More eloquently known as the “Bermondsey Beer Mile” - the mile itself has actually grown to a rather greedy two miles. Based along the archways of a railway line that runs towards London Bridge Station, just off London's South Bank.

So now, when someone asks me if I prefer mountains or beach - I can't pick one over another, both are an absolute guarantor for a grea[...]

Ah, the humble taxi. King of the road; saviour of heeled-feet and eternal cause of digress and unease… Nothing grinds my gears more than taxis. They are by far the worst form of transport and often an ongoing source of distress when visiting foreign lands. And the worst of them - airport taxis! No doubt on many an early morning you have stepped she[...]

However, what people don't realise is there are so many things that make the North East the perfect place for that getaway. The People The North East of Eng[...]
