Things To Do This Week.

Dance The Slurp.

Depending on the acoustics of a particular location, the same singer singing the same song will sound completely different. A simple change of venue from a music hall to a construction site can immediately remove all majesty from a performance. Never has this phenomenon been so clearly illustrated than in this cleverly edited video.

The same thing applies to your week as a whole, we think. Your outlook will vary greatly this week depending on where you choose to spend it. Making the most of your next seven days will take some careful consideration; fortunately, that's something we can help with.
