Crazy times… so crazy that I haven’t really had a moment to sit down and put this list together properly. So, it’s going to be a quickie this time around – I blame the silly silly season!
Here goes, though – the pick of the weekend’s activities ahead, taken from the Mother City Living events calendar. Feel free to add your comments below if there’s something I’ve missed.
Earth Fair Christmas Market
Friday 11 December. 4pm-9pm. South Palms, Tokai.
Earth Fair Market will be hosting two extra Christmas Night markets on Friday 11thand Friday 18th December from 4pm-9pm.

Kloovenburg Christmas Market and Seasonal Summer Market Day
Saturday 12 December. 8.30am – 3pm. Kloovenburg Estate, Riebeek Kasteel.
A combo of Christmas crafts and fresh produce from the Riebeek Valley region Top that off with a killer view, and I’d say that’s a decent way to spend a day. (the details)
