Horseshoe Falls

A lot of people consider these "Niagara Falls" but this section is actually called Horseshoe Falls! It's the largest of the three waterfalls that collectively form Niagara Falls on the Niagara River, but these are specifically on the Canadian side.

The "American Falls" look cool, but they're drastically smaller...

Somersby

There's a pub that my family likes in Ontario that do great chicken wings - BUT! They also have half-price pitchers, so... need I say more?

Summer fires

I love the fire pit at my parent's house - it's perfect for summer fires!

New security for EU customers!

You might have already gotten an email, but wanted to give you a heads-up:

A bit wet!

Went out on the boat while at the cottage and got a bit wet... It was windy/wavey so we got hit by the water pretty bad! Oh well, keep smiling.

Cottage views

As you guys probably saw, I went to a cottage while in Ontario! My parents friends cottage is on Lake Muskoka which is a really popular place. There's something so calming and peaceful when sitting on the dock and watching the sun go down.

My family has never had a cottage, but it's always helpful to have friends with c...

Homemade mug

What a nice gift from my sister! She works at a place that makes these by hand and I had said I loved the tree-stamp - so she got it for me! Lovely for my coffee when outside in my parents backyard.

Home sweet home!

One of my favourite things to do in Canada is going for walks/hikes. My parents go basically every day to stay active so I make sure to tag along whenever I visit. This particular one is almost entirely covered by the tree canopy so it's great if you think it might rain!

Having a great visit so far, hope everyone has ha...

Murder Friends! NEW PODCAST!

Hey everyone! This is my new podcast! It's about true crime, mystery, and lame stuff that's happening to us lately. I wanted to give Patreon an early-look at our first episode. 

We're be officially launching on Wed with another 2 episodes, then a new episode will go live every Wed after that. The first few are a bi...

8 Out of 10 Cats

8 Out of 10 Cats was probably one of the first panel shows I saw when I first moved to England. I used to really enjoy it, although haven't seen it in ages. Pretty silly but still good!

The Countdown one is pretty funny, too, but I don't care about the puzzles. Skip the puzzles!

YUM

One of the best things about Florida theme parks are that most of them sell turkey legs. 

Yes.

Yes, please.

(I'm not that sweaty, I just came off a water ride. I promise.)

Dolphin spotting in Florida!

This pier area was always great for spotting dolphins near by parent's condo in Florida. I miss it!!

Floridian gators!

This movie was exactly what I thought it would be: a bit silly, lots of jump-scares and not a complex story-line. Sometimes you just want to watch a bunch of Florida gators attack some people, you know? 

I will say this: There's a dog involved. I know, I didn't realise beforehand, either. I think I was more tense t...

Mock the Week

I think every British comedian has been on Mock the Week! Another one of my favourites, although it really depends who's on it, I think. Very funny, lots of different formats and I always like the stand-up portion. I'll definitely watch, especially if someone I really like is on it.

Twists! Music! Architecture!

On a recent Classic Movie Night I watched The Third Man from 1949. At first I thought: Okay, perfectly fine. Then we hit a decent twist and I think: Ooh, we're getting there. Then I ended up really enjoying it! The camera angles and artistic direction is beautiful - the architecture, the sets, the music, the cinematography, a...

I loved it!

I'll be honest with you - I don't always like Tarantino's films. But this one felt wildly unique and I really enjoyed it! The cinematography is perfectly executed, the music is wonderful, the acting is great and it's a really interesting story! 

I kept wondering: how is this going to end??

If you can handle s...

What a view!

Check out the Lincoln Memorial at the top of the National Mall in Washington, DC. You'll get this view from the top of the Washington Monument. 

I think the tower is actually closed now because of renovations - when I was there, they told us the Monument was slowly falling down!

Would I Lie To You?

I think Would I Lie To You is one of my top-favourites. David and Lee play off each other so well that each episode is genuinely funny. I'm always happy to watch! Plus they use the tried and tested formula of having a set cast but include new people each episode. 

THANK YOU! AGAIN!

Arlington

Did you know there are more than 400,000 people buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia? If you ever visit Washington DC, I would absolutely recommend seeing Arlington Cemetery first.

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Thank you so much to everyone - all 100 Patreons!!!!!

I didn't want to start Patreon originally because I was terrified that no one would show up... what if you organise a party and no one comes?? 

The fact that 100 of you support me financially this way is incredible and hard to believe. I'm beyond grateful....

Ranked one of the best films of all time?

Last Classic Movie Night I watched the Italian film Bicycle Thieves from 1949! Ranked as one of the best, and most important, films of all time. 

I don't think I've ever watched a movie with such a basic plot that was turned into something beautiful and interesting. I can't say it was my favourite movie of all time...
