6 Course Meal at London Steakhouse Company Marco Pierre White

Posted on February 5, 2026February 5, 2026 by Jupiter

[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

Posted on February 4, 2026February 4, 2026 by Jupiter

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

Posted on February 3, 2026February 4, 2026 by Jupiter

[Ad – Gifted Products] 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.

Project 365 – January 2026

Posted on February 2, 2026February 4, 2026 by Jupiter

I wasn’t sure if I was going to do this again this year! It was such a fun project, but at the same time, I got a little redundant with writing up my day each day. I also feel like we do a ton, and this really highlighted how much we do pack into our lives. I absolutely love having a packed life with so many adventures – Robin calls us an Adventure Family, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In the end, I wanted to continue on and do another year, though I do have a feeling (and know for a fact) that this year is going to be a bit different to last, with so many fantastic plans in store. There is just so much going on, but I do love sharing our day to day in these sort of diary entries, each month. At the bottom of this post you can check out some fantastic bloggers who are also taking on this challenge, though some post weekly or even daily!

Solving Blackbeard’s Treasure at Escape Hunt Lakeside

Posted on January 30, 2026January 30, 2026 by Jupiter

As previously mentioned, this year is the Year of Escape Rooms, so we are going to be trying out as many as we can. Last year, we went to Escape Hunt Lakeside for their Alice in Puzzeland room, which was pretty good, so we figured we’d try another one there. This time, we went for Blackbeard’s Treasure – which, you may have guessed, is a pirate-themed escape room.
