Robin has been going to Perform Sheering for nearly two terms now, and it’s really quite fantastic. They did a sort of tester class at Robin’s school, which she really had a fantastic time with, and then she ended up asking to join up as it was the start of a term. She blended in seamlessly and looks forward to each and every class, which has been fantastic. Dann and I believe that having some sort of after school club or activity, especially with children from outside their school.
Harlow Town use to have a Harlow Town Show, many, many years back. Recently, as a part of their new developments within Harlow, they’ve been hosting more events. We’ve seen the Christmas Market, the Graffiti Festival, Lions on the Loose, and now the Harlow Town Show. This event specifically was meant for only people who live in Harlow (they had this whole ticket verification processes and everything), as it was put on for the people of Harlow.
Harlow Town Show Ticket Situation
The event had different stands and shows on each day, for three days. We went on the Sunday, going to both the daytime show and the night show. (Friday and Saturday also had a night show. Both night shows were ticketed separately to the daytime shows.) The tickets for the Harlow Town Show were very confusing generally, with Friday and Saturday evenings being labelled as 18+ only, but also Sunday evening shows saying the same in their emails – and there was this whole thing where they’d call and “check” if you were living in Harlow if you got a ticket – but obviously some people just lied and brought their out of town family members anyway. It’s all a bit of a strange thing!
Once a month, Amelia and I go to a cupcake class together! It’s a sort of mother-daughter bonding time that we both very much enjoy, however, Amelia asked to have a few friends over and all go to this class, and of course, why wouldn’t we? The Wonderland cupcake class hosted by Sweet Designs by Jennie was such a fun one for friends as well. Amelia had two of her friends along, one of which who isn’t photographed – we all had a fantastic time.
Dann and I have been talking about going to a Brazilian steak house for quite some time. This specific one, the Nelore Steak House in Loughton, was recommended by a friend who had gone and told us all about it – so it’s the one we were most interested in going to from that recommendation! One Saturday, we asked Kai if he wanted to go as we didn’t have anything fun on, and all of us went along.
In England, there are these sort of pop-up sculpture trails, where a charity will pick a specific animal and create loads of statues that appear all around an area. Previously, Dann and I checked out the Penguins by the seaside! This time, however, Lions on the Loose have come to our town as they are placed around Harlow, Essex and Loughton. There are over 64 lions to find, all of which have been adopted by local schools, businesses, and charities and then decorated. In our town centre alone, there are tons of them!
