Diaries out, ladybugs. Here are my top picks for the week ahead.
If you have any events you’d like me to include in next week’s ‘Dear diary’ post, please email me any info, including links. Thank you x
Skate
I LOVE SKATING! I’m certain I’m one pirouette away from the Bolero. And/or crutches. There will be a few pop-up ice rinks appearing all over London on the run up to Christmas, but here are the three already open this week.
Tower of London
Natural History Museum
Canary Wharf
Sew
Well hurruh for Arianna Cadwallader, a super duper sewer extraordinaire, who has set up ‘Saturday Sewing Session’, to allow wannabe ace sewers like me (Poppy) and you (you) to learn from the experts. Booking is essential, so if you want that cushion cover done by Christmas you’d better give them a call pronto.
Cost: Varies
Poetry
Hammer and Tongue
“The best live poetry is to be found at The hammer and Tongue Slams”
Not sure what to add to that – sounds pretty good to me and The Green Note is one of my favourite haunts in London. Get there early to nab yourself a seat.
When: Mon, 12th Nov, 7-11pm
Where: Green Note, 106 Parkway, Camden, NW1 7AN
Cost: £5
Comedy
Banana Cabaret
Here lies a comedy club, which has seen the likes of Eddie Izzard, Jack Dee, Catherine Tate and Rob Brydon tread its boards. And you can go and laugh your socks off for the grand sum of £3. Hip pip!
When: Fri 16th Nov, 7.30pm
Where: The Bedford, 77 Bedford Hill, Balham, SW12 9HD
Cost: £3
Print
Print Club London
Learn how to screenprint your own design and go through the whole process, from digital design through to pulling the squeegee. (Yes, squeegee).
When: Sat, 17th Nov, 11am – 4pm
Where: Print Club London, Unit 3, Millers Avenue, Dalston, E8 2DS
Cost: £37.50
