London Fun

Another Bank Holiday weekend has been and gone. But not to worry there is another at the end of the Month, hooray!!

This Bank Holiday I was in London and got up to a variety of different things that I thought I would share on the blog.

Zombie Chasing

The first being on Thursday night I could be found running around Wembley being chased by Zombies......yes ZOMBIES.

2.8 hours later is a cross city Zombie chase game where you find yourself in a community of outlaws beyond the city limits in a place called Asylum. Outside roam hordes of zombies. Its basically a big game of Tag but much more fun.

You begin the game by forming small teams and being given a de-briefing and a map by the staff in the Asylum.

You then follow the map and look for the next safe zone all the time being chased by Zombies, some big some small, some slow, some incredibly fast.

Legless Zombie

The game took you all over Wembley park, from disused warehouses, to multi story car parks.

If you make it back to the asylum without being infected you get to enjoy the Zombie Disco or if like me and you do get infected, then you get Zombie-fied and covered in bloody goo. Its so much fun!!!

I got Infected :(

There are still a few tickets available for the remaining UK dates, so sign up if you want an evening of running for your life and generally feeling like a big kid again. :)

Blind Gin Tasting

On Saturday night we had a great evening taking part in a Blind Gin Tasting experience.  The London Gin Club is in the heart of Soho and the venue is small and cosy and you have the opportunity to choose from over 130 of the finest Gins in the country. The bar is dimly lit and creates a really great atmosphere to enjoy a Saturday night out with a difference.

From the wide choice on the menu we opted to do the Blind Tasting which involves you being given 4 mini bottles each numbered 1-4 and a range of fruity/vegetable garnishes. You then have to try and guess which type of Gin you are drinking whether it be dry, sweet, spiced etc and then choose a garnish to compliment your drink.

Mystery Gins

Gin, Gin, Gin

The price was really reasonable at £24 each and if you are looking for something different to try in the West End of London, I would highly recommend this place.

 We left with a smile on our faces and big bellies full of Gin.

Brick Lane
Brick Lane is nestled in the heart of East London and is well known for its street art and markets.
On Sunday the sun was shining and it was perfect for having a stroll around the markets and admiring all the weird and wonderful things people were selling.
It is also impossible to ignore the street art in this part of London, where you can find it with every turn of the head. Across brick walls, shop doors, and even dustbin lids.

It definitly was a weekend with a difference
Thanks for reading my little blog :)
