The View from the Shard
At the top of Western Europe’s tallest building, and London’s newest landmark, The View from the Shard offers spectacular 360° views over London for up to 40 miles.
London with the Russians
Every year I help organise a customer event for up to 40 Russian customers, this year it was taking place in London, over the four days we visited the Shard, Planet Hollywood, Madame Tussauds, Sherlock Holmes Museum, Tate Britain culminating with an award ceremony onboard HMS Belfast.
London Film and Comic Con 2013
It is that time of year again to head down to London to attend the London Film and Comic Con, as usual I plan to see a show when I am down there, this time it is “The Cripple of Inishmaan” part of the Michael Gandage season and staring Daniel Radcliffe.
Peppa Pig World
The day after we went to Thomas Land at Drayton Manor we went to Peppa Pig World at PaultonsPark near Southampton in Hampshire.
PaultonsPark had a lot of rides but we just focused on the Peppa Pig World part and spent most of the day there. Matthew enjoyed here more than yesterday and his favourite ride was the wave rider a tall steep slide which he loved.
Thomas Land at Drayton Manor Theme Park
Now that Matthew is two and a half we look at theme parks quite differently, instead of how many roller coasters and fast rides they have its how many children’s rides have they got?
That is why we went to Drayton Manor specifically because they have a Thomas The Tank Engine Land, Matthew likes the cartoons so thought it would be a great place to go.
Collectormania Milton Keynes – May 2013
Saturday 25th May
I join the line to get in at around 8.20 and when I finally get in I grab a few virtual queue tickets and then wait in line for Ariana Richards, the girl from Jurassic Park. She is great and chats to everyone.
Wales Comic Con 2013
After the let down of the previous Wales Comic Con (waiting for hours and hours to get in, celebrites who had run out of photographs to sign, etc.) I did a bit more preparation this time by purchasing an early bird ticket and printing off my own photographs for signing.
