An FACup To Remember
So this weekend saw the FA Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea.
As most of my followers know I like to enter competitions, I thought I would share my WINNING experience with you all. With all of my family being big Chelsea fans I was excited when I came across a competition on the Lucky Learners Facebook group, run by Di Coke , who's son was the lucky winner of the first round.
But this competition wasn't for me, it was for my grandson Jack.
Jack had to make a video of himself giving his team 'Chelsea' a team talk on how to win the FA Cup!

The competition was run by Emirates.
It was for the chance to be a mascot for your team!
So we set about doing a video.
Jack did an excellent one we filmed it in just one take .

I managed to enter it a day before the 2nd draw
Here is Jack's entry
Imagine our delight when a week later we received a message on Instagram to say that he had won!
Jack was at school when I found out so I had to to wait all day to tell him. As I had time on my hands I made a sign stuck it on the window and let him see it for himself .
Here is his reaction, it was priceless.
On Saturday 27th May 2017 after a nights stay in a four star hotel, Jack watched the players warm up before the match. After a ride on the Chelsea tour bus, Jack walked out on the pitch along side his favourite player Hazard.
What a dream come true!
Jack was on the pitch with 4 other Lucky Learner's children who were all lucky enough to win this once in a lifetime experience!
All of the kids did exceptionally well and I am sure it will be a day they will all be talking about for years to come.

OK I have to say it, Chelsea lost but we can over look that this time
it was worth it to see the grin on Jacks face walking out the tunnel

It's the newest must do craze for children,
my Grandsons could not wait to get there,
as they have been talking about
it for quite a while now wanting to go,
so we was delighted to get the chance to
go along and try it out.

FlipOut have the UK's biggest Trampolines
and in their own words it is
FLIPPING BRILLIANT
and in their own words it is
FLIPPING BRILLIANT
I can only agree with that statement,
i'm sure the kids would as well
As they really did have a FLIPPING BRILLIANT time
There is so much more to do then just Trampling
There is a Ninja Skills center
where you can battle it out with your opponent Ninja Style
see who can hang swing and hold on the longest
A Lazer Maze room to test your stealth skills
to see who can beat the beam's
with different levels of play and static and moving beams
its a battle to see who gets the highest score
and comes out the winner
Also a Zen Zone
for when you need a break
it includes a cafe, Meditation room and Sky lounge .
so while the kids are flipping about
mum and dad and take a rest and
have a well needed cup of tea.
Max loved running and tumbling into
the soft foam pit getting out and
doing it all over again and again....
The Adults had great fun on the giant trampolines
The older boys ran straight of to the higher jumps
they said they had an awesome time
i'm sure the kids would as well

You can book a slot on line for either one or two

this will save you time once your there.
Mini Flippers under 5 must have an adult with them

You must wear the Flip Out socks which can be purchased on site

Before your session you will watch a safety briefing giving the do’s and don’ts of the Trampoline Arena. The staff are first aid trained and on site at all times to keep you and others safe.
I have to say the first aid staff was great
Max managed to knee himself in the face
giving himself a nose bleed
the staff was efficient helpful and knowledgeable
whist claiming max down and being extremely friendly
They soon had Max laughing forgetting about his bleeding nose
and ready to start jumping all over again.
We even got a follow up phone call
the nest day to check up on him
which I thought was really good.
Not only is it fun its a great way to exercise and keep fit
There are lots of Health Benefits
in trampolining ,why not click into the link to see
how you can benefit from this fun sport
It is also a great venue to hold an adults or children's party

So over all I would say FlipOut
is a must do family day out
with the holidays approaching and our
typical summer weather
its great indoor fun &
exercise for all the family to enjoy

Thank you for reading I would love to know
if you will be visiting Fliopout center near you

From Amorino With Love
Yay! At last a decent luxury Gelato comes to Camden Town.
With living in Camden, I am often looking for somewhere to go with the family
for a special treat. As you can imagine I was very happy to have seen this open close to home
Amorio in Camden is the company's tenth UK boutique,
Set in the heart of the hustle and bustle of Camden Town ,
it is bound to be a very popular place to go,
With its lovely decor, friendly staff and a mouthwatering 24 delicious flavours
of Galeto and Sorbetti
that really do taste as great as they look,
I think its going to be a very popular place to go
for tourist and locals like myself.
They do limited seasonal editions include Organic Sicilian Citrus, Caramello al Burro Salato, Mango Alfonso d’India, Lime Basil, Tiramisu, Mawardi Pistachio Sorbet, Dulce de leche and Cioccolatothat are well worth trying while they have them .
All the Sorbetti are vegan friendly which is fantastic as that
means vegans along with lactose intolerant's wont have to miss out.
Along side these, they do Italian sweets treats and drinks,
Including 10 decadent Italian hot chocolates
with a good choice of tea's to choose from
along with sorbetti drinks and frappes made with two Galeto's of your choice.
They do amazing waffles and crepes that are freshly made while you wait,
with a topping of your choice ,
They do macaroons Al Galeto that just melt in your mouth
They do a great selection of cone's in different sizes,
so your find something for all the family from little to big .
I loved the idea of the kid size little cone for little
hands who cant eat a large one
It's going to be a place to visit time and time again , the staff are super friendly and on hand to answer any questions and to demonstrate how they make their amazing
Rose cones , they can do a rose cone with all 24 flavours
now wouldn't that be a treat
The Manger Khurram Hussain is extremely knowledgeable
about the whole of the Amorino range , answered all our questions and
offered lots of tasters .He was very friendly and
you get the impression he is very passionate about Amorino
and loves his job.
Myself husband and Gransdson Max actually got to taste all
24 amazing flavours, with all of them being so good it
was hard to pick a favourite , I think mine has to be the Banana
along with seasonal edition of Walnut & Fig
my husband the chocolate and Max the Raspberry
