What to wear on a night out in a casino
A night at a casino is always a glamorous affair. There is just something about the mixture of money, gambling and champagne that gives it that glorious, decadent edge – just think of Daniel Craig and Eva Green smouldering in Casino Royale. But although the lockdown may have closed the casinos at the moment, the availability of online gaming and gambling means that you can enjoy a virtual night at the casino and really go to town on your look.

Short blasts of me time
There are so many different ways to take time out today, especially with the internet providing on-tap entertainment in multiple forms. The problem isn’t really what to do with free time – it’s more about finding that free time in the first place. Mums who are at home with kids full-time are probably one of the worst groups of people for making time for themselves. When your kids don’t need you for five minutes, what do you do? If you’re like most mums, you’ll rush around doing some boring chores that you don’t’ have time to do otherwise, but that hardly constitutes a break! The problem with breaks around the…

Sparkle and Shine Indeed! Nativity The Musical
Christmas came to Wolverhampton tonight, and whilst it may be slightly early, I couldn’t feel more festive if I tried. Because if you are looking for a show that is the epitome of feelgood, family entertainment, then you must see Nativity the Musical, which is delighting audiences at the Wolverhampton Grand.

Bonfire Night Fun
Remember, Remember the fifth of November, Gunpowder, treason and plot. Bonfire night is one of my favourite nights of the year, I love the chance to get wrapped up in your new Winter woollies, watching the sky light up with the most beautiful fireworks, keeping warm around a bonfire, whilst filling my face with hotdogs and hot chocolate. In general, I am not a fan of the great outdoors once Summer is ended, but for Bonfire Night I will make an exception. During my childhood it was the norm to have a bonfire and fireworks in your garden, with Catherine Wheels tied to fence posts, bangers that made a…

Beauty and the Beast casts a spell at the Birmingham Hippodrome
One of the most beloved of all fairy stories proved to be equally as enchanting when performed as a ballet, when Beauty and the Beast weaved it’s spell at the Birmingham Hippodrome last night. The latest production by the Birmingham Royal Ballet told that age of told of love conquering all with a mixture of menace and charm, and with an ending that was sublimely romantic. The story is the one we are all familiar with, an angry violent Prince is transformed into a beast by a woodsman disgusted by his bloody pursuit of a vixen. Meanwhile, a down-on-his-luck merchant, faced with baliffs and creditors, is waiting for a fleet…
