Style Focus – Adele
I don’t mind admitting that I’m a little obsessed with Adele at the moment. Hello is an absolute belter of a song, one I keep singing in my kitchen. (Well, at least attempting to sing, I’m more Oh! hell than Adele.) She’s breaking records left, right and centre, and seems to be totally comfortable in her own skin.

A preview of the House of Fraser #HHHO Grotto in Birmingham
Saturday 28th November will see this year’s launch of the most beautiful grotto in Birmingham. The House of Fraser grotto is truly beautiful, a veritable Winter wonderland that mixes the joy of reindeer’s, snow and Santa with a look back to the traditional shops and houses of the Dicken’s ‘A Christmas Carol’ era. The Grotto, once again, raises much needed funds for the Harry Moseley Charity, Help Harry Help Others, and is sure to delight children and parents with its sheer festiveness.
