Cinderella Rocks 2024 – At The Garage Norwich! Cinderella Rocks is back at The Garage in Norwich for the 2024 panto season and for my money I’d choose it over the big theatres any time. Supporting small theatre is a beautiful thing, it helps support your community, but more than that, it’s just really, really good! A cast of three fiesta sisters, and this is the story of Cinders, now “Ella” as you’ve never seen her before (unless you saw […]
Days Out
Winter Wonderland Norwich 2024! Until the 5th of January the fun will continue at Winter Wonderland Norwich, which means you’ve got LOADS of time to make a festive visit! We were booked to visit their opening weekend but the poor things had to close because of very windy weather. We will get there… We definitely don’t want to miss out on their ice skating rink, but I needed to tell you all about it before we go because time is […]
Stick Man Live 2024! Stick Man Live has been a stalwart of the London Christmas theatre scene for more than a decade a decade and I’ve been a consistent visitor to rvmeview for my blog. Itt never gets old, I, and my children (more importantly), love it every year and have failed to see how Freckle Productions could have made it any better – it’s simply brilliant. However, this year it does come back with a bit of an extra […]
Wroxham Barns For Christmas 2024! Putting feet wrong is not something Wroxham Barns do (to my knowledge) and that’s why we keep going back. They chameleon into each season in what seems to be a seamlessly, effortless (and yet I know, in actual fact, a tremendous amount of work goes on behind the scenes) journey to being the best family day out in Norfolk! Christmas 2024, and the experience they are offering, is no exception. It’s totally and utterly, fantastically […]
The Thursford Christmas Spectacular and Enchanted Journey of Light 2024! The Thursford Christmas Spectacular – Well, what can we say, other than the description “does what it says on the tin” and couldn’t be more apt in that! Thursford is a year long plan in the making, which comes to fruition in November and positively blooms until Christmas. Until the 23rd of December, usually twice a day, this enormous masterpiece of a show, which has been setting Thursford alight for […]
Pensthorpe Pumpkin Festival! From the 25th of October until the 3rd of November, for the whole of a Norfolk half term, Pensthorpe is celebrating all things spooky season with its brand new pumpkin festival! Though the clever chaps at our family fave, Pensthorpe, have been offering pumpkins and a carving station during Halloween week for a few years, their new pumpkin patch is a first for the 2024 season for them, and we, in turn, got to be some of […]
Wroxham Barns For Halloween 2024! There’s a LOT going on for Halloween at Wroxham Barns this year and we’ve already kicked off with trying out their Pumpkin Patch! New to the Wroxham Barns schedule for this time of year, the pumpkin field is a stand alone visit and you neither need a ticket to the farm, nor need to pay to get into the “Pick Your Own Field”, you just pay what you pick and would like to take home. […]
Magic Adventures With LeapFrog’s Binocular Camera! This time last week we were on a magical adventure with LeapFrog where by they invited us to Woburn Safari Park to try out their Binocular Camera in the best place absolutely possible, on safari! What a treat! The little ones were gifted their very own pairs each and we were whisked off to see the lions, tigers and bears up close and personal on a VIP tour where we went off road and […]
iFLY Indoor Skydiving at Xscape Milton Keynes! With a family as big as mine, and having ages that range greatly (we have a 14, a 12, a 6 and a 3 year old), I am forever searching for things to do as a group which benefit and interest all of us. Most of the time we have a compromise somewhere along the line for one or more of us and so when I find something which invites all ages to […]
Dear Legoland’s Chief Executive Officers, I know, as the people where the buck stops, you would absolutely be interested to know what a truly terrible time lots of your guests have when visiting Legoland. I’m sure not ALL, for example my 6 year old, who is like a little puppy, would absolutely keep coming back for more; ever hopeful that “this time” WILL be the day he actually gets to go on lots of rides. But for so many with sense, […]
