“Festival of the Girl” – 05/10/24
This is our third year at the Festival and Eva’s at the top end of the age range – something I didn’t think about until I realised that one of her classmates from primary school had been promoted to helper … Continue reading
“Holst – The Planets” at the Royal Albert Hall – 21/09/24
It was Nathan’s birthday recently. I won’t say which number it was but it wasn’t a very major one…..more like a stopping point between major ones. Nevertheless, we’ve made the most of the celebrations, starting with an outdoor cinema trip … Continue reading
“An Inspector Calls” at Alexandra Palace – 04/09/24

Paris with a Teenager

Dopamine Land – 03/08/24
I seem to have a bit of a curse at the moment where I’m writing about things no one will soon be able to go to. As soon as I reviewed Fox in a Box, they announced they were closing. … Continue reading
“Kathy and Stella Solve a Murder” at Ambassadors Theatre – 17/07/24
Now, there’s no starker realisation that the toddler years are over than when you take your baby girl to see a show and she is laughing uproariously at a well-placed F-bomb in the first scene. There are many well-placed F-bombs … Continue reading
This is London…with a teenager
This is the shocking post you’ve all been waiting for. This blog turns 13 today, on 13th July and in honour of that milestone, I am renaming the blog once and for all. Welcome to….London With a Teenager The mathematically-inclined … Continue reading
