Funky Friday or theatre on Saturday, you can find everything in our new What's On!

This working week has been super short and the weather super beautiful! I am planning to stay out most of the weekend, though I have promised myself I'll go to the cinema with one of my friends. We are planning to watch Batman vs. Superman, that is apparently really bad, but lets see. Anything for friends, isn't it?
If you are not sure what to do in your free time and need some inspiration, well I have got the answer for you - our new What's On!
Gwdihŵ Café Bar seems to know how to have a good time and you can start the weekend in style with a night full of funk. Just in case the weather gets worse come along to the Chapter Arts Centre for a drink or even to watch an interactive theatre show Flossy and Boo's Curiosity Shop. If you get hungry after the theatre we would recommend you to try one of the restaurants on Cowbridge Road, around Peartree Languages, for example the great Italian bistro, Calabrisella, or Indian street food in Chai Street (where I am actually going for lunch on Sunday). 
One way or another, it is all up to you and I wish you a lovely weekend full of sun and fun!
Enjoy!
