Also the Queens back garden, these beautiful grounds are great for a Sunday stroll to see the pelicans or to feed the squirrels. Duck Island Cottage is worth a look too, a idyllic little cottage situated in the grounds which was specially built as the bird keepers home.

I love how much you are aware of the changing seasons out of the city; there are numerous beautiful forests around Hertfordshire to go for a run, a walk or have a picnic. One of the best destinations for a day out from London might be Northaw Great Wood. The main entrance is located on the Ridgeway, the B157 from Cuffley to Brookman's Park.

The best bacon sandwich you will ever eat. Pretty much fills you up for the whole day.

My No.1 favourite graveyard in London. Calming, overgrown and a little bit spooky :)

A great club to see amazing performance from the funniest drag queens in the city. I have so much laugh and fun every time I am going.
