Welcome back to the blog! Last week was packed with family fun, delicious food, birthday celebrations, and more Manchester-based adventures that we can’t wait to share with you.
🎳 Bowling, Mini Golf & Mum’s Birthday Fun
On Tuesday, we celebrated my mum's birthday with a belated day out at King Pins in Trafford Palazzo. We played a hilarious round of bowling (spoiler alert: I came last and Mum won!) followed by mini golf — same result, but loads of laughs! We grabbed a quick lunch at KFC before I dashed off to do the school run.
🎭 A Knight's Tale at the Manchester Opera House
Thursday brought a theatre-filled afternoon! I headed into Manchester to catch A Knight's Tale at the Opera House for the matinee performance. I had a front-row seat and enjoyed the show even more the second time around! My parents came too (though we weren’t sat together) and loved it. Later that evening, Lawrence caught the evening show for his first viewing — he thought it was a great, a faithful adaptation of the film!
🧵 Lunch at Stitch Café & Museum Fun
Saturday was all about family time! We took the tram into Manchester and had lunch at the new Stitch Café inside Primark. It was super cute and delicious — Alice, Leo & myself had ham and cheese toasties while Lawrence tried the Kalua Pork Hawaiian grilled cheese. Lawrence and I got a slice of passionfruit & lime cake along with a mango lemonade, and The kids got some adorable Stitch-themed treats.
After lunch, we headed to the Science and Industry Museum where Alice and Leo had a blast exploring the experiment zone. It’s such a brilliant space for kids to learn while having fun.
