Sisters By Blood, Friends by Choice

My and my Sister have always been close. There's a four and half year age gap between us which is just enough for us not to be overly competitive, but not too much that we can't relate to each other. She's my best friend and I am so proud of everything she has achieved in her life. So this post is dedicated to her. I put a Vlog up today all about her opening night in the musical she is currently appearing in 'Around the World in 80 Days' at the Union Theatre- get tickets here . She is amazing in the show and I was so proud to see her up there. ALSO, she has started her very own YouTube Channel! This is something she has wanted to do for a really long time and she finally has. She was worried about people thinking she only started because of me but that is NOT the case. Courtney is the OG YouTube watcher and her channel is amazing! I highly recommend going over and checking it out  here . I'll leave my favourite video below, this is the first video ...

February Favourites and My First Giveaway!

Hello! It's me! Not Adele. How are ya? Sorry I haven't posted on here for a while (I'm sure all of you reading this, i.e my Dad- Hi Dad!- are devastated).

First on quite an exciting note I have a little giveaway for you! The watch brand Jord (pronounced Yode; I was saying it wrong for ages), very kindly sent me one of their watches and a link for you to win an £100 gift voucher to use anywhere on their site. Or if you just want an instant £25 off anything, use the discount code georgie_ashford at Checkout. How awesome! Giveaway link:  https:...

Les Mis or...

Taking a risk is scary. Trust me I know. I find, when it comes to making a decision, I'll most likely go with the safest option. That makes sense right? When planning a Theatre trip, I completely get the desire to spend savvy. After all, a family trip to the Theatre, a trip with friends, or even a solo trip, quite frankly costs a bomb. Not even counting the increasingly expensive theatre tickets, there's also the petrol, train, tube costs, along with food, drinks and overnight accommodation if you're travelling a long way. All things considered, going to see a show is going to cost a lot. So keeping this in mind, I see why, in general, people will flock to the long running, West End classics such as Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, Mamma Mia or The Lion King. These shows have been around for years. They've well and truly withstood the test of time. And people love them. Myself included, Les Miserables is one of my all time favourite shows and I'm sur...
