The Liberty Festival in London has been running for years. If you’re a Londoner you’ve probably heard of it, but like me you’ve probably never been. And guess what, I and you won’t be going this year either. Is it because we don’t think it’s a good cause. No. It’s because whoever is charged with [...]

Usain Bolt book signing at Waterstone’s in Piccadilly not to be missed

Usain Bolt is the greatest sprinter we’re likely to see in our lifetime. If that’s true this will be a rare chance to see the man live in person in London. Superstars don’t do this sort of thing very often and once he’s had to do it a few times, he’ll soon want to stop. [...]

What would you say was the best month to visit London for things to do? June, July, August because the weather is also much better then or December and January because there’s so much happening and there’s the sales. What if I was to suggest September as being one of the best months to be [...]

Let me ask you a question – Are you a Star Trek fan? I’m not talking about “Oh I liked the first and second films,” I’m talking about you went to all the films, you can quote huge sections of them, you even thought Star Trek 5 was good, a true Star Trek fan. If [...]

Sometimes an event comes up in London that you just have to write about. Sometimes it’s because it’s just a brilliant event. Other times because you know most people wouldn’t haven’t heard about it. Chris’s post on the Millbank Tower was like that and I think so is the event at The National Theatre over [...]

Tango or the Royal Philharmonic – Spoilt for choice in London yet again

What I like about these two events is that they’re put on for the benefit of people living and working in London, no 5pm start here that only tourists can get to, no these events start at 6.30 and 7 and they’re very good. Spitalfields Market has been holding their free monthly Tango class and [...]
