I've talked before about attending Leeds Light Night in 2023, but this time I wanted this post to be more informative and not just full of pretty light photos (although there's plenty of those, don't worry!) If you've never been to a Light Night style event, it can be easy to decide it's not something for you, or be worried about crowds, finding your way around and hidden … [Read more...]
Visiting Gods Own Junkyard, Walthamstow
Anyone who knows me well knows I looove colour, neon lights and anything a bit wacky, so the first time I spotted an Instagram post where someone had visited Gods Own Junkyard, I knew I wanted to go. Unfortunately, they're in London (Walthamstow) and I'm in Yorkshire (Leeds) so it was never a place I could just pop to for an hour, and going all the way to London just to see … [Read more...]
Spending a day in Hull
A few weeks ago, because Burnley were playing there in the evening, we decided we'd be spending a day in Hull. Even though Hull is just over an hour away from me, it's not somewhere I've been for pleasure, so I was looking forward to exploring, and we were pleasantly surprised at how much we fit in to our day. Read this post to find out some of the things you can do with a day, … [Read more...]
Meeting Meerkats at Bridlington Animal Park
Years ago, whilst volunteering with a Brownie Unit, the girls got to meet some animals, including a Meerkat, on a family fun day we held.

Ever since then, I've felt like I missed out. Meerkats are one of my favourite … [Read more...]
Visiting Portmeirion, Wales
In the summer of 2021, as Covid restrictions were starting to ease but the world was still pretty strange and we couldn't really fly, I got together with a fellow blogger, Kirsty, and we decided we wanted a UK day trip. After a bit of research we realised we both liked the idea of Portmeirion so I drove to pick her up and we headed off on a road trip to North Wales together. … [Read more...]
Spending a day in Liverpool
Liverpool, home of The Beatles, Superlambananas and Scouse, is one of my favourite UK cities and I recently headed back for a day to show J a few reasons why I love the city. I'm lucky enough to be close to the city, just over an hour's drive away and I used to go over there regularly-spending a day in Liverpool was so much fun. This post is talking about some of the things I'd … [Read more...]
