Beautiful Brighton Beach…
Good Documentary
The Greatest Night In Pop
This Netflix docu, I’d been put off by the artwork. The cover looked a bit naff and wasn’t speaking to me, but I started watching it this week and really enjoyed!
Good Music
Edits when they’re good, are an art form.
Good Restaurants
So many restaurants in Kings Cross, but yet so little choice it sometimes feels. I find a lot of the Coal Drops Yard options are really expensive and all ‘small plates’ which tend to be rubbish for vegetarians, as you can pay £40 for a side of brocolli and a side of celeriac. SO, this week in Kings Cross, I ate at:
Ekichai (yummy curry): https://www.ekachai.co.uk/locations/kings-cross/
Nonos (Greek): https://www.nonos.co.uk/
Both delish and more low key in vibe.
Good Habit
Sending a reach out email on your phone when you’re on the move.
I always make these a bigger deal than they need to be, overthinking the tone, links etc etc, and then they never get sent.
Good News
I thought this story of two women forming a “grandparent”/”child” relationship was very sweet. So simple and make such a difference to both of their lives.
Heading to Ibiza on Tuesday. Who’s about?xx
Also, my new podcast ‘Building in the Open’ launched this week. Check out the first 4x episodes on Spotify.
That's all homies see you next time x

Thanks for the King's Cross food tips! There's a little business group I've met there, and we were wandering around trying to find somewhere, mainly for a coffee but good to have these in mind for next time.
