    Our Fourth Blogger Ambassador Event – MyChocolate

    September 22, 2017 / No Comments

    So far this year we’ve gone from beautifully decorating cupcakes at luxury cake boutique, Cake Boy; to attempting gravity-defying stunts at indoor skydiving centre, iFly and meeting the fierce big cats at Paradise Wildlife Park – talk about variety! Each unique #RLDTasters event has been a tremendous success and it has been fantastic to involve so many wonderful bloggers. So, when it came to planning our fourth (and final) blogger event of the year, finding something that would trump previous events wasn’t an easy feat. Fortunately, a little birdie let us in on a secret –  the way to a bloggers heart is with CHOCOLATE – who knew?! Taking this on board, we…

    Gifts For Pensioners

    September 18, 2017 / No Comments

    With the number of centenarians on the rise and more people than ever working in their sixth and seventh decades, older people are refusing to sit down and be forgotten. In fact, according to The Guardian, one in seven Britons will be over 70 by 2040! However, despite such a large proportion of society relishing their golden years, older people are often overlooked and underappreciated (when was the last time you called your nan?). There’s a common misconception that anyone past 55 needs to pack in the partying, ditch the dresses and swap spin classes for sewing. We’re here to say: WHAT A LOAD OF RUBBISH. When it comes to…

    A Lesson in the Art of Sabrage

    September 15, 2017 / No Comments

    English wine is one of our favourite things, and when an invite from leading wine producer and winery Chapel Down arrived we could barely contain our excitement. So last week, Simon, Emily, Chloe and Sophie were lucky enough to pay a visit to Chapel Down Winery, a beautiful 22 acre vineyard in Kent, located close to the picturesque market town of Tenterden. Throughout the day, the group of budding wine connoisseurs broadened their knowledge on the many varieties of sparkling and still Chapel Down wines, taking part in a guided tour of the vineyard and winery, before settling in the tasting room to sample some of their finest creations. Once palates were…

    The Bucket List – A Hot Air Balloon Ride at Bristol International Balloon Fiesta

    September 11, 2017 / No Comments

    This month we truly went above and beyond (the rooftops) for the latest installment in our Bucket List series, swapping the dark depths of the caves at Go Below Ultimate Xtreme Underground Adventure for the open skies, as Lily took flight in a hot air balloon at the Bristol Baloon Fiesta 2017! Bristol International Balloon Fiesta Returning to the city in August each year, Bristol International Balloon Fiesta is the largest meeting of hot air balloons in Europe, making for a jaw-dropping spectacle as 130 colourful balloons from around the globe (including two of our very own Red Letter Days balloons – the true stars of the show) assemble for the weekend.
