Free evenings sorted…
The clocks go forward (definitely not back) this weekend, which means you’re going to have an extra hour of daylight in the evenings to go out and about and do some activities.
But failing that, you can sit inside and soak in some Netflix while rummaging your way through a family sized pack of crisps… all by yourself.
