So THAT’S What The London Eye Is All About | #MerlinAnnualPass

I’ll admit it had been a looooong day, and I was actually rather happy at the prospect of a gentle rotation on the London Eye. Except the closer we walked, the higher it looked… until I was doing a pretty good job of hiding my total abject terror of going up to a very excited 9yr old Bear (who seriously has no concept of fear. She’ll say yes to anything if it looks a bit fun). The queue took no time at all, and...

Thorpe Park Fright Nights Tickets Giveaway!

We had the dubious pleasure of visiting Thorpe Park’s Fright Nights recently. I say dubious not because it’s a bit of an iffy event – it’s so not. It’s frankly brilliant at the whole scare-you-pantless thing, which is why I was naturally dubious about going.But the event was all part of our Merlin Annual Pass Ambassador Big Plan, and a long-promised event to No.1 son – so I really needed a solution...

Weymouth Sea Life | #MerlinAnnualPass

This year we were seriously thrilled to be chosen by Merlin as an Annual Pass Ambassador. Sadly, this totally excellent news signalled the start of a catalogue of disastrous months – 2016 has not been kind to the LittleStuff house. Whooping Cough actually stole the first three months of the year; it was as much as I could do to drag through each day with the bare essentials, days out and fun stuff were simply off the agenda. Of...

Moonlit Canoeing on Windermere

Following our brilliant afternoon ghyll scrambling in the Lake District we grabbed a bite to eat in Keswick (amazing burgers – and one ‘mac & 4 cheese’ – from Bar Metro – TOTALLY recommended, they were brilliant) and headed down to the National Trust’s Low Wray campsite  on the shores of Windermere to meet up again with Phil – we had plans for moonlight canoeing. I had been excited about...

Why Personalised Tickets Aren’t the Perfect Answer…

Touts can’t re-sell tickets for eye-watering sums when they’re stamped with your name and photo, but a recent survey discovered that almost 75% of us aren’t willing to buy personalised tickets… Not all secondary resale sites are evil, you understand, but many are run by touts – who hoover up as many tickets for gigs, festivals and sports events as possible using automated bots, only to put them back on sale minutes later with...
