Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief first graced our shelves in 2005, and I am glad that the wonderful story will be rekindled once again with a film adaptation, from the studio that brought us Life of Pi, to be released in late February. I am a huge fan of stories told by unusual narrators, and … Continue reading
It’s been a long time since I’ve watched a film quite as exhausting and quite as terrifying as Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity. Scarier than pretty much any situation imaginable in horror films (or in life itself), Gravity presents you with the idea of being lost in complete nothingness, miles and miles beyond earth. Ryan Stone (Sandra … Continue reading
So after postponing their performance for a couple of weeks due to Alex Turner’s laryngitis, and months and months of anticipation, Arctic Monkeys came back to their home county and performed in Sheffield last night. And boy, was it worth the wait. Now, I’m a huge fan, and I knew I was going to enjoy … Continue reading
I visited Margate last weekend (you can read about my experience here) and I had the pleasure of going to the Turner Contemporary, a museum I had never been to before, but had heard wonderful things about, especially from the proud locals. So instead of squeezing in a little paragraph about the current exhibition, ‘Curiosity: … Continue reading
I managed to overcome my aforementioned ‘festival dilemma‘ and decided to go to Suffolk’s Latitude festival just over a week ago with a small group of close friends. I had never been before and I had read all good things – being particularly interested in the emphasis on literature, poetry and comedy, aspects neglected by most … Continue reading
Situated inside Brixton’s Market Row (which, with Brixton Village, was voted the UK’s best private market), Seven is a fantastic little spot for a few cocktails and afterwork tapas style nibbles. It was recommended by a friend, and I’m not hugely familiar with Brixton so it took a little bit of wandering about to find, … Continue reading
Daft Punk are back, and my, my am I excited. Today I heard ‘Get Lucky’, the first song released from their new album Random Access Memories (due to be released in the UK on 20th May). It’s a song packed full of beautifully funky sounds, vocals from N.E.R.D’s Pharrell Williams and guitar from disco legend, … Continue reading
I absolutely adore London, as some of you may know, but it’s also great to escape and explore another great city. Last weekend I had the pleasure of exploring Glasgow, which I haven’t visited since I was about 6 years old, and it was much more memorable this time around! With so much to see, do, … Continue reading
We often take the city we live in for granted, so this bank holiday weekend, I decided to have a good old tourist day, which was spent wandering around central london, snapping the sights and finally going to the Roy Lichtenstein exhibition at the Tate Modern. I’d never been 100% convinced by Lichtenstein’s work, possibly … Continue reading
As today was far, far too cold to do anything outside, so we decided to visit the free and local Horniman museum just down the road in Forest Hill. Full of weird and wonderful artifacts and taxidermy a-plenty, it was a lovely morning with some good photo opportunities. Continue reading
