Grand Day Out at Plymouth Market

To celebrate the completion of the work to Plymouth Market, I was asked to attend their Grand Day Out with the lovely Julie Credicott of Blue Skies Catering. Even got a bird’s eye view of cookery demonstrations by Peter Gorton too.

The Hotel Inspector

10^th July 2017

In May 2017, I was invited by Dot~Teas to choose, wrap and pack a selection of vintage china for Miss Ivy Events. They were both attending an event at Colliters Brook Farm to be part of Channel’s 5 The Hotel Inspector.

Needless to say I was a tad excited by this. Please check out the pictures taken on the day of Alex Polizzi and her crew tucking into tea and cake on my lovely vintage china.

The Colliters Brook Farm episode of The Hotel Inspector airs on Channel 5 at 9pm on Tuesday 11th July 2017.
