This year we stumbled upon something special. Something that really tickled Catherine, yet remained relatable. Lewis Denny, star of the Tyne Theatre Pantomime, created and released a second persona, Karen the Mam. With over 500,000 views on the video, you could say that the sketch was a success!

Being a little nieve, we had forgotten to pre-book. So, to move away from the crowd we headed over to Liverpool One and spotted Bill’s […]

#AD – We were invited to play at Junkyard Golf Club by Visit Liverpool It’s always a bit tricky navigating an unfamiliar city & despite looking on the directory & google maps we had a few detours to find Junkyard Golf Club.
