Lots of Tapas at Novo Lounge

Dann and I actually went to Novo Lounge when it first launched, taking our children with us. We ended up having a bit of a chaotic time, particularly due to some picky eaters who weren’t really sure what they were ordering before it arrived. We’ve been back a few times to grab drinks during their happy hour, but decided to try them out again for dinner, with a friend of ours, after an evening of playing Pokemon Go. Novo Lounge has a lot of community activities going on; drag bingo, board game nights, and on this particular night there was salsa practice happening! It’s great to see a venue become such a staple in the community and fun that they run so many events.

Triyit Box – Snacks, Treats, Cat Food & More

[Ad- gifted product] The Triyit Box is not a subscription box. Instead, it’s a way for companies to send out new food ranges or food they want feedback on and get feedback from people who might be interested in these products. I got a survey about a potential match, filled it out, and ended up qualifying for a box! This box had a strange mix of cat stuff, treats and drinks. Once you are done trying out the box, you need to fill out a lengthy survey on a bunch of different aspects of the things that you have tried.

Seeing the Animals at Port Lympne Safari Park

[Ad- gifted experience] One of our goals this year was to see more animals! This was something Robin had picked as a New Years goal, so we wanted to go out to something over the summer holiday that had a bunch of animals. Port Lympne Safari Park not only had tons of animals to look at, but also had a safari trip that allowed us to learn and see so many more animals out in large spaces, so we were very excited to head along! This place is absolutely massive, we were in no way able to explore it all on the day we went, so it’s well worth checking out the map and deciding where you want to go. We skipped out on the Dino Walk, due to wanting to focus on animals, and did prioritize monkeys as they were the most exciting thing for us all. There are also feeding times listed at the entrance, if you want to watch an animal feeding.
