Geeky Date Night at The Dice Box King's Lynn

Geeky Date Night at The Dice Box King’s Lynn

Posted on by Jupiter

While I was in King’s Lynn for a work event, Dann and I decided to check out the local area. We were recommended The Dice Box, which had recently opened in the area, and was actually running some sort of event night. We have our local Geek Retreat and have been to similar board game themed places like the Loading Bar in London, so wanted to check this out! The Dice Box is a franchise, like Geek Retreat, so there is a system to it and similar ones across the country have the same vibes.

Luminate at Sandringham Estate - Light Trail

Luminate at Sandringham Estate – Light Trail

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] We are a huge fan of light trails and love exploring them, whenever we can! Wintertime is just made so much better with light trails. When looking for some new light trails to explore, we headed to Luminate at Sandringham Estate. Luminate is putting on a few different events at various locations across England and Wales, so it’s worth checking to see if they have one near you and which one would be best for you as well.

All American Dinner at Zak's Yankee Diner

All American Dinner at Zak’s Yankee Diner

It’s become a bit of a tradition to crash Dann’s Mother’s holiday in Waxham Sands each summer. She has a tradition of caravanning in Waxham Sands Holiday Park, but as we aren’t really a caravan family, Dann, our kids and I normally stay somewhere nearby. This year, that was extremely close to Zak’s Yankee Diner – an American style diner with tons of American classics. I’ve been to a few American Diners in Great Yarmouth, and they haven’t really impressed me, as an American who’s been to diners in America. With that said, I had hopes for Zak’s Yankee Diner, especially as they have three locations and have been going since 1976!

Family Dinner at Gonzos Tea Room

Family Dinner at Gonzos Tea Room

Posted on by Jupiter

At the end of May, we celebrated our 5 year anniversary of being a family. Five years feels impossibly long, and we spent a lot of time this year reflecting on our lives. One of the things Dann and I wanted to do was re-visit our first family outing. You see, the first time we went out as a family unit, we went to the Norwich Gaming Festival and then had dinner at Gonzos Tea Room! At the time, Robin was so little that she didn’t really eat (nor does she remember much of it), where as Kai and Amelia had a very limited pallet. Going back with them being so much older was such a fantastic time and the food did not disappoint!

Blasting Each Other at Scorpion Airsoft Gelblaster 

Blasting Each Other at Scorpion Airsoft Gelblaster 

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] When it comes to activities that Kai is particularly excited for, there is only really a few. Laser Tag is his current go-to, so when we learned about the Gelblaster option at Scorpion Airsoft, we were pretty excited to take Kai to a thing that is sorta like Laser Tag, but also sorta more hardcore in a way! Gelblaster is a way of playing Airsoft, however the “pellets” within the gun are actually soft, gel beads that don’t actually hurt.
