I was lucky enough to be invited to a festive photography masterclass back in November, with Viking. Heading into Dirty Martini in the city centre meant that I was already feeling the Christmas spirit, especially as the German Market had been set-up. Walking up the stairs in the venue, I spotted tables filled with crackers [...]
If you haven't guessed already, I've just enjoyed my 35th birthday. I just never pictured myself at this age (lolz); I mean, I didn't think I'd die young or anything, but even now when I think about future plans, I peak at about 30. Anyway, it's been an interesting ride so far, and I'd like [...]
So, I was invited to an evening of whiskey (which can also be spelt whisky! I know, who knew? Well, Vicky did actually) tasting. I'm not drinking. "Don't worry! There'll be food, and some of the best company in Brum". I'm there. What food though? Where is it? Can I smell the whiskies instead? It's [...]

I'm actually writing up this review at the start of being sober for the foreseeable future due to health [...]
Snuggled into a little row of shops in Edgbaston, opposite the White Swan Pub, sits Don Diego; a restaurant run by two brothers, serving up fresh homestyle food full of Mediterranean flavour. I visited on a Saturday night with my husband Marv; we were lucky enough to share a table and have a double date [...]
So, I thought I’d document what I consider to be a bad week regarding my anxiety. It was actually a recent week, and it’s fresh in my mind, so I feel like you’ll get a thorough account of my thought process, behaviour, and coping mechanisms. I know that I said in my previous anxiety post [...]
Dear Fay, Would you like to come and try the coffee and brunch offering at the new Wayland's Yard on Bull Street, in your favourite city of Brum? Love from The lovely team at East Village PR x (this is how I read the email anyway; there may have been some artistic licence with the [...]
