However, as the name may suggest, there’s more to this boozer than meets…

Posted on December 16, 2019January 30, 2020 by Laura

I’ve recently been asked for student budget friendly places to eat and the best lunch deals in Birmingham city centre and beyond – hopefully this post should cover both. I know how important affordable lunches are. As a young twenty-something I worked for a news agency in the middle of the city. I was paid…

Winter warmer dishes for under £10

Posted on November 16, 2019January 14, 2020 by Laura

Skipping autumn and heading head first into winter was fun, wasn’t it? No. No it wasn’t. One minute I was wearing sun dresses and enjoying beer gardens, the next I was moaning about the German Market and wearing the coat I took to Poland last January. With the temperature dropping I’ve been reassessing my food…

Where to eat and drink in central Birmingham instead of the German Market

Posted on November 8, 2019November 14, 2019 by Laura

I don’t like the Birmingham German Market anymore. Humbug, etc. Over the years I’ve come to dislike the annual tat fest, but this was cemented entirely as loathing when I moved to the city centre last year. Not to give it more publicity than it already gets, and to each their own, but I find…

Wonder Woman 1984 is two and half hours long and so far the only things I’ve really enjoyed about it are Kristen Wiig’s studded leather jacket and the fact that Adam Klaus from Jonathan Creek has a bit part. The plot is moronic, the script is crap, and it’s dull. Total garbage.

Imagine assuming you can buy a woman’s Instagram account simply because you’re a man and you want it for yourself. Astounding.

Weather report: sunny but absolutely pissing freezing. Floor is a death trap. Wish I hadn’t bothered. But look how pretty she is.
