[Ad- gifted experience] We’ve been to a lot of pantomimes over the last few years! They seem like such a classic, Christmastime activity and here we love seasonal events. Dann and I, however, have never been to an adult’s only panto. Pantomimes are known for their cheeky humor and innuendos, however, this was a few steps beyond that. Instead of cheeky humor, it was full of crude jokes, audience participation, and some of the classic panto moments that you’d expect. Jack and the Beanstalk at the King’s Head Theatre does have a child-friendly version as well, but this was not it!

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I have driven some boats before, primarily during our yearly holiday, however we have not tried out GoBoat before right on Canary Wharf!

If you aren’t familiar, Mind is a charity that’s all to do with Mental Health. They raise awareness about mental health stigma, support people living with mental health problems and fight for governmental change for mental health services, which is all fantastic.

[Ad- gifted experience] When it comes to Christmas magic, one of the things that most people do is visit Santa! We have seen Santa at Winter Wonderland, Legoland and even at a little light walk display. but we haven’t really gone to a place that’s only for meeting Santa. Woolwich Works is hosting a bunch of different Christmas themed activities, from a small Christmas market outside the venue on the weekends, to Christmas performances, and of course there is an option to meet Santa himself.
