Things to do this week: Psychic Readings, Christmas Baubles and a Rock ‘n’ Roll Santa Show!
Morning! Christmas is sneaking in early this week with sparkle, music and a touch of mystery. There’s a psychic night ready to spill the tea on your future, a craft workshop for homemade baubles that’ll actually make the tree look good, and a rock ‘n’ roll Christmas show that promises more laughs than the office party. Grab your coat, your curiosity, and maybe a mince pie, it’s all kicking off.
