Tweed Running

Today was spent on one of our favourite annual outings – the Tweed Run, this year being even more special as it was their fifth birthday!  We battled wind, rain, wind and more rain to make it to the end of the run.  Our ride was punctuated with a refreshing tea stop outside John Soane’s House, where we revived ourselves with cake and gin.  We were also lucky enough to meet the lovely ladies from Penhaligon’s who spritzed us with the most fragrant scents, enough to mask damp tweed!  We had a super day and I won 3rd place most dashing dame.  Thank you to Jacqui and Ted from the Tweed Run - Happy Birthday and here’s to another five tweedy...

Summer dates: Chap Olympiad

Now, as you may or may not know, Miss Bethan is the Events Manager for the Chap Magazine and therefore organises the Chap Olympiad, an annual celebration of all things Chappist and a bit silly. This year, it features all new games and we’ll be posting lots more about it in the coming months, but the most important thing to think about is WHAT ON EARTH DO WE WEAR? Two years ago, we had matching outfits… And last year Fleur and Bethan did… Watch this space to see what’ll happen this...

Help! A Zombie Ate My Girdle

We had our Halloween Ric Rac Club at the Blacksmith and the Toffeemaker in Islington – a slightly bigger place than our beloved previous venue The Fox in Shoreditch. We did encourage costumes, obviously, but even we were surprised and pleased by the effort that some of our guests went to! Take a look at a selection of photos from the night, and head over to our Facebook page to see the whole lot!

Wonderful One Aldwych

On Wednesday, we were honoured to be invited to the very glamorous One Aldwych for a very special event. The One Vintage Evening was open to only a select few, and the aim was to launch their new Martini Movies experience, which offers film and food fans the opportunity to watch a private screening of a carefully-chosen film with a Grey Goose Martini in hand, popcorn included… plus a three-course meal in the Axis or Indigo restaurants at the hotel. Glorious. Alongside our friends Katie Chutzpah, Red Legs in Soho, Shona Heyday and Tuppence Ha’penny, we were treated to absolutely amazing canapés and One Negronis, which just happens to be the chosen cocktail of...
