“A place where a kid off the street could walk in one door an unknown and go out another a star.” Berry Gordy
Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson and The Miracles, Diana Ross and the Supremes and of course Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 are among many artists that changed the shape of music back in the sixties and seventies with one thing in common, the Motown label.
“Bean & Hop was created under the consideration that London roasts the best coffee & brews the most amazing beers, so why not have a local where you can enjoy the best of both worlds under one roof!” Bean & Hop
Tucked away on a corner in London’s SW18 is a wonderful independent coffee shop called Bean & Hop (formerly The Earlsfield Deli). Good coffee, craft beers and seasonal fresh food are served seven days a week.

“Wander the corridors of royal power and pleasure.” Hampton Court Palace
If there’s one thing us Brits do well it’s history. Love them or hate them our Royal Family is legendary and so are our historic palaces and royal residences. I found myself in Hampton Court last weekend and with a few hours to spare so decided to explore Hampton Court Palace as my last visit was a school trip many, many years ago.
