A bit of culture

Posted on April 28, 2012 by fromthehorse'smouth

I’ve never posted about anything like this before, because the only culture I usually get is this sort: But last night I went (check me out) to the ballet. A friend and I had been saying we wanted to go when I saw that the Vienna … Continue reading →

Happy St George’s Day! I only remembered it was when I saw an offer on something random like double cream at Sainsbury’s on Saturday 🙂 But as it is the patron saint of England’s day, what about some classic English food? Like this, for example: … Continue reading →

Slightly struggling

Posted on April 1, 2012 by fromthehorse'smouth

I wasn’t feeling too special today. But I can’t ask for any sympathy as it’s entirely self-inflicted. I’ll just mention Jagerbombs, double vodkas, a free bottle of champagne and the throwing of some (possibly, or not) amazing dancefloor shapes – and … Continue reading →
