As for the Summer menu – there are some lush additions – they have brought back the Pork Ribs!! (A personal favourite!) Another new addition for them meat lovers is ‘Grilled Pork Bulgogi Wraps’ which look lush, and not too heavy to put you off your main. There is…

  So it turns out that Children would vote Ant and Dec as there one of their favourite explorers! Read on to find out why…. London, April 2014: While the older generation view revered personalities such as Sir David Attenborough and Christopher Columbus as ultimate explorer material, new research reveals that Cardiff’s kids look to cheeky chappies such as Ant & Dec and even Joey Essex (5% of the vote) for exploring inspiration.

Hello, my wonderful readers I would just like to apologise for the lack of blogs, I am full up with Uni work at the moment and it seems to be never ending, so if any readers are experiencing the same – I feel your pain! I would like to dedicate my next blog to my 3 wonderful sisters as last Friday it was ‘National Sibling Day’ and with them being my blood and all, I think they deserve a mention…

Everyone interprets ‘Lent’ in different ways depending on their religious beliefs. Whether it is solely about GOD and what he did in order to save us, or gaining control over sins and failings, by praising for cure or purely just restricting yourself from bad habits to help you lose weight. Personally, although I went to a boarding school founded by Henry VIII and attended chapel every morning before school, I am not 100% dedicated to Religion.  However, each year I…

So I wanted to blog about this as I think it is an amazing idea for an amazing Charity, and they need your support! Walking With The Wounded are looking to get as many schools and students as possible to take part, at the same time, in this brilliant national event. The record stands at 930 pairs, but we know that we can beat that if we get as many schools as possible involved, and we’re planning to beat it…

So I am one of them people that pretends that they don’t like valentines because it’s so cliché, but hey, my boyfriend took me to Venice last weekend for a birthday/anniversary/Valentines’ Day present… so who am I to talk? Although I am not doing anything for Valentine’s day tonight, I am holding my hopes up maybe for a cheeky box of chocolates or a bunch of flowers for when I get home, probably hoping too much! In previous years it…

The same day but a different year. Hearts, hearts, hearts… EVERYWHERE. Every restaurant and shop is bombarded with the feeling of ‘Love’. But as for someone with a few single valentine days under my belt (one particularly followed by a movie marathon of Horrors) it’s actually quite an emotional day. Being single on valentines day is almost like your asking for sympathy from those in relationships – one year my best friend offered for me to come for (a paid)…

So my January started off sober…….but me being me, I lasted 10 days- Student problems. I think the temptation is a…

Hey Cardiff Timers! So it’s nearly Christmas…ahhhh…..dbwehfdbhewf! Everybody in the office is fed up of me repeatedly saying, ‘Do you know what? I just can’t wait for Christmas!’. They have switched off all together. Being a Boxing Day baby, this time of year for me is the ultimate celebratory time for me. It’s all about spending time with family and friends and eating a lot (obviously!). Christmas for me involves eating, drinking, sleeping, watching Christmas films, more drinking and lots…
