With the Winter weather well and truly with us (a tried and tested tongue twister – but absolutely true!), I’ve started looking for activities that take place inside to inspire and entertain. Places like museums and art galleries are perfect for this time of year, as are antique stores and cosy pubs. Although the sun may not be warming us all, its absence does make us look elsewhere for interest, and really, is that such a bad thing? It’s a great opportunity to take in some culture that you may have previously shunned in favour of a picnic on a beautiful shiny day.
What are you planning this weekend? Some sightseeing or staying in? How about viewing our fab Friday Roundup to kick it all off? Enjoy!
