Lockdown – from lavish lunching to decadent dining by way of serious snacking, we can safely say we have packed on a bit of what I like to fondly call “Pandemic Poundage” over the past few months. Yup, unfortunately there’s only so much all you can eat madness whilst binging on Netflix that a body can take sadly…and mine had seen a LOT of that over the last 5 months. So I decided it was time to start taking first steps towards getting my weight back to its usual comfort zone. I know part of getting back in control is food prep but heck, food prep can be tiresome, pricey and requires…thinking. I wanted quick, healthy, quality meals that were as convenient as they were tasty and at a good price to boot. So prepare to meet your food prep saviour in the form of Musclefood Prepped Pots!

As you may be aware, there’s a new addition to the FDJ LDN family. Samson, our 5 month old Poochon. With his fabulous hair and mighty spirit, he has bounded into our lives and straight into our hearts. And from the amount of puppy love he has been getting on social media as well as on the streets come walkies time, he really is top dog! Making sure our fur baby is as happy and healthy as possible is our main priority. One of the first ways to ensure your puppy is in their prime is to really look at what you are feeding them. With so many brands on the market, it can be a baffling world of choice. Finding that perfect balance between delivering tasty food that your puppy will want to devour, whilst ticking all the nutritional boxes and being the highest quality possible to please puppy parents can be a challenge! When Samson was asked to try Hill’s Science Plan Healthy Development Puppy Food, we were delighted to review. So let’s paws for thought and see whether Samson felt ruff after reviewing it or whether it was in fact…the dog’s bowl licks…

With the British “summer” actually not being very…well…summery, there’s only one way to spend those rain-filled days or nights – a trip to the flicks! Yes – our date night would not be dampened (both metaphorically or literally) because escaping into the world of the movies is always the perfect destination! We had been after seeing Disney’s Aladdin for some time, so one particularly inclement Saturday, one of our 3 wishes was to experience it in the best possible way. And the perfect venue to do so? Well, that had to be Vue, Altrincham. Small but perfectly formed, this is no “diamond in the rough”, but a “whole new world”of entertainment, comfort and quality. So jump aboard our magic carpet and see if our trip was everything we had wished for…

Hotels.com have gifted me spending money, but all views are our own.

Manchester – damn you are marvellous! As dwellers of this fine city, we are huge ambassadors of its hidden gems.

Sure – there is comfort in the familiar, but heck, great things come out of stepping out of your comfort zone!
