Text Santa!


This is a random post but I feel like it is valid.
Tonight on ITV is the show Text Santa which is a money raising show full of Christmas cheer. I personally sat watching with my mum and friend Joanne. The programme raises money for a number of charities these include:
Marie Curie Cancer
Whizz-Kids
Age UK
Anthony Nolan
Carers UK
Together For Short Lives

The charities all raise money for brilliant causes if you missed the show but would love to donate something no matter how small, it really is easy, the easiest and wat way (the way I chose) was to text Santa 70070 which donates £5.00. Other ways to donate include the ITV website and branches of Santander around the UK.

Winter Wonderland 2012


Tomorrow is the opening of this years Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, London. Me, Charlotte and Gemma travelled down to London for the day last Christmas and visited the Winter Wonderland, and it really was good. Hyde Park lierally get's transformed into a wonderland.
It boasts many attractions including a Circus, Fair Rides, Ice skating Rink, Santa Land and Angel's Christmas Market. Plus new for 2012 is the Magical Ice Kingdom, which looks like it will be worth a visit. The entrance is free into the park but some of the main attractions are payable and the Circus and Giant Wheel are being advised for people to prebook so they are not disappointed about missing out.
Hyde Park is easily accesible whilst your visiting London either by Tube, Bus or Taxi so it really is worth popping in and having  look around. Winter Wonderland Opens tomorrow 23rd November and is open right until 6th January 2013, plenty of time for you to go. We will be visiting once again this year on our day trip to London in December as we enjoyed it last year and it really does help lift your christmas spirit and get you in the mood. Here is a couple of pictures of it:
