Travel Plans 2018 – Italy
One of the most noticeable things about Christmas is just how quickly the adverts change on the television. From being wall to wall toys and Santa, it is almost like, on the stroke of Midnight on Christmas Eve, Christmas is actually forgotten and the commercial breaks become one long travelogue.

The World’s biggest panto was back in town, and this year the story was that of Peter Pan, Christmas in Neverland.
