Would you climb Mount Everest? Absolutely not, if you ask me. I hate altitude, I hate being cold and I am quite happy admiring mountains from a safe distance, preferably somewhere with a fireplace and a drink. But virtually? That is a completely different story!
I recently headed to Eclipso in Camden Town with a friend to try Everest: The First Ascent, the latest immersive VR experience taking…
There are some exhibitions you look forward to visiting once. And then there are exhibitions you already know you will want to see again and again. I have a feeling Monet: Painting Time, coming to Tate Modern from 25 February to 27 June 2027, will be firmly in the second category.
As a Tate Member and a bit of an artist myself, I was absolutely delighted to be invited to the…

Silent disco is my happy place. I know that’s a big claim, but honestly, I mean it. There’s something magical about putting on those glowing headphones and just… letting go. I’ve danced my way through a fair few unusual spots…
There are theatre evenings when you leave humming a tune, and others when you leave with something rather deeper on your mind. Holy Fool at Park Theatre in Finsbury Park belongs firmly in the second category, but thankfully, it also gives you plenty to smile along the way.
I went to see Holy Fool with a friend yesterday, and we both came out pleasantly impressed and, more importantly, deeply…

Recently, I swapped the usual London routine for something a little different and honestly, it was just what I needed. A spontaneous Friday evening trip to Topgolf Watford with friends turned into one of those unexpectedly brilliant nights that leave you wondering why you don’t do it more often.
