What We Do In the Shadows Inspired Halloween Costume Ideas for Four Quarters Halloween Party

Dann and I are really big fans of What We Do in the Shadows! It’s a funny TV series that doesn’t take itself too seriously, about vampires trying (and failing) to take over New York City. These vampires are funny, don’t really understand the modern world, and are just a joy to watch. I was super excited to hear that Four Quarters are hosting a What We Do in the Shadows themed Halloween Party at their Elephant and Castle location!

Glamping in Cocoons at Lee Valley Campsite, Sewardstone

[Ad- gifted experience] Lee Valley have a bunch of different campsites all around our area! These campsites offer a variety of different ways to camp from pitching tents, to bringing your own caravan, to staying in cabins, cocoons or mini-homes on the property. We got the opportunity to stay in a cocoon at Lee Valley Campsite, Sewardstone. This little overnight getaway was one Dann and I booth took together, as a cocoon is a perfect place for two people to spend the night.

Trying Nepalese cuisine at The Gurkhas Restaurant

[Ad- gifted experience] I do not think I have ever had Nepalese cuisine before, so when Dann and I were invited to try some of the menu at The Gurkhas Restaurant, we both were pretty excited to try something so new to us! The Gurkhas was founded by Shrabaneswor Rai, who is Nepal born and is also the co founder of a few different restaurants in Islington. The head chef, himself, and his father-in-law were all inspired by the heritage of the Himalayas to create their menu.

A Day Out at Hobbledown Heath

Over the Easter Holiday, we wanted to make the most of the reasonable weather – so we decided to go to an outdoor adventure park! Hobbledown Heath is a new adventure park with tons of different indoor and outdoor play areas, actors pretending to be fairies and magical creatures, live animals to look at, and lots of places to explore. We went when they had a word-related scavenger hunt on as well, with letters posted up – which was very fun. It’s easily a place that you can spend an entire day out at, and we could have totally spent more time there then we did!
