Perfect Show for Rachel at Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch

[Ad- gifted experience] We’ve gone to improve theatre before, but Perfect Show for Rachel is something that takes aspects of improv, but is so much more than that. Rachel is the director of the show, with a big panel full of buttons. These buttons trigger different scenes or mini-games, that the rest of the actors on the stage then need to act out – until Rachel pushes another one. Each show is unique, depending on Rachel’s mood, but the show isn’t put together to entertain us. It’s put together to entertain Rachel.

Posh Pals Swizzels Love Hearts

There is something so absolutely adorable about the different Posh Pals Swizzels Love Heart collection. From the soy and sushi to the more traditional love bee, there is something for everyone!

The single, bigger plushies are also adorable, especially if you find your love’s favorite creature holding an adorable love heart! These are a cute and fun gift that adults alike would enjoy.

6 Course Meal at London Steakhouse Company Marco Pierre White

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I do love a romantic dinner out, and the six course tasking menu at London Steakhouse Company, by Marco Pierre White, is a fantastic, intimate, date spot perfect for Valentine’s Day. Dann and I have previously been to one of Marco Pierre White’s other restaurants, which had a more casual approach, so we were excited to try out this one as well. There was a doorman who took our coat, hung it up, and then we got seated. Their 6 course meal had a menu with a few set items and some items to choose from – and we also selected things from the cocktail menu. Now, it’s worth mentioning that the lighting here was quite dim, moody, and romantic. So, it was a touch challenging to actually take pictures, but we did very much enjoy our evening together.

Visiting St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Vienna

When we were visiting Austria, our friend had set up a bunch of different locations for us to visit, that have significance in the area. St. Stephen’s Cathedral was one of the first on the list. This is a large Roman Catholic church that is nearly in the centre of Vienna, with beautiful views from the outside. We went in the wintertime, when there was a Christmas market all around the outside, which was so fun to see too.

Whirly Derby is a unique marble-racing game

[Ad – Gifted Product] Every other Monday, we play a board game at our local Geek Retreat and have a few shapes, as a way to kick off the week. This time, we played Whirly Derby with Robin, Dann, Amelia, myself, and Amelia’s friend who joined us for the afternoon. Whirly Derby is a very unique looking board game, being primarily made of metal and with rolling marbles made of glass throughout it. Setting up the board game is easy, as you sort of fold out a little cardboard base, plug the metal topper on it, and then add in the triangle ending bit, that the marbles come out of.
