is one of those places I notice as I sit on the top deck of a double-decker bus.
Occasionally I’ll see artists in the gallery forecourt working and it’s always piqued my curiosity, so today I thought, ‘why not go in’. I’m glad I did.

My mates Em and Mel have been going to Vitality for years and say they love it, so this year I joined them, Em’s daughter A and two more mates.
Now, I’m a ‘low maintenance’ kind of gal, and I’ve declared 2102 the year of Fiona (yes I’m Fiona♥). This being my year I’ve decided to ‘up’ my maintenance level and be more ‘girly’.

At college, studying for my diploma and A level Art it was a 10 minute walk away at the bottom of Brook Road. A few years later I took my niece to the park when she still had training wheels on her bike.
