Burgers and the Big Screen: A day out in Brum

As it's the end of the academic year for students, it's always nice to go out and have fun with everyone before parting ways for summer.

On a few occasions now I've gone for a movie and burger in the centre of Birmingham, and all for around a tenner thanks to some handy vouchers. As students, we all like to save a bit of buck where we can!

I'm not sure if this is a national thing but on the back of the movie tickets from the Odeon New Street there's a "buy one burger or salad and get another for £1" offer for the Handmade Burger Co., valid for one month after screening. I'd only ever been once before to the Birmingham branch but remembered it being a damn good burger, so was more than happy to go and utilise the offer!

Valefest 2014 (w/ Little Dynamite)

On a drizzly Saturday, some friends and I donned wellies/disposable shoes and made our way down to The Vale for the annual Valefest, a festival organised and held by a team of University of Birmingham students to raise money for their chosen charities (this year was the turn of MacMillan and Trekstock). This year was also Valefest's 10th anniversary!
