BrasilPortu – Bearwood, Birmingham
Bearwood High Street? More like Beerwood High Street! You see, it now has a craft beer place on it so it’s officially allowed to be called a high street rather than just a road. Congratulations! It was outside this craft beer place while sinking a couple of juicy pints that I started talking to aContinue reading “BrasilPortu – Bearwood, Birmingham”

Eating in Verona
Verona has absolutely mega massive Bill Shakespeare vibes. The bard quilled not one, but two bloody plays based in this Italian city. You’ve got ‘The Two Gentlemen of Verona’ and the lesser known ‘Romeo and Juliet’.

That’s how we spent our first wedding anniversary getting to Wales.Continue reading “Ynyshir – Wales”
Cornerstone – Hackney
“A cornerstone is literally a stone at the corner of a building. It’s an important stone, so it also means “the basic part of something,” as in, the cornerstone of the suffragette movement was getting women the right to vote.” Not my words, the words of vocabulary.com.
