I am so proud to be British, we have the best food, the best country, the best weather...oh wait, but we do have a beautiful countryside! Thanks to Rebecca at Brunette Lifestyle for the tag!

How many cups of tea do you have a day? How many sugars?

I reckon 1 or 2 a day, either green tea or your typical breakfast tea. I love a good cup of green tea but there's some kind of comfort in having a great cup of breakfast tea. 

Favourite part of the roast?

Mmm, this is difficult and making me so hungry. My Dad can whip up a great roast dinner, so I reckon his yorkshire puddings, but for me a roast dinner is never complete without some carrots!

Favourite dunking biscuit?

Er rich tea, is this not obvious?! They are literally made for dunking.

Favourite quintessentially British past-time?

Baking, obviously.

Favourite British word?

Cheeky. That's British enough right?

Cockney rhyming slang?

Elephant's Trunk for Drunk.

Favourite British sweet?

Fizzy bubblegum bottles, I used to eat them all the time...

What would your pub be called?

Adele's Place, original I know, there would be copious amounts of wine and cocktails, and free wifi and bloggers from everywhere could hang out and share their ideas and work together. Sounds fun right?

No. 1 British person?

This is so hard! I've been thinking about baking recently (duh, when am i not), so Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood would be up there. I also saw them cook live at the Good Food Show which was good!

Favourite shop/ restaurant?

My favourite shop has to be Hema, or maybe Tiger, it originates from the Netherlands I believe and they have so many different great things for pretty good prices too. Check out their website here so you can see how great it is.

What's the first British song that pops into your head?

One Direction of course, Night Changes.

Marmite- love or hate?

Love, I do have to be in the right mood for it though.


If you've taken the time to read all of this then I tag YOU. Yes, you. Only if you're British of course.

God Only Knows

I've been playing this basically on repeat the past few days, how cringe am I. You need to listen to the most perfect collaboration in a while!

Obviously I'm slightly biased, but One Direction were pretty amazing in it!

It was produced to celebrate the launch of BBC Music, and what a celebration!

What do you all think of it?

Madame Tussauds September 2014

As I mentioned previously I went on a tourist trip into Central London. On this day I went to Madame Tussauds. We hopped on the underground to go to Baker Street and Madame Tussauds was only a minute away from the station. Buying your tickets in advance means that you get to skip the queue, even though there wasn’t one anyway.

We headed in and an entire room of wax figures greeted us and we suddenly turned into overexcited kids! Literally…we didn’t know where to head first.

Now I’m going to warn you, it is no secret that I love One Direction (sorry not sorry). About a year ago, they made their wax figures that went all over the world to all the different Madame Tussauds locations. They are now back in London so I was a bit overexcited, but don’t worry I’m not like one of those completely crazy fans who basically lives for them. Anyway, I just had to buy the professional photos but luckily Sarah works for Merlin Entertainment and we got a discount!

After we both managed to calm down a little, we carried on seeing all the different wax figures. There are hundreds and I don’t want to bore you by describing them all! So I’ll show you some of my favourite ones here…

If you ever get the chance to go to London and you are looking for something to do then I would highly recommend going on the London Eye and to Madame Tussauds.

It was one of the best days out I’ve had and I haven’t laughed that much in a while.
