One thing I’ve always loved is when a home-grown local business finds its wings. Muralee Govindasamy has done just that. From the beginnings on Orwell Road, the journey began with the Brook Hotel in 2002, Muralee then went under the wing of the Best Western franchise, and now, having gone independent, his beautiful Hotel Coco has truly taken flight with the almighty Marco Pierre White presence, under its roof!

I have wanted to see the Northern Lights for many years and have been down to Felixstowe Ferry several times. I have stood in the dark by myself getting cold with not much success, although I did get a hint of pink once.

Being a big fan of old school funk, soul, R&B, I already had a soft spot for this show. But a few days ago, my interview with Ryan (performing as Lionel) pushed it a little further, and last night’s show just took it to another level. My love for Lionel and Diana has well and truly been reborn!
