Wooooh! It's summertime! How do we know? Because everyone is wearing sunglasses, the lads are in their shorts, ladies in their skirts and vest tops, and everyone is smiling. And the weather isn't the only thing to be happy about this week, just look at what's going on in the area's arts and ents venues... It's enough to make you shun the sun for the great indoors...
