A festive frame of mind I don't know about you but I am finding it increasingly difficult to focus on the everyday 9-5 and constant battle with my inbox. My mind is constantly clouded by images of white sand beaches, glittering blue water and refreshing cocktails. Luckily for most, there are only a few more slog days left before festive feverish dreams can become a reality. To help get you into the holiday frame of mind we bring you a newsletter packed with getaway options such as the Sanbona Explorer Camp, the newly revamped Sun City, and the Nelson Mandela Bay area, while Nina Timm tantalises taste buds with her Christmas Cherry Chicken recipe. And this just in: The Biebs is back in SA next year. Prepare for Bieber fever! Check all the ticket info here. We've also got three brand new comps to help usher in the holiday season; tickets to the Corona Sunset Festival in Clifton, MCQP: The Musical, and the Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concert featuring Prime Circle are up for grabs!
