The Bucket List – A Silverstone Single-Seater Experience with Badger GP
Last month, we took a blogger to dazzling heights with a hot air balloon ride at Bristol International Balloon Fiesta; this month, we had our feet firmly on the ground and pushed the pedal to the metal with a track-tearing single-seater experience at Silverstone! As one of our most popular days out (we have a lot of petrol heads perusing the website), we knew it would be a highly sought after Bucket List and we wanted to pair it with an equally brilliant blogger.

Alice Fearn – An Interview With Wicked Star Actress
In celebration of Wicked‘s 11th anniversary, Red Letter Days caught up with the lovely Alice Fearn who stars as Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West. We found out what sort of things have gone wrong during performance, the kind of feedback she receives from fans and whether she thinks a witch’s broom or a giant bubble would make the best form of transport. “It’s about friendships, how they create who you are today and how you can fight through adversity and come out the other side.”
