England: Top Things To Do During A Weekend In London

Even as Brits we love nothing more than a weekend in London. We live up in rural East Yorkshire and yes we have cities close by, but nothing compares to the hustle and bustle of The Big Smoke. London is super accessible with numerous airports, the Eurostar terminal and direct train routes from all over the country, making it a great destination for a day trip, weekend, or even longer, budget dependant of course.

5 Troubles You Don’t Want To Face on a Foreign Destination Stag Do

5 Troubles You Don’t Want To Face on a Foreign Destination Stag Do

As wedding season approaches, it is likely that (hen and) stag weekends galore are being planned. I had a local hen weekend, however, Mr ESLT and his mates jumped on a plane and hit Temple Bar in Dublin, Ireland for a weekend that he cannot even remember(!) The trend for many is now to head to a far-off land (Spain, Germany and Eastern Europe are all firm favourites in Mr ESLT’s group of friends), even though the activities that are undertaken are usually the same regardless of where in the world the stag do is.

March, on the other hand, was a blogging frenzy and we published a number of posts – why not check them out if you haven’t already.

Product Review

Product Review: Thermos Light and Compact Flask, 0.35L

Product Review: Thermos Light and Compact Flask, 0.35L

I’ve got a confession. I may have ‘borrowed’ Mr ESLT’s flask a few months ago and I may have misplaced it, ok I did misplace it, but never told him. Since then I have denied all knowledge of ever even seeing it. I know, I know, I’m a bad person. I had always been my intention to replace it, but then it always slipped my mind.
