When it comes to eating lunch, Dann and I are not big sandwich fans generally, if I am honest. Though, we were wanting something light and not too hot when the weather was wonderful, so we took at chance at The Fizzy Tarte – a gastro-pub looking place, which serves sandwiches, charcuterie boards and craft cocktails! The Fizzy Tarte does more than just lunch and brunch. They have master classes in cocktail making and afternoon tea if that’s your thing too.
[Ad- gifted product] I feel like I have seen advertisements for the Wubble for years now. I am not sure why I have spent so long thinking it was just a giant ball, and that we had tons of those. Robin recently asked for a Wubble, as she told me it was much more than a ball, and something that is more like a bubble in texture, somehow.

[Ad- gifted products] With the weather becoming so lovely in England, we have been trying to get outdoors more!

The place itself had a bit of a strange vibe. The outside, featuring a big white fabric awning didn’t seem to match the interior and felt a little dated. Inside, the place was very well decorated, but the music didn’t really match the feeling that you’d get when being at such a fancy place. This was something Dann commented on a lot since – that he’d change the music to match the venue instead of playing Smash Mouth and the like. But, let’s get onto the real star, the food.

[Ad- gifted product] When I was a kid, I had a Bop-it that I carried around with me, whenever I went somewhere that I might need a bit of entertainment. We have had Bop-It’s at home, and our girls have really enjoyed the little hand-held gaming experience. When we heard about FliplSide, which is way less of an awkward shape, and sort of reminds me of Simon Says.
