Out and About: Packing for a City Trip
Before we jump in to my top packing tips let us start with a confession. It’s only in the last year or so that I’ve felt I’ve got holiday packing down to a fine art. Yes really. I’m clearly a late bloomer in this department as no matter what method I tried I just couldn’t… Read more »
Out and About: Travel Plans 2017
It definitely isn’t an exaggeration to say that 2016 was a pretty epic year for holidays. I experienced the joy of New York at Christmas, the magic of Disneyland Paris and the complete utter relaxation of Portugal, plus there were a few birthday days in Bruges, Brussels and Ghent. And then there were the long… Read more »
Out and About: New York at Christmas
This time last week we were in New York City having a whale of a time doing all the festive things and it was joyous! I’ve been to New York before so I assumed I knew what to expect of it at Christmas – basically everything would just be a little bit festive, right? Wrong… Read more »
Out and About: The Scottish Open Practice Day
One of my favourite parts of our recent Scotland holiday was a morning spent at Castle Stuart Golf Course watching the Pro-Am Practice Day of the Scottish Open.

Out and About: Five Tips For Paris on a Budget
Last week we spent about 30 hours in Paris and had an absolute blast! We’ve had a fairly expensive time of it recently, what with Paris and a wedding in France and then the big house move, so we didn’t want to spend a fortune whilst in Paris, although we did want to do a lot… Read more »
Out and About: The Peak District
For the past three years the youngest Evans sibling has been studying in Sheffield. This means that every October the rest of the Evans family have made the trip up to visit for birthday adventures, because any birthday must involve family. It’s the law. At least in our family anyway! In previous years we have… Read more »
