An evening with Charly Cox

There really isn't anything better than an evening with a close friend, laughing, drinking cocktails and consuming enough food that probably could have easily fed a family of four . 

Saturday night was one of those evenings, I spent the evening with Charly and it was wonderful.

We started the evening at Cha Cha Moon's on Ganton Street in Central London to test out a couple of their cocktails, which went down far too quickly. 

A Sunny Sunday on Southbank

Last weekend was one of the loveliest Sunday's London has seen in a fair while. 

I think us British react in a very strange way when we hear there's meant to be sunshine. The sun? You mean that glowing ball of fire that occasionally peeps out from behind the clouds and that graces us with it's warm shimmering rays from time to time?

As soon as the weather forecast announces a temperature above 12 degrees celsius we all rejoice, whip out the factor 50, dash to the supermarket to purchase every remnant of BBQ worthy food and don ourselves in scantily glad attire to bare our pasty, white skin to the outside world for the first time in 6 months. 

I honestly saw a woman two weekends back, dressed in a bright red bikini and a matching visor rubbing sun lotion into herself in Richmond Park, where it was little more than 16 degrees. 

Anyway, her lobster red bikini is not the sole thing I was planning on informing you all about today. (Unless you guys wanna talk about that kinda thing then I will totally go with it).

I wanted to tell you about my sunny adventures along on the South bank with Charly and Alexa. 

When we heard about the sunny weather, we didn't dash to the supermarket and buy BBQ food, or smother ourselves in sun lotion along with the rest of the British population. No, we decided the sunlight and the warmth would be a great day for a chat and a little walk along the South bank with film cameras. 

On Demand Massages

Ever had that little ache or pain whilst slumped at your office desk or whilst working away on a pile of essays that just doesn't seem to be reducing in size? Have you ever wished that you could just click a button and a masseuse would arrive within an hour? 

Well Urban Massage may just be your answer... It was certainly mine last week, when I decided I was fully deserving of a massage after finishing a series of essays. 

Amsterdam on Film

A little while ago my Dad gave me my Grandpa's old film camera, having not touched one since my A Level art days, I was very excited to see if I could still use one. So as I was heading off on a weekend trip to Amsterdam at the end of January I thought it would be the perfect chance to test it out. 

So here are a few of the more scenic results that I just picked up from Snappy Snaps. Enjoy! 

Hot Yoga

My mum is a qualified yoga instructor and having grown up with her taking classes in our dining room every Monday evening for the last ten years or so I've always, secretly, wanted to give it a go. 

Olympic Studios!

Olympic Studios are located on Barnes High Street, and in my opinion this is the way we should all watch films. 

Perfectly chic decor, a delicious choice of popcorn (the Salted Toffee is incredible) and sweets. And that's without mentioning the amazingly comfortable, reclining seats, or sofas if you want the full at home experience.
