Christmas is in the air...

What can you do before Christmas? Maybe you feel very Christmasy with all the carols, theatre plays and films about Christmas.
Polar Express became a Christmas classic and it can be even better if you can watch it on a big screen. Chapter Arts Centre has decided to put this film into their pre-Christmas festivities and you can book your tickets now. So grab your friends, children or partners and believe once again in Santa Claus!
If you would like to have more grown up fun or Christmas preparation, why not go to Porter's for their famous Bandaoke and you even can get a free bottle of wine if your performance is stunning!
If you want to feel the real Christmas atmosphere, visit the Winter Wonderland in Cardiff. Have a ride on the Snow Wheel, visit the fun house or try the winter slide. As I have only been on the Snow Wheel, I recommend you go there in the evening, when the whole of Cardiff is lit up and looks very very Christmasy, with the markets as well.
If you have not bought your presents yet, do not worry, you still have some time and the shops are open till late in the evenings, but please do not forget, that Christmas is about being with people that you love.
Enjoy!
