I’m conscious I have yet to review any of the grand new openings in SS9. Still haven’t done Navana Lounge. That’s been there for ages now. What about the Brunch Co, loving the look of that place. Nor have I been to the Corner Club, Toppers and Toast, not even the new Acorn veggie deli! Yeah yeah, the list goes on I know.
I’ve said this before; food and travel go hand in hand. Its what those holiday memories are made of right?
If you're familiar with red days and green days, weigh-ins and meal replacement shakes, or people telling you to "just drink a glass of water if you feel hungry", there will be wry nods aplenty for you at Fat Friends the Musical, which is showing this week at the Cliffs Pavilion.
Pizza you’ve beaten me, I’ve really been put through the ring. I wrote last week, and I quote ‘Lou and I ate pizza every day; yeah that’s right EVERY DAY, and sometimes more than one!’
Here it is! Part two of my European tour! Lou and I are in Italy, Rome to be precise, and what a chic place it is. I’m sure we all have that preconception of Italians; whatever the occasion they just look extremely stylish. Gents wearing razor sharp suits, ladies in glamorous outfits, smart shoes, oh and always wearing sunglasses.
Mindgame is a sharp thriller, full of wit and homage to the genre, but be warned, not all is as it seems within the grounds of Fairfield Hospital.
Yep, once a year, the freight house in Rochford becomes a beer hall. It’s got to be the largest beer festival in the area; you’d need days here to sample all the ales and ciders on offer.
I wasn’t going to write this. For months it’s been at the back of mind, should I write about this place or not? I didn’t really think anyone else would share my enthusiasm for a simple cafe.
The good people behind Hoppily have one sole purpose in life, to educate the masses about beer! Praise the Lord!
This iconic building gazes down over the estuary, just as it has done for over 200 years, and looks as good as it did back in the day.
Beautiful – The Carole King Musical, is the Olivier award-winning West End show which has embarked on its first ever UK Tour. Clearly a popular choice given that The Cliff’s Pavilion in Southend was bursting at the seams.
Last night I saw the opening night of The Wipers Times and it is one of the most enjoyable, poignant and funny plays I've seen in a long time.
East London, 1965. The explosion of pills, thrills and high-collared shirts that was the mod scene is just about to begin, and at the centre of it are four young cockney lads, keen on continental clothing, US-imported blues and getting out of the button-down scene of the generation before them. This is the story of the Small Faces.
If you love Rock ‘n Roll and looking for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, a night out to see Dreamboats and Petticoats would be money well spent.
