Issue 40...out now!
The white stuff
When we started to plan this issue we had the white stuff firmly in mind - but what we’d envisaged was yards and yards of bridal tulle - not SNOW. Having said that, Cardiff has looked so incredibly romantic these past few weeks that we wouldn’t be surprised to hear there had been a flood of marriage proposals, in which case our wedding themed issue could not be more timely. On page 22 we look at some of the best ways to tie the knot in the ’Diff, while our shopping special looks at rings and things (page 44).
We also look at ways to eat yourself into a healthy and beautiful 2010 (page 34), take a look at the way your homes are likely to look this spring (52) and round up the best arts and events to get you through the winter.
There’ll be daffodils poking up in Bute Gardens before you know it.
