Just a short blog post to wish Memoirs of a Metro Girl readers a Merry Christmas. Hope you get to spend time with your loved ones and ignoring your diet for a few days and enjoying some good food and drink.

This year, I am taking the rare step to actually leave London for Christmas. It will be strange as I always look forward to the city being so quiet after the mass exodus – this year I will be part of said exodus.

To those people staying in London for the festive period – or perhaps you’re a visitor coming to the capital for Christmas – here’s a few ideas of what’s on around town. Of course, most things are closed on Christmas Day.

 – Visit the Winterfest light festival at Wembley Park.

 – Check out the last few weeks of Olafur Eliasson’s interactive art exhibition @ Tate Modern.

 – Follow the Snowman sculpture trail in London Bridge.

 – Watch a festive film on ice at Big Screen on Ice at QUEENS.

 – Enjoy the contemporary art at the Sculpture in the City exhibition in the City of London.

 – Go skating on one of London’s outdoor ice rinks.

 – Find out where London’s festive terraces, pop-ups and Christmas cocktails are.

 – Check out one of London’s pantomimes, ballets and Christmas shows.

Wishing all readers of Memoirs of a Metro Girl a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

See you on the other side of the decade!
