Brewers Fayre launch new Menu
When it comes to family friendly, affordable, eating out options, the Brewers Fayre chain is always near the top of the list. This Autumn, they have launched a new menu, along with a brilliant week day, daytime offering which runs from 12 – 6pm Monday to Friday. During this time diners can enjoy two starters for £2.50, two mains for just £10.99* and two desserts for £2.50, meaning you can enjoy a three course lunch for less than £20. Last week I went along to sample some of the dishes from the new menu at the Walsall branch of Brewers Fayre. This is one of the newer restaurants in the…

Disney on Ice presents World of Enchantment in Birmingham
The little girls had their best Elsa and Anna costumes on. The little boys couldn’t decide whether to buy a plastic sword or a cuddly version of Lightning McQueen, it could only mean one thing – Disney on Ice was back in Birmingham, at the city’s Barclaycard Arena. And, once again, it was a show that was high on Disney charm and magic with much-loved characters and crowd pleasing songs giving the audience a lovely night to remember. The show started with a set piece from Toy Story 3, as Andy is putting away his childish things before he embarks on a new adventure at college. The toys end up…

Loving IKEA’s new kitchen rules, as decided by kids
When it comes to funny ad campaigns, IKEA always seem to come up trumps. Last year it was the frankly hilarious hypnotist who had people believing they were living in an IKEA world based in their store (you can check this out here.) and this year they have kids taking over in the kitchen – quite literally. From designing kitchen spaces to making up their own rules for cooking and spending time in the kitchen, I have to say that in this case, to quote The Who, the kids are alright. I’m guessing that part of the reason I love this is that, as a really bad cook who frankly…

Each week, in the run up to Christmas, I am going to post a gift guide pointing out some of the best gift ideas from around the net. These will comprise of the bright and beautiful, the weird and wonderful, with the idea being that there really should be something for everyone, no matter how hard they are to buy for. First up I am looking at some of the beauty ideas from Selfridges, including those amazing beauty Advent Calendars that frankly fly out the door and become sell-outs before you even have chance to blink. This year it is a lovely celestial inspired design that is echoing the Christmas…

CustomLogoCases – Every Device in Every Style
In an age where we all seem to have smartphones and ipads, it is the next logical step that we would want to personalise them. After all, even though we might have the same item – we don’t necessarily want it to look the same as everyone else. But the truth is often the opposite for equipment that belongs to small businesses and schools. Personalising items such as ipads with a logo or name give them some uniformity. This can make them harder to steal and take off premises, and also looks so smart and professional. For a small business, it is also another form of promotion. CustomLogoCases are manufacturers…
