On Thursday 7th March after 9 months of lessons I passed my driving test and I thought I’d share my driving journey, because I had a very positive journey with a couple of hiccups. I actually started learning before I went to uni in my year off between college and uni. I went with the guy who taught my mum and that was going ok, until I started volunteering in charity shop as a placement from the Job Centre and that’s where the relationship broke down. Also he wanted me to book and take a theory test which I wasn’t in the frame of mind to do. Then I got a shop job to tie me over and the lessons fizzled out and stopped. I then went to uni and didn’t feel any want or need to drive, I was quite happy with the situation I was in. It was June last year I seriously started thinking about learning to drive because it would make my life so much easier. Problem is it took so long to find an instructor, I started with ones in the local area but was unsuccessful with one even asking our ...

With 2 and a half months left until release we finally have the final full Live Action Aladdin trailer. Aladdin is my favourite animated Disney film, I am so excited to have another version to enjoy now.  We have Aladdin escaping the guards with his tricks and stunts to get away, we have a proper look at Abu who is so cute and still reminds me of Jack from Pirates of the Caribbean.

The Cave of Wonders look incredible it has this eery feel to it because it’s very dark but then colourful with the hints of gold. Obviously Aladdin grabs the lamp and we then get Genie, who it seems like is going to bring a ...

On Saturday 2nd March it was my 25th birthday and to celebrate me and Darren went to London from 1st-4th staying at the Travelodge in Wembley the High Road one which is directly above Wembley Central Tube station. We’ve stayed here quite a few times it’s cheap and convenient being a above the tube station and with Bakerloo line trains into Central London quite frequently. We got there late on the Friday so not enough time to do anything. On the Saturday we woke up early and I opened all my birthday cards and got my surprise present from Darren which was tickets to see Aladdin at the Prince Edward Theatre. I have seen it before but it is closing in August this year and I wanted to see it again before it closed. After grabbing some breakfast in the hotel we took the tube into Central London starting with the Disney Store on Oxford Street which is one of the best stores so much stuff in there that you don’t really get in the others, I didn’t buy anything in there. We then walked d...
