No.1 Lieutenant suggested we go to Nopi in Warwick St., Soho, a new restaurant from Yotam Ottolenghi and his team. I have always loved their flour-less lemon drizzle cake from the delicatessen in Notting Hill, so I was looking forward to the visit especially as No.1 was eating meat again. I am usually wary of going to…
I mentioned in a previous post(Nov 2011, ‘Kowsky Crutches’ ) how I loved the design of Kowsky crutches. They have a new distributor, and have sent me some images as you can see. The main distributor is now Sunrise Medical and they are creating a micro-site of local distributors. So the previous contact in Milton keynes…
I have been meaning to go to The Cinnamon Club restaurant for a number of years. Primarily because it’s one of the few restaurants that have been consistently recommended to me in Victoria, London. It serves modern Indian cuisine and I’ve never been too keen ever since I had a really hot curry in Brick Lane. I arranged to…
The Blue Palace, Elounda Crete was recommended by a non disabled person as somewhere to go. They have disabled rooms and access appears to be well thought out. I hope to inspect them soon!

I went to the Everyman Cinema at Maida Vale to see A Dangerous Method the other week. The American Lieutenant had said it was accessible and had sofas, wine and pizzas. I arrived and was pleasantly surprised at the modern lift to the first floor, we then realised that the cinema we wanted to go to involved me…
I went to Pollen Street Social for lunch as opposed to my previous visit for dinner. The food was again superb and I must recommend the ‘Spanish Egg’ as it was an interpretation of an English Breakfast. I had a hangover so it was just what I needed but a lot more refined and tasty than a…
A new video is on YouTube filmed by The American Lieutenant. It’s me and a ‘stair climber’ going to see Nick Lowe in concert at The Leicester Square Theatre. Full story to follow, it was definitely a ‘cool’ experience.
For too many years to mention I have been going to my hairdressers Laurel S , just over Richmond Bridge on Richmond Road. During the ‘many years’ my needs have changed and no matter what, they have been able to accommodate me. A testament to any hairdresser is their turnover in staff and at Laurel S this is very…
