The London List: Drinking

Hello Wonderful People
 
Bank holiday weekend is upon us; what better excuse do we need to head out with our mates for a few bevvies? In true British form the weekend is set to be miserable; cloud and rain are forecast to be the main feature of the weekend, how splendid. If your weekend plans were weather dependant, then head to one of these lovely bars to avoid the rain and do a sun dance!

Highlights:

Mabel's
Tucked away on Maiden Lane, Mabel's is a new addition to Covent Garden's long list of trendy bars. It's a great place for an after work drink and small bite to eat. Prices are slightly high if you don't go when there's an offer.
 
Wine
 
Sugar Cane
An awesome little bar with a downstairs club, just down the road from Clapham Junction Station. Great music and choice of drinks if you're after a night out in Clapham.

Ekcovision
This cool new bar in Brixton Arches is a perfect date setting or great for a few evening drinks. The prices are pretty good and the atmosphere is great. This will be my new favourite haunt when I move to Brixton in a few weeks.

 
Cahoots
This place is awesome!! The whole theme of this 1940s speakeasy bar is brilliant. The interior was quirky, the staff were lovely and in character and the cocktails were super tasty. I'll be heading back here for sure.

Why I'd Love to Ski in Canada & Why You Should Start Planning a Trip There Now

I know at this time of year people are usually planning trips away in the sunshine; but (if you're organised) these will have been planned for quite a few months in advance. Now is actually a good time to get ahead of the crowd and be thinking about winter holidays. Summer has just arrived and the majority of people aren’t thinking of a winter holiday just yet, so it's the perfect time to book! Plus, booking early means you can usually can get amazing prices and deals. Skiing and snowboarding holidays are such fun, even if you are a beginner! They're my favourite type of holiday so are the perfect choice for a winter getaway. I would love to ski in Canada one day, so I’m sharing my love for all things Canadian today. I've been there in the summer before, but it would be a great destination choice for a winter holiday!

3 Places I Wouldn't Revisit (Sorry Not Sorry)

Hello Wonderful People! Ever heard of the phrase been there, done that, got the t-shirt ? Of course you have! Well, I feel this phrase sums up some of the less-interesting places I've been to. Don't get me wrong, I love visiting somewhere new and discovering all it has to offer, but sometimes, there aint that much there. And it aint that great. There aren't that many places I've been to on my travels that haven't inspired me to go back one day, but there are always exceptions to the rule. Well, 3 to be precise. I'll get an apology out of the way now.. I'm sorry if one of your all time favourite places is on this list! Travel is different for everyone and so many different things can influence you opinion and enjoyment of a place. Sadly, for me, these places just didn't float my boat. And while it's nice to say I've been (and got the proverbial t-shirt), I won't be going back in a hurry. Cuff me.

A Long Weekend in Copenhagen

Hello Wonderful People! I was lucky enough to spend the May Day bank holiday weekend in the lovely Copenhagen with some friends. We even managed to squeeze in a little day trip to Sweden, what more could you want? I've never been to Denmark before and several people had raved about Copenhagen, so my expectations were sky high. I had a few things in my mind of what I wanted to do, but other than that I was happy to explore the city and see what we could discover.
