Q&A With Richard Lewis of Octonauts Live! Plus Giveaway!
We are ever so excited about Octonauts Live coming to the stage next month and are very honoured to have an EXCLUSIVE Q&A with the director and adaptor of the show, Richard Lewis. And we even have a sneaky extra … Continue reading
Big Fish Little Fish Hackney – 21/09/14
So in a blogging fail to add to all my other blogging fails, I went to BFLF today with a thoroughly uncharged phone. So did Nathan. Net result was a complete lack of photos of this East London pirate extravaganza. … Continue reading
Christmas is Coming!
I know at least one person is going to rebuke me for even talking about Christmas, but there are Christmas chocolates on the shelves, the mornings are getting darker and -most excitingly – I’ve been asked to be an official … Continue reading

I must admit I was a bit nervous about this…my Macca-Pacca-obsessed toddler performed an abrupt about-turn sometime in March and decided she no longer liked “Night Garden” and would only watch “Sarah and Duck”. When I say “sometime in March”, … Continue reading
“A Night at the Pictures” at Wood Street Indoor Market
Walthamstow is full of surprises. There’s an evening disco for ageing indie kids, an Acoustic Massive that apparently accepts any old blogger and now there’s a haddock-slapping theatre company who want to entertain you in an old cinema. The show … Continue reading

Big Fish Little Fish in Hackney – 18/05/14
Hands in the air! It’s our third trip to Big Fish Little Fish and this time it seems to have found a natural home in a warehouse in Hackney. Why such a good fit? Well the warehouse gave it … Continue reading
