Nightjar, Casita, The Book Club and The Whistling Shop Cocktail Bar Review

As much as I like trying out new cocktails, half of the fun is finding new and quirky places to try them.

I've recently migrated from match.com and was trying out this new dating website called Doingsomething www.doingsomething.co.uk.  Doingsomething is based on a fantastic premise of providing novel and interesting date ideas so that the focus isn't on being stressed making a good first impression but the joy of doing something fun.  So this was my first date with a guy from it who seemed to have the impression I was this daredevil (crazy to assume that from my photos of paragliding, snowmobiling and climbing up a 70ft mast...).

Cocktails (and tea) at 140 Park Lane London

There are, I would say, 6 people on this earth who truly know what I'm like and what I like and my friend Sam is one of them.  That's why she knew to email me when she saw a Groupon deal for a gin cocktail and afternoon tea.
