Second Breakfast
This week I’ve been slightly inspired by The Hobbit, by that I mean taking any given opportunity to make like a Hobbit and eat. I took a trip into Lewisham to have lunch with my mother, she knew about this cute place that did wonderful food along the high street. The cafe is called The Brockley Mess and it’s situated just a few minutes walk down the road from Brockley Station. We didn’t know the area very well so we spent a fair amount of time trying to work out which road it was down, turns out it was straight down the road, no hassle to get to at all. After diving in the front door of the cafe and heating ourselves up to a normal temperature (it was -3 degrees outside) we took a look over the menu. It was pretty much perfect for the weather...
Earls Court; Letter to the Mayor
Dear, Boris Johnson. I want to start by saying that I am a supporter of you and most of the policies and agendas that you have in relation to London. You are inspiring in lots of ways and I think that you have made a lot of young people think about politics when they never did before. London is an inspiring and beautiful city that has a lot going for it in terms of its events and tourism industry; this is something that I have been interested in for a long time and as I am just beginning my career in this industry I feel that I should stand up for it. As shown with the Olympics, amazing things can and have happened in London! This is why I believe that the demolition of Earls Court is potentially dangerous...
Olympics 2012
The fateful month is nearly upon us, the flags in the west end were hung up last week and the torch is gradually snaking its way closer to the capital as I’m typing. Many peoples opinions of the olympics 2012 were very negative at the beginning of the year. We were hearing lots of worrying stories in the news which didn’t help at all and most people were dreading the summer. However, I feel the excitement is starting to brew this month, with the queens jubilee celebrations a few weeks ago people seem to be getting excited about another chance to have some fun. The Jubilee was a great opportunity to see what lies ahead for the 2012 games, a ton of people flocked to the city to see the flotilla, the concert or to catch a glimpse of the queen on...
Warner Brothers – Harry Potter
A few weeks back I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of the new attraction that will make all Harry Potter fans very excited. The Warner Brothers tour in Leavesden is a little out of the way, it’s not in the centre of London but you can access it by train. We travelled up there with Golden Tours who were fantastic, unfortunately we weren’t able to ride the Harry Potter buses as they were still being painted at the time but the coach we took was perfect. As a huge Harry Potter fan I got really excited as we rolled up to the front of the studios. After some lunch we jumped into the Harry Potter tour, where we were greeted by the video versions of Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint which was a great way to set off the tour. So I...
Day Trip – York
Today was my first real journey into the wonders of what Northern England has to offer. For someone who enjoys travelling I’m ashamed to say that I have fairly limited knowledge and experience of the UK as a whole and feel it’s something I need to pursue. So, my first venture into the unknown was York. York is a city in the county of Yorkshire, the only thing that I really knew about Yorkshire is a years worth of Emmerdale that I watched a few years back, so basically nothing at all. When I stepped out onto the platform at the station this morning my first thought, okay, second thought was about how stunning the city looked (My first thought was about the abysmal weather which seemed to descend upon my train the minute we pulled into the...
