Comedy is certainly the most difficult genre to write and perform. It is easier to make people cry than laugh. I love comedy but after the end of the best sitcom of all times, Friends, I was left there wondering whether I would find another funny and yet engaging TV comedy series again. After years of watching many dramas, thrillers, crime stories, hospital and family dramas, I was longing for a…
To those who say that the world of paper books is dying off, I’d say brace yourself because this Spring more than ever the book market is over-flooded with original new picture books all with a common denominator: incredibly quirky and colourful illustrations. The up and coming authors get younger and younger and classic authors are revisited in modern adaptations.
Why do we love Picture…
I don’t know anybody (boys included) who hasn’t watched the classic Disney animated film Cinderella at least twice. The expectations for a live-action feature movie were very high and have not been disappointed.

If you feel adventurous during a half term / school holiday you can take the kids on a roadtrip to France. Without much planning we decided to go skiing and sledding for a couple of days on the Mont Blanc on the French side with a few stops along the way. It’s 1000 km one way and you can get there in 15 hours with no stops.
However with young children (Diego is 8) this is unthinkable and a…
During a Lego event held at the British Institute of British Architects (RIBA) over half term, while my son and other children from the London Mums’ Kids Club were busy creating Lego Friends inspired houses, I visited the FREE Mackintosh exhibition.
Scottish architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928) is famous for being a modernist, symbolist and an exponent of Art Nouveau.
Brace yourselves London Mums! Reese Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara are soon going to delight us in a movie filled with Girl power. I personally love Reese’s recent choices in films she is choosing to be part of (like Wild). Hot pursuit is a comedy and she is playing a strong female character but not the type of Legally Blond strong. Watch the trailer below and you will understand what I mean…
