Where The Hell is Mark?
September 15, 2011
First of all if you have not heard of Matt Harding check out his website at www.wherethehellismatt.com. Matt became an internet sensation a few years ago and one of the first “Youtube Celebrities” with his dancing around the world video.
Anyway a while back I subscribed to Matt’s mailing list for his next travels, a week ago I got an email from him saying he will be in Manchester to film a piece for his next video on the 14th September, the only problem was I was due to be in Amsterdam that day for a few business meetings. Luckily my meetings got cancelled so I was able to go to Manchester. Read more
London Film and Comic Con 2011
July 11, 2011
Friday 8th July
I left Wrexham on the 13.00 train to Chester where I changed to the direct Virgin trains service to Euston. This train was about half the size of the usual one and to make matters worse the seat reservation service was out of order so it was a free for all. I was lucky to get a seat but a number of people had to stand all the way to London. Read more

Friday 24th June
After a four hour drive I arrive at the Radisson Heathrow only to be told that the hotel is overbooked and I needed to go to the Park Inn down the road for the night, although I am a bit annoyed at this I come around when they tell me that I will only have to pay for one night and they will give me the second night complementary.

Flare Path – Preview Night Review
March 5, 2011
My plan to come to London this weekend was to attend the Entertainment and Media Show at Olympia, unfortunately with just a few weeks notice the event was cancelled, so with train tickets and hotel already paid for (and non refundable!) I decided to make the best of it.
I was fortunate enough to get some of the last tickets available for the first preview night’s performance of Trevor Nunn’s latest show “Flare Path” at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket. Read more

Collectormania Milton Keynes
May 30, 2010
Friday 28th May
I started the drive down to Milton Keynes at about 5.40 and it took just under three hours to get to the MK Dons Stadium in Milton Keynes.
I will be staying at the Doubletree by Hilton which is actually built in to the football stadium. Check in was really smooth and they gave me a free chocolate chip cookie. The room was very nice, you could tell this is a new hotel as everything is still fresh and clean. My room even looks over the pitch. Read more
London Weekend Jan 2010
January 25, 2010
Friday 22nd January 2010
Late last year I was able to get tickets to The Misanthrope at the Comedy Theatre so planned a mini theatre break to London around it.
I get to London my usual way which is the train from Chester to Euston, but this time there is some problem with the signals and we needed to be diverted via Wolverhampton adding an extra 45 minutes to the journey. Read more
