The Secret Supper Society

I read about The Secret Supper Society, a home restaurant run by Jules Thomas, in foodie magazine Crumbs and it sounded brilliant! After booking a table a few months in advance (they get booked up quickly), George and I headed out to Somerton, a small village in Oxfordshire to give it a try last autumn. It’s taken me a month to write this one up (winter is for hibernating right?) but it’s definitely worth sharing…

Weaving at The Forge

I recently discovered first hand a really cool creative space in Bristol, called The Forge, which hosts a number of workshops and gatherings. I was here for a weaving workshop with Lucy Davidson of Peas and Needles. Pictured is me in the throws of making! 

Blackberry Season

It’s blackberry picking time!

On the Stroud Valleys Trail

It might be 1 September but the weather is warm and I’m still clinging onto summer.

Last of the Summer Days

With autumn on the horizon, I am planning on making the most of the last of the summer days. I’ve put together a wish list of what I’d like to do before the season changes.

Summer Days in London

I love trips to London – always different and always busy and in the summertime you get to sip cocktails in trendy rooftop bars and watch movies under the stars. In mid July we spent a few nights in Tower Hill to soak up the capital’s summer vibes.

Wonderful Woolacombe

Woolacombe is one of the places I keep going back to. I fell in love with the North Devon seaside village when my husband first took me here in 2003; he has been holidaying here since he was knee high and I’m so glad he introduced it to me all those years ago. Last weekend, with a group of family, we headed south to Woolacombe once again and as always, had a wonderful time.
