What an absolute joy it was to see Channel 4’s The Piano being filmed at York Station this afternoon. The local talent was incredible, and it was so exciting to see everyone’s favourite Strictly and Traitors host doing her thing. The fringe! The tan! Make sure you catch it when it airs - it’s going to be epic.

Scroll through to find out why we’d recommend it for families in York looking for something a bit different 🍜 🍻

Green with envy of the families enjoying some wint

Green with envy of the families enjoying some winter sun at the moment? Well here’s a little reminder that just changing things up locally can feel like an adventure.

We hopped on a train up to Newcastle this week to see family, and even though it’s just an hour away and we only went for a day, it felt really good to have a change of scene and do something different. As luck would have it, it turns out that @fenwickofficial has an amazing @jellycat department now, so the kids were thrilled. There are nice walks by the river, some great free museums and lots of nice places to eat.

We only booked our train tickets the night before through the @lner app and managed to get them for under £40 return including seat reservations. Pretty good value for having left it so late, and so much more relaxing than driving. And no need to hunt for your passports, either…
