Free sessions of craft workshops at John Lewis
Here is your chance to join in at the free craft workshops for this festive season, being hosted by John Lewis, daily until 27 December, Sunday. The free workshops run from 12:00pm to 2:00pm and is cuddled at a space in the haberdashery department of John Lewis. The workspace is so pleasant, informal and cosy, amidst shelves of bright silk and colourful sewing machines. The girls at the department store are on hand to help any amateur crafter. At their capable hands, all kinds of ideas, from fuzzy felt faces to oversized advent calenders, nothing is too difficult to be created. It would be inspiring experience to any creative participant in this haberdashery department, filled with twinkling things in truckles. The free workshops for all this merry craft-making and hanging decorations are held as drop-in sessions, so it’s easy to join in at their stores. Anyone can bring along a friend too and make all those creative gifts for this festive season.
Weekend of free rock music at the Wheatsheaf
The Wheatsheaf in Leighton Buzzard (Bedfordshire) will be hosting on two days over the weekend, two acts of popular rock music. The popular rock band Southside Jimmy will return on Friday (11 December) to delight the crowd at the Wheatsheaf and with always great support. Jimmy and band is now based in Milton Keynes. Their playlist has great music from Stones, U2, Foo Fighters, Sterophonies and also Red Hot Chillies. Jimmy’s self-penned original numbers will also be played, including Fool and Garden. Jimmy will be on vocals and guitar, with Keef too on guitar and vocals. Jez will be on bass and at the drums will be Big Dog.
On Saturday (12 December) night’s rock music show, we will see V8 in their act. The rock and heavy metal cover band will travel up from Coventry to present their act. Known for their appearance at bike rallies, they were formed in the late 1980s. Their name is inspired by a Ford Capri engine. Influenced by Gun & Ross and by Def Lepard, their playlist contains Judas Priest, ZZ Top, AC/DC and Metallica. Dave Cowan will be on vocals and guitar with Mark Patton on vocals and lead guitar and the bass guitar with Christian Pluska. Chaz Pullen will be on drums.
