A Nostalgic Family Visit to Elmer & Friends Exhibition

Last night, we were invited to the press/gala night of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Kings Theatre and honestly, we’re still smiling about it!

We were invited to attend press night for 2:22 – A Ghost Story at the Kings Theatre last night and oh my goodness… what a night it was! This review is totally spoiler free, so please feel safe to read on if you don't want spoilers! 

If you’ve been thinking about buying a Merlin Annual Pass for 2026, this brand new “Stay for the Night, Play for a Year” deal could be the best-value way to do it.

We were incredibly lucky to be given a sneaky peek at one of Chessington World of Adventures brand new PAW Patrol themed rooms, and honestly… WOW. Chessington have done it again, and somehow they’ve managed to raise the bar even higher!

We were kindly invited to press night at Theatre Royal Portsmouth and were treated to an outstanding evening of festive entertainment.

We were lucky enough to be invited to the press night of Aladdin at the Kings Theatre Portsmouth this evening, and honestly… I’m still so dazzled I’m not quite sure where to begin! Everyone who follows our family adventures knows how much we adore the Kings, but there is something uniquely magical about the Pompey Panto every single year. And this year’s offering didn’t just deliver that magic, it sprinkled it absolutely everywhere.

This year, we fancied going somewhere different for our annual pumpkin-picking adventure and wow, are we glad we did! After hearing so many amazing things about Sunnyfields Farm in Southampton, we decided to give it a try. The final push? When we heard they had created a massive pumpkin portrait tribute to Ozzy Osbourne! We’re huge Osbourne fans, so that completely sold it for us. 

This October half term, we set off on a fun-filled autumn adventure to Pumpkinville at Gunwharf Quays! We weren't sure what to expect in all honestly but actually it turned out to be one of our favourite seasonal outings yet!

We were absolutely thrilled to be invited to watch Ministry of Science Live at the New Theatre Royal in Portsmouth yesterday. Having heard glowing reviews from its London run over the summer, we couldn’t wait to see what all the buzz was about and it did not disappoint!

We had been desperate to visit the Jurassic World Exhibition London ever since it returned in May! We sadly missed its first visit to London last year, so when it came back, we were thrilled. We booked it as a special pre back-to-school treat and have been looking forward to it all summer.
