Out and About: Wine Tasting in East London
A few weeks ago, we sent our esteemed colleagues Lisa and Gudrun for an evening of wine tasting in East London. Wine tasting is a good experience for two friends (or a couple) to try – it’s cultured, informative, useful and most importantly lots of fun.

Ask Everyone: What Are Your Biggest Phobias?
Everyone is scared of something. We can all naturally understand a wariness of creatures such as spiders, snakes or sharks (the fact they can kill us is reason enough!) but we also often pick up on more irrational phobias from those around us while we are growing up. Then there are the phobias for which there is no rhyme nor reason. With everyone eager to share their weird and wonderful fears (with the promise of no names mentioned), please read and enjoy the phobias of staff in the Red Letter Days office… “Bananas! Not sure where this phobia came from, but all I do know is for all my…
