[Ad- gifted experience] Amelia has been getting into collecting Pokemon Cards, so we’ve had our eye on more events around our area. We’ve gone to a few card shows in our town, but hadn’t been to one of the medium or large sized card shows, so when we were invited to the London Card Show at Esher Sandown Racecourse, we wanted to see what it was all about!
[Ad- gifted experience] It’s not the first year that I have attended the Pokemon Europe International Championships, which is a huge, overwhelmingly Pokemon focused event that happens at the Excel each year. As this year is the 30th anniversary of Pokemon, there was an even bigger buzz than usual as the event was coming up. I am very much into Pokemon, running a local Pokemon Go community (that’s officially partnered with Niantic) and I’ve written about Pokemon events as a member of the press for quite some time – so I wasn’t going to miss this event which was a stone’s throw away from my town!

[Ad- gifted experience]Â We’ve gone to improve theatre before, but Perfect Show for Rachel is something that takes aspects of improv, but is so much more than that. Rachel is the director of the show, with a big panel full of buttons. These buttons trigger different scenes or mini-games, that the rest of the actors on the stage then need to act out – until Rachel pushes another one. Each show is unique, depending on Rachel’s mood, but the show isn’t put together to entertain us. It’s put together to entertain Rachel.

[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.

We have been known to like an arcade, especially Dann who has actually been ranked in pinball, so after our friend Quang’s birthday party, when he invited a bunch of us to NQ64, we were down to go. Dann and I had not been here before, so we were interested in seeing what they had to offer when it came to arcade machines. The whole exterior looks like a night club, with lots of neon colors, and the inside matches that.
