Sometimes a day trip can feel like a small holiday. A change of scenery, doing something different. Last Friday, India and I did a day trip to London. We had tickets to a matinee, and got the train from Stockport. We always try and visit different boroughs of London when we go down, but this time we went to the V&A. It was to do the Taylor Swift songbook trail, which is spread across the museum, so you get to visit so many exhibitions. I am going back for the Naomi Campbell exhibition later, but this was a fab way to discover the museum for a first time. I remember visiting it a long time ago with my Mum.The show was at the Savoy Theatre, which means a quick visit into the Savoy hotel is a must! A bit of shopping after and an evening train home meant a great day was had and 21000 steps achieved.

Only a short train journey from Nice, you can tell which train as it is the one with lots of girls channelling their Emily in Paris, in the South of France😂. I do remember visiting myself when I was 20 and dressing up for the day!
It is somewhere you should visit, to see the sports cars on the street, to visit the casino, and to soak in the air of money in the harbour.
If you are visiting before 2pm, you are allowed into the casino foyer, it is a palace of excess and worth looking at and imaging the people who have sat in the bar.
Opposite the Monaco Automobile Club and the Grand Prix starting/finish line you find the Collection. The is Prince Alberts personal collection of cars, all roadworthy. It includes a lot of the racing cars from over the years, as well as classic cars, and my favourite 2CV.
I recommend a walk upto the Palace for the most amazing views of the harbour. The yachts and motor yachts will make you dream of a different life!

I've got your next weekend break covered! 🌆✨From hidden gems to buzzing streets, discover these top five city breaks below, just remember your walking shoes!
• Oslo - Highly recommended by some of our team, Norway's capital is a brilliant blend of old and new architecture.
• Berlin - The German capital is big, bold, and beautifully compelling. There's more here than you can fit into a weekend, even a long one, so take your time and enjoy strolling around.
• Budapest - Named one of Conde Nast Traveller's top places to visit in 2024 after celebrating its 150th anniversary in late 2023.
• Venice - Great for couples but also friends, families, and solo travellers, this road-traffic-free city is one of the loveliest in the world for simply ambling around - perhaps with a gelato in hand.
• Palma - The Majorcan capital delivers blissful sunshine less than two and a half hours' flight time from London.

Manchester Airport ….Ryanair.
Last time we did T3 we were shocked at how bad it was. Nowhere to sit, long queues and dirty.
We were on a silly early 6 am flight, so we took advantage of a twilight check in with Ryanair. 2 of us came over the evening before and checked in the bags. 24 minutes from parking up to leaving again, and parking is free!
This morning we arrived and went straight through fast pass and it took about 10 minutes in total, including a random bag check!
There are new places to sit upstairs and new coffee and food places near the gate. All a good experience, along with an ontime departure!
Well done Manchester Airport!
I love a London show weekend. This was made better as it was also a great catch up with a fab friend and a chance to visit parts of London I had not done before.
Need to plan the next one🤣
How about a holiday to the Sunshine state, away from the theme parks.
