What to See
The National Galleries Scotland are showing Roy Lichtenstein’s work from the 13th of March 2015 until 10th of January 2016; so there is plenty of time to go see this collection. The exhibition is going to be shown across three rooms, as part of the ‘REFLECTIONS at Modern One, the display will bring together a newly assembled series of works by Lichtenstein.’ Modern One has a ramp for access at the front of the building and disabled parking at the rear. It’s about 20 metres from the back to the front entrance. The exhibition is at ground level and there are two disabled toilets on the lower level one in the cafe and one just outside. They get a provisional 3 BBS Ticks). On the plus side with the exhibition being in Edinburgh it also makes it a good excuse to go on a city break (search Edinburgh on this website and find places to go and stay, we’ve reviewed loads. The Missoni now a G&V hotel is the best hotel I’ve stayed in for disabled facilities. We gave them 3 BBS Ticks)…
Where to Go
We recently updated our review of Balthazar in Covent Garden and it turns out they made their disabled toilet fully accessible since our last check so there is absolutely no reason why you can’t get there for some lunch/dinner this summer! The restaurant is based on Keith McNally’s ‘era defining’ New York restaurant of the same name. There was a mass of hype surrounding the London restaurant when it opened two years ago! There seafood bar is meant to be outstanding. Click here to read out updated review.
What to Buy
Something red. Red dresses, Red skirts with white shirts and red capes/blazers/wraps, anything red! The principle is ‘red all over’! This was seen on many catwalks for spring/summer 2015 including Calvin Klein and Versace. So whether you’re daring enough to wear all red, accessorise in red or buy some new red lipstick – it needs to be done this spring/summer and that’s for sure!
