*Since I first posted this review I’ve been told that the Flying Burger Company has gone down hill a little. Hope that’s not the case! Up until this point I’ve been unconvinced by the idea of having a burger delivered. A few months back I tried Chosen Bun burger delivery with my friends at work, and whilst…

I’ve always been a little bit sceptical of anyone covering Bruce Springsteen’s music. I’ve assumed I’d find it difficult to hear a new version of a song when I’m so fond of the original, spending years growing to love the way that Bruce sings and plays it. A few months back a couple of Springsteen…

London is bulging at the seams with burgers, and so am I. I love them, naturally, but in many ways I’m feeling a little full up. With every week comes a “cool” new burger restaurant churning out “dirty” food. I can’t open a magazine without reading about the next “hottest” burger “joint” (hottest now also…

When non Springsteen fans hear how many shows I’ve seen on the Wrecking Ball tour they say I’m crazy. I’ll admit I’ve had my moments, but is it that much of a shocker? Is my behaviour really that irrational? I don’t think so. In the grand scheme of things, I’m pretty restrained. I meet people…

Living in London you might assume that I am spoilt with a choice of new burger joints to try at lunch. You’d be wrong. As much as I’d love to be having a laugh over a burger on my lunch break, the reality is I’m sat at my desk at work. This isn’t because I’m…

I’ve always been a bit unsure about Five Guys burgers. The thing is, Five Guys opened in London at the same time as Shake Shack, and there will always be a special place in my heart for Shake Shack because that’s where the idea for this blog started, before seeing Springsteen in NYC (sorry, have I said…

Bruce Springsteen has a way of convincing me that I am a brilliant singer. If you ever see a girl walking down the street in London, headphones in hollering ‘THIS TRAIN” that’ll be me listening to Land Of Hope And Dreams. I’m not embarrassed at all, but for some reason my friends and family are. Apparently it’s…

Ever tried to have a conversation with someone when they are wearing a mask? I don’t mean a fancy dress mask, Halloween mask, cat and whiskers, or a masquerade ball mask. I mean a full on, industrial metal welder’s mask. It’s harder than you may think. That’s why, a few Sundays ago I found myself…

This post is very brief because tomorrow I’m flying to Italy to see Springsteen and I haven’t packed, booked a place to stay, and perhaps most importantly, found my passport yet. My priority this evening was to go to Shake Shack, one of the newest burger openings in London. Shake Shack was originally started up…

If there’s a load of typos and spelling mistakes in this post I’m sorry. I’m sat on my sofa the day after Springsteen at Hard Rock Calling and I am whacked. Who knew watching Bruce and the band could be so exhausting? So Hard Rock Calling was my third Springsteen show this year. It seems…
