We hear a lot about the ‘winter blues’ at this time of year don’t we? The sunshine’s sparse, the wind cuts like a knife and it’s no longer acceptable to consume mince pies and mulled wine *sigh*. Fear not booklovers, we have a few mood-boosting suggestions for you…
- Cosy up in an armchair with a good read (maybe make some headway on the pile of books purchased at last year’s festival!)
- A bracing walk along Felixstowe prom. Nothing like a blast of sea air to blow away the cobwebs.
- Purchase your tickets for our MINI MARCH FESTIVAL!
That’s right, tickets for our day of events at The Orwell Hotel on Sunday 5th March have now gone on sale. Simply follow the links below or visit our programme page to acquire yours…
