Bake off is back so mind your back in the kitchen with these tips from a leading chiropractor in Southend.

That’s right, the Great British Bake off is back and aren’t we all just chuffed about it.

Skin SWYPEs™Colormetric SWYPE™ systems are simple, visible skin exposure indicators. SWYPEs™ are best described as a workers’ training tool used to identify work practices that may result in skin exposure.

Skin SWYPEs™ can be used to test employees’ hands to verify that gloves are providing protection from exposure. Using moderate pressure, wipe the suspected exposed skin area (behind the ear, pencil; bridge of nose, safety glasses, etc.) with the cloth pad portion of the Skin SWYPE™. Use a separate SWYPE™ for each area to be checked. To process, add ¼" of Developing Solution to the small plastic cup provided. Place the Skin SWYPE™ in the cup with the cloth pad portion in the solution and the color detection strip up at the top. The solution will wick up, carrying any contaminant, to the detector pad. Remove the SWYPE™ from solution cup when the detector pad is saturated.

The test takes approximately 5 minutes for the color change reaction to occur. The sensitivity of the Skin SWYPE™ is 3-5 μg for aromatic amines and isocyanates.

A common sense approach is the key to the successful use of the SWYPE™ detection systems for reducing workplace exposures. The first step is to observe employee work practices. Tools, machinery controls, safety glasses or pencils that are handled with contaminated gloves, and may later be touched by bare skin, represent potential exposures. The rapid color indication of the Skin SWYPE™ helps to reinforce safe work practices and to educate workers in the prevention of skin exposures.

Skin SWYPEs™ are available for:

  • Aromatic Amines
  • Aliphatic Amines
  • Aromatic Isocyanates
  • Aliphatic Isocyanates
  • Hydrazine
  • Acid/Base
  • Phenols

Wuthering Delights…

News reaches me here, chained to my computer in the basement beneath Campbell Towers, that Classical Comics fine adaptation of Wuthering Heights by Sean M Wilson, with gorgeous painted artwork by British comics legend John Burns has been nominated for a Stan Lee Excelsior Award!

Obviously, I'd like to think that my lovingly crafted lettering played some part in this, but, let's be honest, it's an excellent adaptation of great book and my job was really just to get the words on the page and leave as much of John's artwork to shine as possible. Congratulations to all the books on the shortlist -- may the best book win!

Time to put a stop to illegal wildlife trade, says IUCN

Bangkok, Thailand, 28 February 2013 – Poaching, illegal trade and other important issues facing wildlife today will be discussed at the 16th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (CoP16) to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), taking place from 3 to 14 March 2013, in Bangkok, Thailand. IUCN, International Union for Conservation of Nature, calls for urgent measures to halt illegal wildlife trade which is pushing many species to the brink of extinction.

Governments gathering in Bangkok will discuss measures to sustainably manage the international trade in elephants, rhinos, sharks and other species such as great apes, snakes, tortoises, turtles, crocodiles, antelopes and large cats. IUCN, together with TRAFFIC International, the wildlife trade monitoring network, will provide scientific and technical information on their status, enabling Parties to the Convention to make well-informed decisions on how to sustainably manage and regulate international trade of species.

“This year’s conference comes at a critical moment: rhino poaching is at record high, illegal trade in ivory and python skins is causing increasing concern and other species are also moving closer to extinction due to unsustainable trade,” says IUCN Director General Julia Marton-Lefèvre. “Countries must step up cooperation and enforce existing laws to ensure that wildlife is used sustainably, securing healthy biodiversity and livelihoods.”

In response to growing international concern about the accelerating exploitation of the world’s marine and forest ecosystems through over-fishing and logging, participants will also debate additional measures to improve the sustainability of trade in tropical timber trees and marine species such as the iconic Humphead Wrasse (Cheilinus undulates), that is listed as Endangered on The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™.

“The CITES convention is invaluable in bringing the global community together to address trade issues and raises awareness of species whose survival is being threatened by unsustainable trade,” says Simon Stuart, Chair of IUCN’s Species Survival Commission. “In Bangkok, we need to see concrete action that will reverse the current devastating trends before they get out of control.”

This year’s conference marks the 40th anniversary of CITES. IUCN was instrumental in creating the Convention, which today has 178 Parties and is one of the world's most powerful tools for biodiversity conservation.

BI athlete of past lends memoris

Glory Days

POSTED: October 6, 2007 5:04 a.m.
As the popularity of the county’s football program grows stronger with every passing year, it’s important to take a peek in the past to gain a better appreciation of how the program began.
Sheriff J. Don Martin, who graduated from Bradwell Institute in 1957, shared his memories to shine a light on the hard-hitting days of Liberty’s football past.
In the 1950s, the Bradwell Tigers were a much different team, Martin said.
They wore old and tattered uniforms and had just a few options in their playbook. But Martin said it was the tenacity and grit of the team that helped them excel in the decades that followed.
“McIntosh County did away with football, and we got the leftovers of their uniforms,” Martin said. “There wasn’t much padding. They didn’t fit well and our practice pants doubled as our game pants.”
With every Friday kickoff at Bradwell’s old unnamed football field, there were no bleachers, and the fans stood behind a cable that separated them from the playing area, he said.
Despite the inadequacies, Martin’s eyes lit up as he peered back to his team’s one season of glory as he helped push the ball down the field on offense.
“In our last year, in 1956, we came out smoking,’ he said. “We were 6 and 1. We lost the next two games, but we almost came away with the regional championship that year after finishing 6 and 3. We only had a few plays in the book, but we could move the ball.”
Following Martin’s graduation, a coaching legend named Hokey Jackson came in 1958 from Jesup and propelled the Tigers to many winning seasons throughout the 1960s, Martin said.
When comparing Bradwell’s football past to its present, Martin said the athletes today have better weight training, coaching programs and better facilities to display their talents.
“Bradwell’s pride and camaraderie fuels game support, and the fan support has made Bradwell football what it is today. I think the kids take advantage of the programs, and I wish the best for both Bradwell and Liberty County High School for this football season,” Martin said.

Denim isn't in him...

Berwich Pants casually elegant.

Wait til I get my money right...

I always talk with friends about what I'm going to do when I start making money, but motivation without inspiration, and vice versa are simply empty thoughts if we never apply them. I had the pleasure of watching an ABC special Friday night called Get Unbroke hosted by the wonderful Melody Hobson (check her out) which offered some insightful money stacking tips in an entertaining way, check out the above example talking about the difference between stocks and bonds.

It's a funny thing we always think about how to get rich, but with time comes wisdom and eventually money. While there's nothing wrong with aspirations of being a professional athletes, or entertainers lets just make sure when we get there we manage our money right. blessings and enjoy.

Take two slices of written organized ideas, slather on some smooth and creamy conversation on side, and faith and works that bears good fruity jelly, put em together and...enjoy the sweet taste of success.

Riding in style

Quoc Pham Cycling Shoes

I have to be honest I've never really been a fan of the whole sneakers with suit look. About a year ago I was on the sartorialist and saw a gentleman with some athletic inspired sneakers which adds a totally different effect. The quality leather, subtle detailing, and narrower design, have undertones that more relatable to moccasins, or dress shoes. This cycling shoes are a perfect example of that effect, instead of having to bring two pair of shoes to the job you can simply throw these on and be fashionably comfortable throughout the day. The patent leather joints particularly caught my eye...looking at them I just keep imagining a debonair gent paired in a midnight blue dinner jacket, so some silk and cashmere tuxedo trousers paired with the patent leather shoes, on a classic ten speed headed to a cocktail party on a terrace, motivated to ride cause the evening was far too beautiful to drive.

Aight so the story goes that one of the oldest fashion houses (Lanvin) has been collaborating with Acne jeans for some upcoming projects Acne invited the Lanvin creative team to the launch party for Acne Paper's summer issue, one thing led to another and before you knew it a great concept shoot was birthed, I guess there are really no accidents when it comes to inspiration.

While I consider myself a very social person it's funny that the last few months the whole night life scene has become very mundane and contrive to me, often people acting pretentious or overly eager to be scene and stand out rather than being themselves. Yet intimate scenes like this one with beautiful friends, complimentary taste, all enveloped in beautiful scenery make for memorable occasions that inspire magnificent memories we want to capture forever much like this one...I look forward to soon making this dream a reality...stay tuned.

We should always be prepared to accommodate these guest. I suggest having sparkling grape juice on hand the taste is often just as exquisite without providing the alcoholic buzz and if kids are present they can feel like grown ups too. Here are a few suggestions that offer just as much elegance as a bottle of fine wine.

Just make sure you keep the juice away from the happy juice ;).

It's funny how the lives of others often can affect us positively or negatively. I had the distinct pleasure of seeing the success formula work. My man graduated from Morehouse College this past Sunday which is an accomplishment within itself, but what's more he graduated Summa Cum Laude "with highest honor" (direct translation: "with highest praise") maintaining a 3.8 during his matriculation. This commitment awarded him National Merit Honors, and induction into Phi Betta Kappa National Honors Fraternity.

Morehouse Alum Spike Lee was in attendance.

The Beautiful Cicely Tyson spoke.

My man got his degree

I was extremely proud of him, but was moved by his words at that we had at our Sunday dinner later that evening. He said "You all are the reason for my success. While others were out partying, I made sure that I maintained my studies, and remained focused, because I was a representation of you and therefore had and obligation to myself and you to be the best student that I could be." Well done sir. Well done.

Forget servers or having to wait to be seated, and simply slide your card to the maitre d get your key and pick your drink of choice from one of 45 minibars and seat yourself at one of the central bars or one of cozy spots on the long couch for lounging while lounging with friends. The bar is also working with network of international DJs such as Carl Craig or Pilooski to setup "bespoke" playlist for each patron to enjoy while entertaining old friends or while making new ones. With a concept this simple you would think you would have seen it before but Mini Bar is actually the first of its kind. So if you're ever in Amsterdam and you want to just lay back and relax in a chill environment this is the place to be.

Speaking of Bespoke..."Last"ing impressions.

Since we're talking about bespoke footwear I thought you would appreciate this clip of Carréducker hand crafted shoemakers and their artistic perspective to creating "last"ing impressions. Enjoy.

If the shoe fits...

As if Tom Ford does not epitomize casual luxury already, he has doesn't it again. Tom Ford will be offering a bespoke shoe amenity in his Milan and New York store. Customers can select from any one of 18 styles - from lace-ups to loafers - and an almost bewildering number of materials (14 different kinds of calf leather, not to mention suede and crocodile skin). They also have the option to add a monogram or your personal moniker inscribed inside the shoe. Measuring complete, the order hotfoots its way to Naples to begin the three-month process. But hey custom quality is always worth the price and the wait...right?

Inability to run playing a role in UNLV’s slow start to conference play

Leave a comment

Halfway through the Mountain West race, Dave Rice’s UNLV Runnin’ Rebels (17-6, 4-4) find themselves three games behind first place New Mexico with the Lobos visiting Las Vegas on Saturday night.

The question that so many have in regards to a team that was thought to be capable of accomplishing some special things this season: what’s the problem?

In conference play there have been two major problems for UNLV: they’re struggling to get out in transition, which ultimately affects their perimeter accuracy, and they aren’t too good when it comes to forcing turnovers either.

UNLV currently ranks sixth in the Mountain West in three-point percentage, as they’re connecting on just 30.4% of their shots from beyond the arc. In their 64-55 loss at Fresno State on Thursday night UNLV shot 4-of-21 from distance, and even in their wins the Rebels have struggled to hit the shot at a decent clip outside of a 7-of-15 performance in their 62-50 win over Wyoming on January 24.

UNLV has capable shooters, be it a veteran like Mike Moser or freshman guard Katin Reinhardt , but they simply aren’t finding quality looks from deep on a consistent basis. UNLV hasn’t been able to lure opponents into a faster game as noted by Taylor Bern of the Las Vegas Sun, forcing Anthony Marshall and company to find looks in the half court. And that isn’t where the Rebels are at their best.

The Rebels work on a lot of transition offense in practices. Problem is, they can’t get out and run in conference play. They scored four fast-break points against Fresno and none against Boise. Opponents send guys back to stop those exact plays, conceding a few rebounds for the opportunity to force UNLV to beat them with half-court sets.

Those are the type of plays the Rebels need to be running over and over, because even if you agree with coach Dave Rice that the Rebels couldn’t make open shots against the Bulldogs, and I kind of do, this isn’t a new problem.

The bigger problem for UNLV is on the defensive end, where they’re forcing just 10.1 turnovers per game in league play. The end result is a turnover margin of minus-3.75, by far the worst number in the Mountain West.

In a sense UNLV faces a dilemma similar to that of Illinois, although the Runnin’ Rebels have been far better defensively when it comes to the percentages. If UNLV can force more turnovers they’ll find better scoring opportunities on the offensive end.

The problem is that while UNLV knows they need to do this so do their opponents. And through eight games UNLV hasn’t exactly shown themselves capable of making the needed adjustments.

Five-star 2018 recruit Anfernee Simons could test NBA Draft process

1 Comment

Five-star Class of 2018 guard Anfernee Simons is interested in potentially entering the 2018 NBA Draft.

According to a report from Jonathan Givony of ESPN, the former Louisville commit will likely be eligible to jump to the NBA straight out of high school since he graduated high school last year while turning 19 next June. The 6-foot-4 Simons, considered the No. 16 overall prospect in the Rivals’ Class of 2018 national rankings, is playing a post-grad season at IMG Academy for 2017-18 after reclassifying as a sophomore.

If Simons opts to go pro than college basketball loses a potential star as he’s been shooting up the national rankings over the past year. Simons was committed to the Cardinals since the beginning of his junior year but he opened things up once former head coach Rick Pitino lost his job in a fallout from the FBI investigation on college basketball.

Simons started his season at the National Prep Showcase this weekend as six NBA teams sent people to watch him play, according to Givony’s report.

It’ll be fascinating to see what happens in this situation as Simons hasn’t done much with the recruiting process over the last several months. Now that NBA teams are already watching him play, Simons could follow in Thon Maker’s footsteps and turn pro right away.

LaVar Ball on Trump’s involvement in bringing son home: ‘Who?’

Sean M. Haffey/Getty Images

The war of words none of us wanted is now upon us.

LaVar Ball downplayed the impact that Donald Trump had in ensuring that his son, LiAngelo, along with two other UCLA players were released from custody and returned to the United States following a shoplifting incident on the team’s trip to China.

“Who?” the eldest Ball told ESPN on Friday night when asked about Trump’s involvement. “What was he over there for? Don’t tell me nothing. Everybody wants to make it seem like he helped me out.”

When the players arrived back in Los Angeles, and before they had a chance to speak publicly, Trump had already taken to twitter to complain about the fact that the trio had not yet thanked him. Trump happened to be in China at the same time and, in a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, he reportedly asked for his counterpart’s help in assuring an expedited legal process.

Trump got the thank you that he so desperately needed when UCLA held a press conference announcing that the three players would be suspended indefinitely, but LaVar was not going to let the President have the last word. And you can bet that Trump is not going to let this be the end of it, either, which means that two men that have risen to prominence through their willingness to say the audacious whenever the spotlight is on them will have the floor.

And unless someone has managed to change the passcode on Trump’s cellphone, you can rest assured that this will not be the end of it.

Bridges perfect from 3, No. 5 Villanova blows out Lafayette

ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Mikal Bridges set a school record by hitting all six of his 3-point shots and scored a career-high 24 points in No. 5 Villanova’s 104-57 rout of Lafayette on Friday night.

Jalen Brunson added 22 points and hit 4 of 6 3s in another dominant performance by the Wildcats (3-0), who made 16 of 30 from long range.

Three nights after setting a school record with 13 blocked shots in a blowout of Nicholls, the versatile and deep Wildcats showed another strength and overwhelmed the Leopards (0-3).

Led by Bridges’ 4 of 4 long-distance shooting, Villanova hit 11 of its first 14 3s in racing to a 39-16 lead. The Wildcats had a stretch of nine straight baskets being 3s en route to a 56-23 halftime lead.

Matt Klinewski had 16 points and six rebounds for Lafayette, which was 7 of 29 from 3-point range.

Bridges finished 9 of 10 from the field before he sat out the final 10 minutes. The junior bested his previous career-high by one point set Tuesday.

While it was a Villanova home game, it was played about 50 miles from campus at the PPL Center, home of minor league hockey’s Lehigh Valley Phantoms. It was a 20-mile drive for Lafayette, but the Wildcats sure seemed at home.

Villanova spent much of the second half going inside to score. Omari Spellman had 15 points and nine rebounds and Eric Paschall had 14 points and eight boards.

Lafayette: Try as a Patriot League school squaring off against one of the best teams in the nation and watching the opponent shoot like that, Chicago Cubs manager Joe Maddon’s alma mater never had a chance.

Villanova: The Wildcats have perimeter shooting, depth inside and play good defense. They’ve been dominant against inferior competition, and will finally get tested next week.

Bridges surpassed Doug West in 1988 and John Celestand in 1999, each of whom went 5 of 5 from long range. Villanova finished one shy of the school record of 17 3s set against Lehigh on Nov. 27, 2005.

Lafayette coach Fran O’Hanlon fell to 0-6 against his alma mater. O’Hanlon still holds the Villanova record for assists in a game with 16 set against Toledo on Feb. 24, 1970.

Only six Division I coaches have been at their schools longer than O’Hanlon, in his 23rd season.

Lafayette visits Princeton on Wednesday.

Villanova faces Western Kentucky on Wednesday in the first of three games at the Battle 4 Atlantis in the Bahamas. No. 19 Purdue and No. 3 Arizona are possible opponents the following two days.

Mykhailiuk helps No. 4 Kansas rout South Dakota State, 98-64

Leave a comment

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Svi Mykhailiuk scored a career-high 27 points, Lagerald Vick finished with 22 and fourth-ranked Kansas routed Summit League favorite South Dakota State 98-64 on Friday night.

Udoka Azubuike added 17 points and Malik Newman had 13 for the Jayhawks (3-0), who shot 60 percent from the field and didn’t commit a turnover until midway through the second half.

By that point, the Jackrabbits (3-1) were staring at a 30-point deficit.

Mike Daum led South Dakota State with 21 points and 11 rebounds. Tevin King contributed 12 points and David Jenkins Jr. scored 10 off the bench.

Once again without heralded freshman Billy Preston, the Jayhawks were forced to use the same reduced rotation that managed to top seventh-ranked Kentucky on Tuesday night. But their perilous lack of depth became crippling in the first half when Azubuike and Mitch Lightfoot picked up two fouls each.

That forced coach Bill Self to use walk-on Clay Young in the post.

The 6-foot-5 senior turned out to be a bright spot, too, keeping the ball moving on offense and handling the 6-9 Daum inside. The Jackrabbits’ leading scorer at more than 21 points per game had eight on 2-for-8 shooting in the first half, when Young spent a good chunk of time covering him.

Nobody could cover Mykhailiuk, though.

The senior from the Ukraine hit his first three shots — the Jayhawks made eight of their first nine — while getting into an easy rhythm. Even on the seemingly rare occasion that his jumper didn’t splash the net, it often rattled around the rim and dropped through to a thunderous ovation.

Several of his baskets came on feeds from Devonte Graham, who didn’t hit a field goal until deep in the second half. He finished with eight points but also had 11 assists and five boards.

Preston went through early warmups but remained on the bench as Kansas investigates an on-campus incident that raised questions about the “financial picture” of the car he was driving. Self declined to discuss the situation other than to say “we’re definitely going to hold him out until we get to the bottom of this.” Self did say he expects a resolution soon.

South Dakota State can recover from its thumping in paradise with a trip to the Cayman Islands Classic up next. But their next trip to the Sunflower State figures to be just as tough: They visit No. 6 Wichita State on Dec. 5.

Kansas cruised despite a shortened lineup again, and help is only a month away. Arizona State transfer Sam Cunliffe becomes eligible for a trip to Nebraska on Dec. 16, and there is a chance five-star prospect Silvio De Sousa from Florida’s IMG Academy enrolls at the semester break.

South Dakota State plays Wyoming on Monday in George Town, Cayman Islands.

Kansas continues a four-game home stand against Texas Southern on Tuesday night.

No. 18 Louisville hangs on over Omaha 87-78

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Ray Spalding had a career-high 19 points and 11 rebounds, Deng Adel had a game-high 21 points and Anas Mahmoud had eight of his team’s 15 blocked shots as No. 18 Louisville outlasted Omaha 87-78 on Friday night.

Spalding scored 14 points after halftime, and Adel made 7 of 8 shots from both the field and the free-throw line to pace the offense for the Cardinals (2-0), who led by 20 early in the second half but didn’t make a field for the last 4:36 of the game.

Omaha (0-4) was competitive in facing its highest-ranked opponent since becoming an NCAA Division I program in the 2011-12 season. The Mavericks hung around with a 12-0 second-half run and got within 71-64 on KJ Robinson’s 3-pointer with 5:45 left, but Louisville answered with seven straight points to keep the lead large enough to stay unbeaten under interim coach David Padgett.

Louisville’s three primary big men — Spalding (6-foot-10), Mahmoud (7-0) and Malik Williams (6-11) — bothered Omaha with their length around the rim. Mahmoud flirted with a triple-double, posting 10 points and eight rebounds to go with his blocks. Williams, a former five-star recruit who made his first career start in place of Mahmoud, had eight points, four rebounds and three blocks. Spalding blocked three shots, too.

Daniel Norl led five Omaha scorers in double figures with 16 points and eight rebounds.

Omaha: The Mavericks averaged 83.9 points in their first three games but dug a hole in the first half when they shot only 24.4 percent to go down 40-25 at halftime. Louisville finished the first half on an 18-7 run, and Omaha made only one of its final nine shots before the break.

Louisville: Adel, who scored 20 points in the season-opening win over George Mason, continues to impress with his slicing drives and up-tempo play and shapes up as one of the top wings in the Atlantic Coast Conference. He made his first seven shots and added eight rebounds.

Omaha plays at TCU on Monday as part of the Emerald Coast Classic, the fourth of seven straight games away from home to start the season while the Mavericks’ home arena hosts the U.S. Olympic Curling Trials.

Louisville has home games against Southern Illinois on Tuesday and Saint Francis next Friday before traveling to Purdue on Nov. 28 for the Big 10/ACC Challenge.

New ‘Office Christmas Party’ Trailer Ups the Ante on Holiday Shenanigans

     November 3, 2016

In Office Christmas Party, Jennifer Aniston wants to cancel Christmas — or at least, cancel the yearly office party, along with everyone’s jobs. There are a few things about the movie that give us hope: a fantastic cast and some aspirationally insane party antics (it’s not a surprise that the movie is based off of a story from Hangover co-writer Jon Lucas). T.J. Miller and Kate McKinnon are going to very assuredly be delightful, with Aniston and Jason Bateman playing their foils as the straight men (or in Aniston’s case, the meany boss).

What gives us some pause, though, is the familiar feeling the cameo-stuffed trailer gives of movies like Valentine’s Day and New Year’s Eve, even Movie 43. Just because you throw a ton of celebrities together in a movie and have some slow-mo shots and raunchy antics doesn’t mean it’s going to equal a hit. On the other hand, there’s Jillian Bell and Courtney B. Vance. I am cautiously optimistic.

Check out the new trailer below:

The new trailer gives a little more context into how the party comes to be, and what it could mean for the beleaguered branch of the company (I also like Aniston and Miller playing siblings, as entirely unlikely as it is). But it also adds those hinky elements of: Will a Christmas miracle take place and save everybody’s jobs? Will Aniston’s uptight corporate manager learn to loosen up and just give in to the love? This is where the movie loses me … but we’ll see.

Office Christmas Party also stars Vanessa Bayer, Olivia Munn, Rob CorddryJamie Chung, Randall Park and Karan Soni, and is set to premiere in early December.

Here’s the official synopsis for Office Christmas Party, along with some newly released posters:

In OFFICE CHRISTMAS PARTY, when the CEO tries to close her hard-partying brother’s branch, he and his Chief Technical Officer must rally their co-workers and host an epic office Christmas party in an effort to impress a potential client and close a sale that will save their jobs.

Paul Bettany Teases Post-AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Plans for The Vision

     January 28, 2015

When you sign on for a Marvel movie, it’s pretty much a given that you’re signing on for more than one film and, sure enough, it seems as though that will be the case for Paul Bettany as The Vision.  While promoting his latest release, Mortdecai, Bettany discussed the possibility of bringing The Vision to additional Marvel movies beyond Avengers: Age of Ultron with  Here’s what he told the outlet (via CBM):

“That’s the really great thing about the Marvel gig for me.  I have never known if I have had a job six months out ever in my life.  And now I know that they have plans and I can be even more judicious about the stuff that I do outside of that work.  I can wait for the right thing and feel really attached to it.”

paul-bettany-transcendenceMarvel’s the king of multi-picture contracts, so it’s no surprise that “they have plans” and Bettany’s busy enjoying some serious job security, but the question is, what’s to come for The Vision?  Based on the source material and that action figure description that popped up back in December, it seems like the obvious path for the character is to make a big entrance in Age of Ultron and then perhaps move on to Infinity War – Part 1 and Infinity War – Part 2 as a full-blown Avenger.

No matter how it plays out, it sounds like Bettany is ready for it.  Even though he hadn’t seen a single MCU film prior to scoring the role, since then, he’s studied up big time.

“I did a lot of research — and my research was watching all of the films.  I realised they are so interlinked and I wanted to understand the universe I was in.  So I did and it was a really amazing, fun experience — especially going from my tiny, 20-day movie with no money and no trailers to this behemoth film was just great.”

Even though I’m dying to see what Bettany does with The Vision, I’m also hoping Marvel continues the trend and does their best to keep the character top secret until Avengers: Age of Ultron hits theaters on May 1, 2015.  Wouldn’t it be nice to get to see a new key character in action for the very first time in the final cut of a film for a change?

What Would Jesus Vote?

Both US and NZ elections are happening very soon. I am very cynical about believers believing that you have to be a Republican to be a true believer (US) or vote National (NZ) because "Labour has brought in anti-christian legislation in the last 3 years." None of the parties in NZ have convinced me yet to vote for them.

The following 2 posts make interesting reading and resonate with me:

Ethics times four
by Paul Windsor and
Tapu Misa: Dangers of playing the God card
in today's NZ herald which says "...most Americans who responded to a Zogby International poll, saw poverty and greed as the most urgent moral crises in American culture - more than twice as many as chose abortion and same-sex marriage."
Somewhere along the line we have forgotten that Jesus had more to say about money than sex. Perhaps economics is a moral issue after all.

I found the debate last week between Helen Clark & John Key very interesting. Apart from issues of ecological sustainability (that really weren't explained very well and we were left wondering what it all means and where the 2 parties differ), most of the other questions were all about ME ie. who will tax me less, make my life more comfortable and safer. Sure, we are in a global recession, but we are still far better off than most of the world, eg. 18% struggle to live on less than US$1 a day.

I have yet to see a party come out and say how we will be "world leaders" in helping with this imbalance. I would like to know what party will do something about our commitment to the UN millenium development goals. In particular overseas aid. Micah Challenge says: "NZ has promised to give at least 0.7% of our gross national income to fight poverty worldwide. At the moment we’re barely giving half of that and are one of the meanest countries in the OECD."

To me that is more important than which parties have more MPs who voted for the anti-smacking or civil unions legislation.

I have no idea what Jesus would vote and I think it would be arrogance to think that I could work that out, but I do know that issues of justice are important to God. How are you deciding who to vote for?

It's official guys! Natalie and I are heading to London next month! Tickets are booked! I've been dying to go to Europe since I was just a little kid, and I think that London is the perfect place to kick start my dream into action. I really know nothing about London, other than what I remember from history class and these first things that come to mind:  Alexa Chung, rock and roll and punk music, Austin Powers, fish and chips, the loo, John Lennon, and Prince William. haha. But I want to know more! I would love to get some tips and info on the cool places to see (both touristy and non-touristy) and the things Nat and I just have to do no matter what. Places to shop, eat, dance, hear music, people watch, etc. We are also looking to do a two day trip to Paris, so any French recommendations would be greatly taken! As well as some info on the fastest and cheapest way to get there from London! We also need some info on good areas for us to stay in London that is in a location that is convenient for us to get around to lots of different parts of the city and even the outskirts. I also hear that Wales is a beautiful place we must check out with our own eyes.

You have no idea how excited I am about this trip. A fresh change of environment is just what I need right about now. I want to relax, enjoy myself, learn, discover, and be inspired with curious of eyes and mindset! Having my ticket makes this finally all feel set in stone and I am relieved to know this is happening for sure. Now I just need to do as much London research as I can without stressing myself out. So any recommendations and tips would be appreciated!

this is so great! have fun :)

le monde de skadiida said...

good choice to visit London first. I love London and there are so many things i can recommend you. first of all a hotel in the area around the kings cross/ st. pancras would be good because there you have good connections to all over london and i think there are also some nice cheap hotels. but be careful hotels in london can be horrible...i've heard many bad stories ^^ and then i would say you should do a sightseeing bus tour because it's good to get an overview of london and you get to know all the typical places like big ben, buckingham palace,... and there are also walking tours included ie a beatles walk, harry potter walk,... of course you shouldn't miss camden. during day you can go shopping in the stalls where you find everything from vintage, to band tshirts, cds,.... it's just nice to walk through and also the stables market...it's so nice in there and you feel like in the past. on sunday you should visit the brick lane because its a hot spot for all the stylish people and there are many streetstyle photographer and when you want party at midday its the right place. well what else...when you have a rainy day you can go to the shopping mall westfield stratford. its next to the main olympia stadium and its huge. there are hundreds of nice shops ie urban outfitters, top shop, forever 21,.... and when you are hungry go to nandos. it's cheap and delicious and you can find it all over london. (: a bike tour trough a park could also be nice and when you want to have a nice view over london i can recomment you the primerose hill next to camden. there are so many beautiful areas...i could continue for hours. (: i have some posts on my blog with pictures of london and i also recommend some places...(no thats not an advert...i just want to help you ;) ) and when you have a question or need a guide when you are in london just contact me (:

btw i forgot portobello road on a saturday ;) and camden is also good for going out

Ivanna said...

awesome. x

Sam said...

I love London! I'll be going this weekend, only for me it's only a flying trip from 45 minutes.
Anyhow, Camden Market is fantatic. They have so many cute and vintage shops. Plus the food there is so good! You can find all kinds of food there. Carnaby street is also nice for the more brands like G-star, Fornarina, Levi's and things like that.
Harrods is always nice, even if it's to look at pretty things, cause it's so damn expensive. I found a nice hat there once, but it was 750(!!) pounds, so it stayed in Harrods, haha.
The hotel I went to was called the Byron Hotel. Next to Hyde Park and a subway. Plus the street next to it, had cute little restaurants and supermarkets that weren't expensive, but affordable. Just like the hotel. The rooms aren't big, but it's clean and the location is perfect.
I can't really help you furthermore, since all the other things are the well known tourist places. So I really think Le Monde de Skadiida can help you out!

VιcκyBeL said...

oh you are so lucky!I love London!It is really amazing and espexcially for people that looking for vintage clothes,so I think that you gonna like it!!
check my super new fashion blog if you want,I would love to know your opinion!

Stamina said...

I can undrestand all you excitement! I'm planning a trip to west Europe this December and I feel excactly the same (apart from the fact that I'm a Europian already! hehe)

Katie said...

AH LDN is amazing! You have to go to Camden market, Portabello road, check out all the vintage shops and jewellery. You could always get the Eurostar from Paris/to Paris and then wherever you stay (hotels can be a bit iffy there) you can get the tube basically anywhere. If you want to go further afield stay near Kings Cross or one of the other stations, but again you can always just get the tube there. AH and you have to go to the giant Topshop on Oxford Street, you can get lost in there. All the main UK shops are down there, and its near where all the posh designer shops are that I like to look at the window displays :P. You can go to Hyde Park too, it's lovely to sit and eat, and the zoo is great too! Also all the typical tourist things: Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Tate Modern - I normally walk a loop round them all but it's kinda long. Can I come too?? I'll be your totally un-knowledgable tour guide :P

Linda Famularcano said...

Awesome! I love London! Always has so many things to do - I have been 3 times and still have so many things to see...

Firstly: Shopping on Oxford Street, Regent Street, Bond Street, Portobello Road, Canary Wharf and Westfields Shopping Centre...

Secondly: Sight-Seeing at London Eye, London Aquarium, London Zoo at Regent's Park, Buckingham Palace, Green Park, London Dungeons, China Town...

Thirdly: Theatre - I have only seen The Lion King and Wicked but both were AMAZING!

Fourthly: Night Life - So many clubs that I can't even remember all of them! All were good and happy hour provided a ridiculous amount of cocktails for just £1 each!

Fifthly: Best way to get to Paris is the Eurostar train - I haven't been there myself but it's my plan when I do!

I'm sure there's a gazillion places and things to do that I've missed but these were my favourites (^_^) x

YAYYY!!!! So exciting!!!! I went to London twice in the past year and LOVED it. I already want to go back! I also went to Paris for a day.... here are some of my tips, if you have questions about anything feel free to email me :)

1. Get an Oyster Card, it's for the tube and makes it so much easier to get around. Also, with the card you have a max amount to pay each day, if you didn't have the card you could waste a lot of money on tube fare. https://oyster.tfl.gov.uk/

2. Get a Travelex card to use as a credit card, makes it easier so you don't have to carry a ton of cash. It works just like a credit card, you can reload it or take the money back out when you leave. http://www.travelex.com/

3. When I went to Paris I traveled via the Eurostar, it was a 3 hour ride and we left London at 5am. http://www.eurostar.com/dynamic/_SvBoExpressBookingTerm?_TMS=1345583386884&_DLG=SvBoExpressBookingTerm&_LANG=UK&_AGENCY=ESTAR&country=BR&lang=UK&VT=EB

4. You HAVE to go to Pizza Express and get the dough balls, SO delish! :)

5. High Tea at the Ritz is also really fun, and the Mad Hatter Tea at the Sanderson Hotel. And another tea is Bake-a-Boo.

6. Abbey Road, obviously ;)

7. If you have time and like Harry Potter you have to go to the Warner Bros. Studio Tour at Leavesden, it's the actual sets they used and it's amazing! :)

I have tons of posts on my adventues on my blog:

how amazing!

laura fox gill said...

Can't say I know Wales very well, and I tend to only go to London to go to galleries, BUT I live in Brighton which is on the south coast, about an hour on the train from London and it's great (the 'gay capital of the UK' but also the 'hippy capital of the UK' since we were the first to elect a Green party MP) so if its sunny you should definitely head down here to check out the beach/vintage shops/vegetarian restaurants. You can also pop up to Scotland! There's a pretty speedy train from London to Edinburgh, and then if you hop over Glasgow for cheap booze and a great art scene.

You'll have a great time! x

London is amazing, for me is the best part of the World, I mean I'm in love with that city! Some weeks ago, I did a post about London you can search it and tell If you like it! Nice blog dear!!

monkeyshines ♥ said...

beautiful captures!

Z said...

Oxford street is all very well, but I agree, you should go to Camden - it has a great market, amazing vintage and second hand shops. Go to East London - Liverpool Street, Brick Lane and for god's sake, go to Spitalfields Market!
One New Change shopping centre in St Paul's great and has a fantastic bar on the roof with the best view of all of London. And Big Chill Bar in Kings Cross if you like reggae or chilled out music.
London is amazing you'll have a great time. Feel free to let me know if you want a tour around Camden! (It's where I live).

and i suggest Camden town, for sure

KT said...

I haven't been to London in several years, but I always had good luck finding affordable places to stay in Bayswater and Earl's Court. You can get a basic and clean room with bathroom, tv and breakfast for only a bit more than a hostel (at least you could back in the day). Definitely make sure to check out Camden Town and pick up a Time Out to find out all that's going on. if you're into art the Tate Modern is a must. What else ... Portobello Road for a huge antiques market. For film check out the Aubin Cinema for cool indie film events.

You absolutely will have the time of your live! I love London so much. You will have fun for sure :)

Emma said...

I studied abroad in London and I have never loved a city more. The #1 thing you absolutely have to make time for is the Camden Market (the REAL one, The Stables, there is a fake one along the way). It is amazing and I think would totally be up your girls' alley, it is probably my favorite place to get lost in for hours! :) Drink lots of Pimm's and lemonade, go to the grocery store and get Crunchies and Digestives, eat a pasty, and order a cider and black at the pub. If you have time, take a boat to Greenwich (the ride is awesome, you'll go under all the famous bridges) and stand on both sides of the Prime Meridian, it only takes like half a day to go and see everything and get back to London. The British Museum is the best if you only have time for one, and the London Eye is worth the wait in line, the view is amazing. Leicester Square is overrated (especially if dance clubs aren't your thing), go to Soho for the Irish pubs and gay bars, they're 100x more fun. I could go on forever, I miss London every day!

True said...

Ohhh have fun in London! Its definately an awesome city and a place to visit! Its so big! Visit Oxford Street! Place to be for shopaholics! X

London is without a doubt the best "Big City" in the world! Massive statement, I know, but it's the perfect mixture of history, culture and modernity that I don't think the likes of Paris and New York can match - that said, I love Paris and New York too!
My main tip as a Londoner is:
- Avoid Oxford Street. In fact, avoid anywhere remotely "tourist-y" i.e Buckingham Palace, The Houses of Parliament. Focus, firstly, on visiting the kind of places you like to go to in Philly, for example - so if you like vintage and thifting, go to Camden Market, Dalston and Portobello Market. Then on your last few days, you can brave the perils of Oxford Street and co.
- Enjoy the wealth of art and culture London has to offer. Visit as many museums as you can e.g. The Tate, The Tate Modern, The V&A, The Saatchi Gallery etc.
- Go to the theatre at least once if you can - you will not regret it.
- Go to Angel, Islington. There is a lovely mixture of big brands and smaller independent shops in Angel. And on a summery day, it's such a lovely place to have a stroll. Check out the retro ice cream palour - the name of which I have forgotten!
- Go to Hampstead Heath. Spend a lazy day, picnicking on the Heath, or any other heath/park that takes your fancy e.g. Regents Park, Highbury Fields, Richmond Park.
- Have High Tea. This is a real treat - even for a Londoner! There are so many tea rooms dotted around the city e.g. The Tea Rooms, in Stoke Newington.
- Most of all - have fun!

Best Wishes,

U and Nat are SO gonna love London!!! If the Electric Ballroom is still open for business in Camden, I found it an excelent night club for a friday and a saturday night. Actually, nightlife in Camden is cool, and also the sunday morning market there.But whatever else u do, be sure to check out Portobello saturday morning. I once bought a satin and lace vintage dress from the 50's there for 5£. This is actually real, and the dress was amazing an in mint condition. ANd there was the niceste french bistro there. Oh, and be sure to check if The Mousetrap is still going and go see it at the theatre, totally worth it even if you're not into Agatha Christie. Then there's the Sherlock Holmes Museum and Madam Tussaud's, a must do too!! Can't wait to know what your thoughts and impressions on London are!!!

I love London and have set my heart on going to Uni there, when ever I go up it's mainly for the art galliers, my favirote is the V&A for the costumes there.
You should also try and do an open top bus tour whilst you're over here a great way to see many of the sights and learn a bit about the history of London,

Have a great time!!!

Ash Louise said...

You two MUST hit up Camden Town.. I think it will melt both your hearts out! Really cool stuff to see and buy and neat people to take photos of :)
Also, all the national museums in London are free! If you go the history museum you'll be able to see lots of cool stuff, including stuff from the Beatles and other london bands!
TRY FISH AND CHIPS! Must eat lots of that when you're there too. London is awesome, you'll see so many wonderful things just walking around.

Hey Dylana, so I live in London and have been reading yours and your sister's  blogs for nearly a year now. Hopefully I can give you a few ideas on things to see and do...

Firstly, as someone else said, get yourself an Oyster card. It makes for the cheapest way to travel around the city. You can buy credit at the station and you can use it on the tubes and buses too.  Having said that do try walking places. Get yourself a good map. You'd be surprised how quickly you can walk around central parts of London. I.e from Oxford Street to Covent Garden is much quicker to walk than getting tubes in my opinion.

Places to stay...I'd go for anywhere within walking distance of a tube station. Zone 1 (central area of the underground map) will be expensive and not good value for money. But I guess that depends on your budget. Perhaps look for somewhere in zone 2.

Things to do...obviously you should check out the main tourist destinations such as Buckingham Palace, St Stephen's Tower (Big Ben), Houses of Parliament, The London Eye. There is also a new cable car open which will take you from the Royal Docks in East London across the Thames River to North Greenwich, where you could take a walk over to Greenwich park and up to the observatory where you get amazing panoramic views of the city and docklands.  Another great view but from the north this time would be from Primrose Hill (where all the celebrities live!) Also heck out Borough Market near to London Bridge and the Tate Modern Gallery. Open on a Thursday and Saturday for amazing food. The Southbank area  is pretty cool too.........

Boitedechocolat said...

So moving on to night life.  How about booking tickets for a gig. London has an awesome music scene, so many great venues. My favourites being Camden Roundhouse, Brixton academy, Kentish Town (HMV) Forum and Koko.  You would be best trying for tickets in advance. Gigs sell out very quickly in London.

Try an English pub. There is a chain of pubs run by a brewery called Samuel Smith's. They have pubs around the West End. My favourite being The Fitzroy Tavern On Charlotte St. Samuel Smiths serve their own beer so it is a very cheap pint right in the centre of London. A rare find!

For something a little different I would head East to the area of Spitalfields (there is a great market here) a cool diner style restaurant/bar opposite Liverpool Street Station called 'The Breakfast Club' they do diner style food. Great for a lazy brunch or for cocktails in the evening. Tell the waiter/waitress you are here to see the Mayor and they may grant you access through the Smeg Fridge door to a small secret cocktail bar call 'The Mayor of Scardey Cat Town' but shhhh. I didn't tell you ok?

Close by are the areas of Shoreditch, Hoxton and Brick Lane for lots of street art and galleries. It's a very trendy (I hate that word) area where all the hipsters hang out. Head over to Hoxton Square. There is a great little cocktail bar called Happiness Forgets. Amazing cocktails and great service from this place. Take a walk along Shoreditch High Street. There are loads of bars and cafés and vintage shops too.

Also Brick Lane where there is a big Bangladeshi community here. LOADS of great curry houses. Alternatively head to the top of Brick Lane (Redchurch Street end) and you will find two famous Bagel shops. They are both open 24hours so are great if you want something to eat at the end of a long night partying in the East End.

Also as lots of your readers have said visit Camden. It is an area to the north. It has the canal running through it. Again a great market and a tonne of cool bars and restaurants.

Regarding Paris, all you need to do is book a Euro Star ticket and you can get from St Pancras to Paris In under 3 hours. But make sure you book in advance to get the best price (around £69)

So there are a few suggestions for things to do and see in London.  I am slightly biased as I live in East London but I get the feeling you and your sister will enjoy it here.

If you have any questions tweet me @B0ITEDECH0C0LAT

Enjoy your trip Ladies, I might see you around!

Have an amazing trip in London! I go quite often to visit family and absolutely love the city and it is such a great place to be and not too dissimilar to NYC, I suppose.

The easiest way to get to Paris from London would be via the Eurostar from St. Pancras Station. It's way quicker and easier than getting a plane, so I would definitely recommend that.

I would also recommend checking out all the amazing markets which are situated conveniently in London. Portobello Market is my absolute FAVOURITE. Take the tube to Ladbroke Grove and it's just a short walk to all the outdoor clothes stalls and food stalls on Portobello Road. Other great ones are Spitalfields Market and stalls at Camden Lock. You'll find loads of great stuff there.

Other shopping spots: Oxford Street! So so so so so many shops on this street (it's a little bit like Michigan Avenue in Chicago) and it is so great for shopping, but so busy! Furthermore, check out Covent Garden. This is possibly my favourite place in London and a place filled with shops, little boutiques, coffee shops, cafes, restaurants and loads of street performers! There is such a great atmosphere here! Brick Lane is a super cool place to shop and look around too. And the high end Harrods and Liberty's are both nice to look around in (and drool over all the amazing stuff in there...)

For getting around, make sure you get an Oyster Card which can be used on the tube and bus. And get a little Tube map to carry around with you!

The Tate Modern is free and a great place to soak up some contemporary art. I'm not sure, but I think there is a Damien Hirst exhibit up at the moment and might still be there when you visit next month. All info can be obtained from the website though. Also the V&A Museum, Science Museum and the British Museum are all great.

If you like John Lennon, then Abbey Road is a definite must. Also, you could maybe go up to Liverpool by train and visit the Beatles' hometown, as well as see the famous Albert docks. Other cities to visit in the U.K. that I would recommend would be Oxford. Great countryside and only about an hour away from London. So much history and fantastic buildings. Brighton has its very own British seaside / beach which can be nice on a sunny day. And Manchester and Birmingham and the other two main cities in the UK and also quite nice to visit.

All of the usual tourist traps are definitely recommended: Buckingham Palace, 10 Downing Street, the London Eye, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square, Big Ben, London Bridge, Houses of Parliament, Hyde Park, the South Bank and the River Thames. They'll be busy, but a nice slice of the UK to look back on and remember.

Also try going to some nice areas like West Hampstead where there are amazing charity shops to peruse in. Other nice little parts of London include Chelsea, Highgate, Kensington, Primrose Hill, Notting Hill, whilst there are trendier parts like Shoreditch and Kentish Town.

As for food, a nice little English pub would be great to have Sunday lunch in. Fish and chips is, of course, a requisite! Also try out Gourmet Burger Kitchen or maybe Cote Brasserie, both are great places to eat. For authentic Chinese food, you definitely have to go to London's Chinatown. Great food for amazing prices. There are lots of Japanese and Korean restaurants too. London is amazing for going out to eat a wide variety of different cuisines. And last but not least, high tea at Claridge's is at the very top of most people's wish lists. Although it's expensive... If you're in London, you may as well experience it properly! :-D

That's all I can think of now haha... But have an amazing time in London & the UK!!!

Two days is so short for Paris! If you have time, go to the Marais (around metro station St. Paul) for some great vintage stores and shopping in general! There also happens to be a famous falafel place in the area (L'As du Falafel).

Lucy said...

Hiii, are you going to be there during LFW?? Because we are and we would be so glad to be able to meet up with you and Nat!!

Penny Lane said...

I love London.

You must go to Covent Garden, China Town. And you hace to eat in ITSU, is an oriental restaurant, the sushi is the best. There is one near Picadilly Circus, you can buy sush and eat it sitting in Picadilly, is an experience that you never forget.

See you.

Natalie Hughes said...

Yay! You're coming to London!

My recommendations...

Portobello Market
Bluebird Shop & cafe on Kings Road
Paperdress Vintage on Curtain Road
Have a wander down Ledbury Road in Notting Hill for some great boutiques
Brick Lane for the market and vintage shopping

La Bodega Negra - great Mexican food
Andrew Edmunds on Lexington Street - my favourite restaurant in London
Casita bar on Ravey Street in Shoreditch - tiny but amazing cocktails!
Meat Liquor
Bubbledog - not opened yet but probably will be open by the time you get here. It's basically hotdogs and champagne!
Shrimpys - great pop-up
Claridges bar for something more decadent

The Box
Le Salon
Jukebox (opening soon)

I have SO many more recommendations that I can't think of right now...

Beatrice Balaj said...

Ahh Dy!
I am so jealous!!
You're going to have SO much fun.
The shopping there is amazing and nightlife is awesome. There's a bar on almost every block. Have fun and be safe love!

Randi said...

You will love London! I was just there this April. I stayed in the West End which is very centrally located, at the Strand Palace Hotel which is nice but won't break the bank. Plus it's across from the legendary Savoy hotel which you must go to for the best cocktails. You can walk from there to most of the big landmarks, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, etc. I highly recommend visiting Abbey road (a short ride on the Underground) and the British Museum. The London Eye is also worth checking out. Portobello road is amazing for unique, vintage finds. Nothing will make you feel more like one of the locals than stopping into one of the many pubs in the evening. All of the locals go for a pint after work and spill out into the streets. Also you MUST take the Eurostar to Paris. Even if you only have a day or two. IT IS SO WORTH IT. There is a ton of Paris photos on my blog. You are going to have an amazing time! I never got around to posting my London photos. I will have to do that!

Felicia Tan said...

awesome xxx
if you like markets, there are so many good ones around, i'd recommend camden market, borough, and shoreditch!
u obviously will be going round oxford circus which is really central and accessible by foot to most places around central london e.g. trafalgar sq, picadilly circus, leicester etc. big shopping malls would be westfields in white city or stratford! and plenty of museums especially around south kensington x
i doubt you will run out of things to do!
london is AWESOME, i love living here n it's the best place i've lived in so far xxx

Eva said...

I would definitely recommend the west end musicals, and going to the south bank. They have lots of art galleries and street entertainment there. Oh and covent garden :) Camden market's great and obviously al the typical sights like buckingham palace and the london eye:) Tower of londons nice too! And dont miss shopping on oxford street!! Hope you have a great time :)

baileyblush said...

I live in London and agree with loads of the comments and tips people have already left (esp boitdechocolat_!

Oyster Card is a must, stay somewhere near a tube station in zone 1/2. I'm not so good on hotels since I live here, so I can't really help too much.

I agree on Portobello Market (Saturdays), The Stables Market at Camden and Spitalfields (Thursdays).

I would highly recommend that you wander through St James Park, have a look at Buckingham Palace, out of the park towards Westminster Cathedral (where Kate and Wills got married), past Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament and then along the river. Cross to the south bank and walk East: it is a great walk, with the Southbank Centre and Tate Modern art gallery and the globe theatre are all along there and some nice bars and restaurants.You get amazing views all along the way of St Pauls Cathedral and the city skyline as a whole (cafe of tate on 7th floor is good for this too). When am in that area I always think, wow, I really live in London and it is AMAZING!

I also recommend soho for drinks and food (The Arts Theatre Club was a great night for fun cocktails (some came in teapots prohibition style when I was there but the other ones tasted better).

I also think you would love Shoreditch in trendy East London, were there are lots of cool art galleries, nice bars and good food and coffee places!

LIISA said...

Ooooh, London is amazing! People are awsome and buildings are beautiful :) London's street style is great, so that's something you MUST check out!

Andrea Antoniou said...

Try get a hotel at kings cross/st pancras as the train station is massive and has the most lines so you be able to go anywhere from there, plus i find kings cross to be quite nice haha :) One place i deff recomend going is Camden, you get the best clothes there! I'd love to show you around there if you fancy going :) email me - andrea.ria.antoniou@gmail.com :)

a. said...

How exciting! I loved London so you will love it as well.
I'd say the top things to see (aside from the obvious) is the graffiti down brick lane - amazing - petticoat lane market, chock full of brilliant cheap clothes, the seven dials - which is the quirky collection of streets with boutiques and the like but also Neal's Yard which is this super colourful courtyard attacked to the seven dials.
The easiest way to get between the two is probably the train, but catch a super early one because it's cheaper.
Hope that helps!

Chris SA said...

London's great city to explore on foot! There's just so much great places to see it's hard to know which ones are not to miss.

Piia said...

So cool that you're going to London! I went there on a school trip many years ago and even though we spent too much time at museums, I still loved it so so much! I really recommend you go to the National Gallery. It's the perfect art museum, full of gorgeous (and famous) pieces and it's free!!
As for accommodation, we stayed at the Baden Powell House hostel, which was really great for students and situated right next to Hyde park!
Hope I was helpful :)

London is amazing-make sure to go on the London Eye! Have a blast!

xiyin. said...

enjoy your trip to london! i absolutely love living in this city :) one of my favourite things about it is the amazing food. i've seen some people have recommended places like nandos and pizza express which are really nice but in my opinion you can find better, cheaper and more unique food elsewhere. i recommend heading to chinatown in soho, in particular the little japanese place 'misato' which is cheap and delicious! you'll have to look carefully though, it's easy to miss! check out the curry houses in brick lane if you're going to spitalfields/brick lane market. finally my favourite place to eat in london would definitely have to be brixton village in south london. it's amazing! it sprawls behind the main road and it houses tons and tons of little, cheap restaurants with food from all over the world and always freshly cooked. i've been going for ages and still haven't tried everything! if you have to choose i would recommend honest burgers and franco manca as a starting point :) have fun and i look forward to reading about it on your blog! x

Coco <3 said...

You must visit the Victoria & Albert Museum whilst you're in London - it's undoubtedly one of the best in the city. Also, in typical brit fashion, you might like to go for afternoon tea - the best places to go are the Berkeley, Claridges, The Ritz or Fortnum & Mason. Also, definitely visit Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace (Kate & Wills soon to be home and previous home to Princess Diana and Queen Victoria), Westminster Abbey, St Paul's Cathedral and Winston Churchill's war rooms.

For vintage shopping, Brick Lane has the best row of vintage shops in the city, (be sure to check out Spitafield's market on a Thursday too). Portobello Road in Notting Hill is a must too - the market is best on a Friday and Saturday (Friday would be better because its less busy - try to get there earlier if you can!). For high street stores, Oxford Street and Kensington high street are the best destinations. The Topshop in Oxford Street is so big you could spend all day in there! and its home to Selfridges too - a must!

Covent Garden is great for restaurants, shops and street entertainment - it is super lively and has a great atmosphere, whilst Hyde Park and St James Park are great walking/picnic locations!

Enjoy your trip - London really is one of the greatest cities in the world :)

p.s and Oyster card for the tube is your best friend!

Johnson said...

Very nice collection of pictures in bringham. one can save their money to stay there in cheap hotels in birmingham. Thanks for this blog.

girlonthepicketfence said...

Hi! Some places i'd recommend to pop by are....

For excellent vintage, head to Brick Lane on a Sunday. They have a Sunday market and couple vintage shops peppered along the lanes. And keep your eyes peeled for vintage pop-up marts, they're great for scoring some excellent finds! Brick Lane's also famous for Indian curries and graffiti art.

If you're heading to Camden on a Sunday and craving vintage, look out for the Electric Ballroom near the tube exit and this little shop called Gerty & Berty in Camden Lock market. They have two shops, one selling clothes and the other shoes. Bought two handbags and two pairs of shoes at very reasonable prices!

While Oxford Street is always worth a visit (Primark is always my first stop), I think it's much more fun shopping in Covent Garden. It's more shops than department stores, if you know what i mean. And for delicious brunch, go to Bill's Cafe. For lunch, look for Princi (I had the best lasagna in my life there).

If you dig Chinese food, go to Leicester Square and look around. There's some goood restaurants there! If you got a sweet tooth, look for Hummingbird cupcakes in Covent Garden (there's also one near the V&A museum). Their red velvet cupcakes are to die for.

Touristy things, take the open top sightseeing tour bus that takes you to all the must sees. There's different routes to choose from. It's definitely a less tiring and faster way of seeing the London sights. I'd recommend Tate Modern, the V&A and for something off the beaten trail, go to Little Venice. From there, you can cruise down the river to Covent Garden.

If you're keen to head out of the city, you can consider Bath and Oxford. Bath just transports you to Rome and Oxford for its medieval looking buildings.

Lastly, enjoy a beer in London at 5 in the afternoon!

Hope this helps in planning your trip! Can't wait to see pictures!

nina oliva said...

Check out "The Afghan Kitchen" on 35 Islington Green (Phone: 020 7359 8019) for amazing Afghan food and cosy atmosphere. I'd recommend to book a table or be flexible... ;-) plus, this area has may culinary treasures to discover!

Enjoy your trip, Nina

Spring Break Linky

I am so excited to finally be on spring break. It has been such a difficult year and I'm so glad that its almost over. I saw this spring break linky and I'm linking up. I even put a border around it like some other bloggers. I'm so excited because I finally figured out how to do that.

I love Vegas, its close, cheap, unless you're a gambler and I love the Cirque du Soliel shows. I want to see the new one at the Aria.

I have piles of books that I keep adding to but don't have time to read.

I haven't been to the movies in a long time and I can't wait to grab some popcorn, cherry coke, peanut M&Ms and lose myself for a couple of hours.

I love to craft but again, there just isn't enough time. Although I don't know how far I'll get with my crafts. I recently bought some oilcloth that I want to use to make some tote bags. I also bought some tole painting patterns and wood pieces to paint and some scrapbook supplies. Might have to wait till summer vacation.

And to end my wonderful spring break, I will be meeting up with some fabulous bloggers from SoCali. I'm so excited. Actually, there's one other thing on my bucket list. I need to turn this into my blog button:

Are you on spring break? What's on your bucket list? Just click on the Spring break button at the top and link up.

  1. Thanks for linking up! VEGAS...sounds like your list! Hope your break is enjoyable!

    Brigid's Daily Lesson Log

  2. I'm so jealous you are going to Vegas. It's my FAVE! We are going in April but I am still jealous you are going :)
    Kickin’ it in Kindergarten

  3. I;m looking forward to meeting you tomorrow at the meet up! I'm a big Vegas fan it!
