Lunch at Gao Express Luton

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I are always looking for new places to eat! Whether it’s a sit down restaurant or a quick takeaway, it’s always a fun time to try new food and enjoy a meal together. Midweek, we decided to treat ourselves and head over to Luton to try out the new Gao Express location, which is a Halal Chinese takeaway (with limited seating inside) that has a bunch of fantastic dishes to choose from.

Keys to the Castle – Chaotic Doors

[Ad- gifted product] Every other Monday, after school has ended, you can find us at our local Geek Retreat playing a board game! This week’s game of choice is Keys to the Castle – a fun, strategy tile-based game where you are looking to get from your side of the castle to the opposite side, without any of the other players messing with you too much. The game itself feels quick to set up and understand, and provides for a great length to keep everyone focused and busy!

Fart Machine – Silly Noise-y Toy

[Ad- gifted product] It’s toy season! Wicked Uncle has so many different toys aimed at different age ranges and interests. This Fart Machine is one that feels more on the silly side, sort of like a prank machine, as you can set off the fart noises to trick people into thinking someone farted. Or, that’s what Robin plans on doing when her friend Nic comes over next as she feels it’s really something he’d love.

Standing Out Stylishly with Firmoo Glasses

[Ad- gifted product] When I was 13, I needed corrective glasses so that I could see things! It was something that I probably needed before I was 13, as I didn’t want to wear glasses so didn’t mention my deteriorating eye sight, but from that time I got to pick out a pair of glasses that I would be wearing, until, I suppose, they broke. I have always been a one pair of glasses person, often getting two of the same, default styles so that I have a back-up pair encase one breaks. I’ve even got sunglasses with my prescription, in the same style as my main glasses. Well, this year is ending on a year of liking fashion a little bit more than I have previously, so when I saw the glasses at Firmoo, I was pretty excited to have some pairs to pick from.

Playing Stealth Ninja Cats in Shadow Ninjas

[Ad- gifted product] Every other week we find ourselves at our local Geek Retreat, playing a fun board game! This time, we took along Shadow Ninjas – which feels a fantastic fit for the Halloween season with our family. This is a fairly easy to play, four player board game where one of you plays as a guard cat while the rest of you play as shadow cats (or ninjas, in costumes, disguised as shadow cats) with the goal of getting to the koi ponds at the back of the board.
