Foodies Festival, London.

There is no better way that spending a Saturday afternoon at a Foodies Festival at Hampton Court Palace. The food was divine, and the champagne flowed nicely, it was just a shame the rain poured down!

Jubilee Tea, The Marylebone Hotel, London.

The big screen mounted upon the wall in the lavishly decorated Marylebone Hotel showed the story of our Queen, and her Royal Family; the ups and downs, trials and tribulations, and this created the atmosphere for our delightful Jubilee themed Afternoon Tea. The tea selection was vast, and was well explained by our waitress.  They were so good in fact then we ended up trying…

The Aubin Cinema, London.

On first approach I certain felt that I wasn’t indie or cool enough to heading to a place like this, but once inside it’s a different story! Down in the basement there’s a quaint little bar, and the one room cinema. The toilets aren’t up to much, but in a basement what do you expect! Once seated in the most divine cinema I have laid…
