro] demands to be seen in the theatre. Its plot is complicated, but this is something to be relished not feared; its complexity is part of the work’s raison d’etre. Life is messy, and Figaro reflects that.” Aidan Lang, General Director of Welsh National Opera The closest I have previously come to…

Vegan wine and cheese night!

I haven’t had the brain power to sit and write a proper post about food/drink recently (OK I have been fully addicted to Love is Blind instead, sorry!) BUT there are some evenings that deserve more than just an instagram post. An evening that brings together some dreamy people to provide all the vegan wine…

Glitch Eatery Launch!

Glitch has always been much more than a hair salon: art gallery, music venue, plant shop and kitchen! The multi-concept store is soon to have a little bit of a makeover though to launch their new eatery, focused on the “Bunwich” – where they are mixing up fashion and food even more.  “What is a bunwich?”…

FareShare – Green Food Tour

There are times when I have to sit and reflect on how lucky I am. Firstly, I was born in the best city full of the dreamiest people… And more seriously, I am fortunate enough to have never worried about going hungry – something I so often take for granted. Over the last few weeks I…

FAME – THE MUSICAL! at Bristol Hippodrome

A miserable Monday night was made better by an invite to Bristol Hippodrome’s opening night of Fame – The Musical 30th Anniversary Tour. The absolute perfect excuse to treat my theatrical friend the day before her birthday (what excellent timing!) and bring back nostalgic memories of her time in Performing Arts school. “…It has the…

There are some people in your life that particularly deserved to be spoilt. Luckily I got to spoil just that person recently when I took my friend Gemma to the delightful Hotel du Vin Bristol. I was kindly invited to visit as they launched their new Prix Fixe menu. Created by their Head Chef Marcus…
