Review – Goldbrick House

So I’ve been meaning to review the wonderful Goldbrick House since last August when we went for our Accounting Geek Reunion 2 and loved it lots then. However, I’m a lazy arse. I thought you guys knew this by now?
Friday was Alex’s (sorry, aka The Boy) birthday, so as part of his celebrations, I took [...]

Review: Sleeping Beauty

On Monday, I was very lucky enough to be given a ticket to see the ballet Sleeping Beauty at the Hippodrome. The week before, Kate asked via Twitter if any one would be interested in going with her, as she has won two tickets.
We were sat in the grand circle, quite central but just off [...]

Oh No Yo! Sushi

I love sushi. So its kinda obvious that I like Yo! Sushi. As with any high street chain, you know what to expect, you know you wont get any nasty surprises, and you can expect the level of service to be quite decent.
I recently went to London, and had a bit of time to kill [...]

Glee

One of my favourite new shows is Glee, a musical teen comedy-drama (I refuse to write dramedy, comedrama or any other amalgamation of the two). Its about a high school “show choir” or “glee club” (anyone else kinda glad we don’t have those in this country? No? Just me?) set in Ohio.
I’m trying to think [...]

10 iPhone Apps

With more and more people now becoming iPhone (or iPod Touch) owners, I thought I would share which apps I use on a daily basis
Ping – This is probably my current favourite app, and I’ve only been using it a few days! Its probably easiest to compare it to a text messaging service, except that [...]

Review – Cosmo

For my other birthday meal, a few of us headed up to Cosmo on the Clifton Triangle. Cosmo opened up at the beginning of the year, but we hadn’t really had the chance to go there before. I’d never been to an “all you can eat” place before, so it was all a little strange [...]

Review – Zerodegrees

For my birthday, I was lucky enough to be taken by Louise and Nathan to ZeroDegrees, a microbrewery located on Park Row in Bristol.

I hadn’t been to ZeroDegrees before, although had sampled their beers at various Bristol festivals and had passed the building many times. Despite this, I was still a little surprised to see [...]

Review – Rocotillos

I thought I’d start off my Bristol reviews thing with the place where I have been the most, and where I take most of my friends. But thats because its SO DAMN GOOD.
Rocotillos is an American diner located at the top of Park Street. Its a tiny tiny place (seating about 30 people?) and serves [...]

Banksy v Bristol Museum

Last weekend, Zoe & James and Helen & Dave came to Bristol to see me, and to go to the Banksy v Bristol Museum exhibit thats been causing massive crowds and queues along Queens Road for a few weeks now. My friends Eman and Rachael joined us, and we joined the massive queue – at [...]

ShakeItPhoto

I know, I know. I’ve said many times before about how much I love Polaroids.And although many people complain about the crappyness of the camera on the iPhone, I still use it because its just so handy to be able to upload it to Twitpic or onto this blog.

Unfortunatly sometimes the pictures from the iPhone [...]
