A chat with Stacey Solomon at Birmingham Skyride
The Skyride hit the city of Birmingham last week in super style. Over 20,000 cyclists turned out to take part in this fab event, and they were rewarded with dry weather, some amazing BMX stunt riding, the chance to see an Olympic gold medal courtesy of the wonderful Laura Trott, and also the opportunity to meet the very lovely Stacey Solomon. I was very pleased to have the chance to meet Stacey and ask her some questions. She was super blonde, super tanned and super gorgeous (jealous much…).

Birmingham Sky Ride – Get on your bike!
I blame Bradley Wiggins. It seems the Mod cyclist has inspired a whole generation to get on their bikes. Everywhere you look at the moment there are people jumping out of their armchairs, grabbing some serious lycra and a whole range of snazzy helmets and going for a bike ride. The success of the fabulous Team GB cyclists, including the ultra glamorous Victoria Pendleton, will only increase interest in a pastime that helps you to keep fit and active, whilst also getting you from A-B in the most environmentally friendly way. In the spirit of this new passion for cycling comes the much-anticipated Birmingham Skyride, coming to the city on…

As well as celebrating two years of this blog, I was also celebrating seven years of being married to my long-suffering other half, and the only place I really wanted to celebrate was at MPW in The Cube.

I was lucky enough to attend the launch party earlier this year, where guests were treated to fabulous canapes that hinted at the delights at the menu, so I…
