San Carlo Review
In the last couple of months I’ve been to San Carlo twice to celebrate some of my medic friends finishing finals and for a different friends 21st! So I thought I’d write a post about my experience of the restaurant! Located on Granby Street, this is one of a chain of restaurants with several […]

A Visit to Kew Gardens
This weekend to celebrate the end of my summer placement me and my family headed down to London for the weekend to visit Kew Gardens. We stayed in an Airbnb just North-East of the Chilterns, near Dunstable. It was a lovely apartment out in the countryside (quite near to Ashridge Estate which we visited on […]
Escape Reality Leicester
This weekend I had my first experience of an escape room and I loved it!! Four of us went to Escape Reality Leicester and we chose to do the Jungala room. This scenario is based on the film Jumanji; basically you play an old board game which transports you into a dangerous jungle that you […]

Celebrating the end of exams
My final exam was last Saturday morning and pretty much straight after I headed up to Carlisle with some friends to my housemates home! It was a weekend filled with walking, good food and the occasional drink! We had a really good time and it was so much fun to be out in the […]

Abbey Park Fireworks
Bonfire night is one of my favourite times of year! That’s not an exaggeration I get massively over excited about fireworks (I think the people I was with found my reactions more entertaining than the fireworks themselves) and this year I managed to get to two firework displays over the weekend! One of the […]

My first few months on club committee
The Freshers Fair is only just over and it’s the start of the year, but for anyone who is on a club committee Freshers signalled the end of the first few months being a committee member and one of the busiest times of year. I thought I’d let you all know a bit about what […]
