Fab article about a local gem, the wonderful @RivoliBallroom . I’ve always wanted to photograph in there. It is an amazing space. (Oh, and Jane is a local gem, too! 😉)
This was written last week about the one & only @RivoliBallroom Such a lovely long article by @TimeOutLondon with lots of discussion with family & staff who work there, looking back at the history/Club Montepulciano & LOTS more-check it out #OurBallroom timeout.com/london/things-to…

Stumbled across a lovely write up about the bookshop in @TimeOutLondon from last week. Great to be compared to the iconic Shakespeare and Co. I hope we continue to “ooze literary magic” 💫 timeout.com/london/shopping/…

When I was a kid London was full of junk shops but now they're massively struggling as rents rise and people sell their own stuff online - I loved chatting to their embattled, eccentric proprietors for this piece timeout.com/london/news/how-…

Something uplifting for your Friday: an edited extract of me on my favourite love song for @StylistMagazine and the people it takes me to ❤️ This was probably my favourite chapter to write out of all of them! stylist.co.uk/books/love-son…

When @TfL finally creates a cross South London bus route (ideally Tooting- Clapham- Brixton- Peckham- Lewisham- Catford) then families will be reunited, romances rekindled, feral foxes made tame

Thank you @Alex0Sims @StylistMagazine for raising awareness of this vital topic. A week ago the government cut UC by £20 a week, it's women who are feeling the pinch of this at a time when the cost of living is rapidly increasing. stylist.co.uk/news/politics/…

Hello all! Scary tweet, but we need to tell you that our funds are very low and without support, it looks unlikely that we can pay any more writers for a while after September. If you want to support our award-shortlisted publication, please consider it! aureliamagazine.com/support/
Are you totally uninterested in being the 'main character'? Do you generally prefer not to be the centre of attention? Is the idea of romanticising your life totally unappealing to you? I want to speak to you for a piece I'm working on! Plz slide into my DMs ♥️

This week Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre will close forever — a loss for local heritage, culture and small business 💔. 📸: Architect surveys plans, 1963 • Shopping Centre 1966 • The iconic statue taking pride of place in the Shopping Centre • Pink repaint, 1993.
