The Mayor has recently published A City for all Londoners, his statement of intent for London over the next four years. This document outlines the key challenges and opportunities for London and how we might start to address or take advantage of those. We want to speak to a range of Londoners to find out what their needs are around these issues so that we can make sure they’re reflected in our…
My Christmas gift to myself this year is an electric guitar to play my favourite rock ballads. Call me crazy, but when I saw this Rock N Roll Stuart Minion I wanted to have it straight away. My 10 year old son Diego seems to love him too. I thought he might be too old for this singing and dancing figure but it’s so hilarious that you fall in love with him. It’s in the same size of what…

The first time I saw a book by Steve Antony was The Queen’s Hat at the National Gallery’s shop. I totally fell in love with all his picture books and sense of humour. Just read this interview with Steve to understand why I love him so much. Ah, by the way my 10 year old son Diego also loves his books. With themes ranging from the Queen to ‘saying please’ to the futility of…

The man behind this magic is Duncan Titmarsh, the UK’s only LEGO Certified Professional, who has been creating impressive LEGO installations for years.
I have met him a few times over the years and he…
Forget about Black Friday deals… They are often not authentic. London Mums magazine has a dedicated site with 60% off deals on theatre and London attractions throughout the year. This year for Christmas I will ask Santa to bring me vouchers or tickets to either a West End Show or to a nice London Attraction.
We all have houses packed with stuff we don’t need and I feel that we…
Scuba diving in London? Seriously? I love the sea and snorkelling. Time flies while watching colourful fishes passing by. I have travelled to Egypt, Mexico, Cuba and the Dominican Republic a few times to do it but I never really tried SCUBA diving because I fear my reaction in front of big fishes like sharks. I am right about it as last Summer at an Amazon party I tried the ‘diving with…
