    Food & Fast Cars: Andy & Chloe Experience Life in the Fast Lane

    June 30, 2017 / No Comments

    Fast cars and fantastic food – sounds like a dream day out, right? Well last month Andy and Chloe got to make that dream reality, as they shadowed the film crew of a potential new TV show that combines just that – world-class supercars (like those on our Driving Experience Days) and delicious grub. The fuel for the show came as a result of online supercar influencer Tom Howard (AKA The Gentleman Racer) and butcher turned Dragon’s Den entrepreneur Paul Turner bonding over their shared love of cars, after meeting via Twitter. When they later met in person at the 2016 British Tour Car event at Silverstone, it wasn’t long before they sparked the idea of a brand new…

    Team RLD do Gauntlet Games for Willow

    June 28, 2017 / 2 Comments

    Regular readers of our blog will know that Red Letter Days staff never turn down the opportunity for charity fun, and going the extra mile for Willow is our favourite speciality. And so last Saturday, Trent Park saw big numbers out in force for Team RLD, at the king of wet and wild obstacle courses – Gauntlet Games. There were gladiators (obviously), there was sun, there were gorillas giving out bananas, there were random men in make up and pink tutus, there was a sumo wrestling ring. And there was a helluva lot of water!

    Red Letter Days loves London Pride

    June 26, 2017 / No Comments

    Pride in London boasts a long and colourful history – since its birth in 1972. Starting as a small gathering of 2,000 people, it has snowballed into an international success and attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. In 2016 alone, a record-breaking one million supporters flocked to the capital to champion equality and watch the famous, and fabulously flamboyant, parade. If you’ve ever taken part in London Pride you’ll understand what the hype is about. An impenetrable technicolour crowd sweeps through the winding city streets, charged with such a dynamic energy it’s as if the collective has one booming heartbeat. The message is loud and clear: “We are here,…

    Photography Tips: Capture Your City

    June 22, 2017 / No Comments

    Smartphones are as much a part of our daily lives as breakfast, lunch and dinner, and everyday across the planet we share billions of pictures snapped by ‘phone. More and more people are dabbling in the world of  photography, whether for the purpose of recording memories, enjoying a new hobby, or purely for the benefit of social media. But nothing quite beats the precision, composition and clarity of professional photography, no matter how many filters have been applied to a smartphone image. For many budding photographers, cities serve as a muse – and just because they don’t present the same serenity and natural allure as landscapes, it doesn’t mean they are lacking in beauty. Filled with…

    Our Father’s Day Twitter Party

    June 16, 2017 / No Comments

    There are clearly as many Homers out there as Mufasas, as many Atticus Finches as Frank Spencers… Do you celebrate Father’s Day? Have you got a gift in mind, or is an experience preferable? With Father’s Day fast approaching, we made it our mission to find out how best to mark the day. Of course, we had plenty of our own ideas about Father’s Day Gifts to start with. But what better way to update our gifting expertise than with a Twitter party? Wielding the mighty hashtag #RLDdads we invited fathers and offspring of the Twittersphere to share their memories, gift ideas and dad jokes. What a party it was… via GIPHY At RLD…
