I got a ticket for while I was down in London to see Adele so went along to browse the archives, and huge gallery of Vogue photography the past year. It was the 100th Anniversary of British Vogue this year, and there was an exhibition of all the covers at the National Portrait Gallery throughout Spring. Her voice is an absolute force and it’s better live than you could possibly imagine. A totally different type of show to Beyonce obviously, but absolutely incredible. I nabbed three tickets and went with Nige and Viv down to London in March to see her perform at the O2. She was incredible, it was an amazing show and despite the horrendous transport to and from the stadium and three hour trek home it was 100% worth it.Īdele obviously was in huge demand this year, and between three of us I think we had phones, ipads and computers all refreshing in the ticket queue. I even went to Sunderland to see her – somewhere I always said I wouldn’t go, but if anyone is going to get me there then it’s Beyonce. Two of my favourite singers and I’d always missed out on Beyonce tickets in the past so was so happy to get them for her Formation Tour this year. On the Saturday we made our way to Murrayfield where we saw England beat Scotland. In fact every time I go to Edinburgh it’s the same – does it ever get sunny? It didn’t spoil the trip at all though, we stayed in the Malmaison which is actually in Leith just ten minutes outside the centre. In February we made the road trip up there, under bleak grey skies which to be honest didn’t lift the whole weekend. Ideally I would have gone to Twickenham, but tickets were sold out quickly and Edinburgh is obviously a lot closer and easier to get to. This year we got tickets to Scotland v England at Murrayfield, and tied it in to a weekend trip up to Edinburgh. While football has always been my favourite sport I do enjoy watching England rugby and especially the Six Nations. If I can just get all sentimental for a brief moment I do think all the bad stuff makes you appreciate the good stuff even more and when I actually stop and think about everything I’ve done this year I absolutely can’t complain. ![]() 2016 has been shite for the world in general hasn’t it, and I actually feel a little bit guilty for saying this but despite some pretty horrific worldwide issues, on a personal level I’ve had a bloody good year.
