Fun things to do when travelling by train
Aug 16 2022
Amidst lasting disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and increasingly frequent rail strikes in the UK, it can seem as though we’re subjected to more delays and long train journeys than ever before. Despite this, it’s not all doom and gloom for rail users and those of us who have to commute by train; in June 2022 in Germany, the introduction of cheap rail tickets saw the number of 100km – 300km train journeys rise to 46% above pre-pandemic levels, while UK operators investigate similar incentives to get the national network back up to speed. If you’re facing a particularly long trip on the train this year, never fear – travelling by train enables you to socialise, have fun and spend time doing the things you enjoy. Check out some fun things to do when travelling by train:

Show review: Horrible Histories Live
Aug 07 2022
On Saturday 6th of August a family from London Mums Magazine was invited to the Garrick Theatre to watch Horrible Histories: Terrible Tudors.
Horrible Histories Live offers a wide range of educational and entertaining events for children to enjoy and the current production is certain to be enjoyed by its younger members. The Tudor period is a particularly unpleasant era of history and its darker episodes are presented in a style which reaches for panto but, at times, doesn’t make it much beyond holiday camp entertainment standard. The two actors performing never lose their energy, though, and their talents in engaging the audience bring an energy to the performance which is certain to ensure that everyone leaves with a smile on their face.
