Sometimes a quick pitstop is all you need, and London is eternally well-equipped for those. But what about the occasions you have work to focus on, or time to kill, and home just isn’t an option? There’s a lot of chat about 'coffices' being the future of urban working, but not every café is up…

Promotional Post for Pringles. This weekend, in conjunction with Pringles, we went to V Festival, and had an amazing time, with Justin Timberlake definitely being a highlight. Arriving at the Pringles village on the Saturday, along with fellow blogs, It’s a LDN Thing and 1883 magazine, we were able to test out the Pringles party…
