insideSUSSEX Magazine Issue 21 - November 2016 | Page 8

welcome

I always feel a bit sorry for November . Sandwiched between October – a month in which everyone gets excited about the first crunch of fallen leaves underfoot , not to mention Halloween – and December , the time of the year that brings Christmas excitement to fever pitch and during which everyone forgives the cold weather hoping for seasonal snow , it ’ s a month that can be easily overlooked .
But , here at insideSUSSEX , we ’ re big fans of November – once December arrives , Christmas is merely weeks away , so actually , November is a pinnacle month during which to get planning . If you ’ re having a Christmas party , head to p32 for our three-page guide on how to be the perfect host ; flip to p80 for our glorious ‘ Getaways ’ round up of Christmas markets across the UK and beyond ; if you ’ re wondering where you can see Santa across Sussex , we ’ ve got that covered from p70 ; and , if you ’ re curious as to what the county has planned by way of festive parties , fairs and festivals , you ’ ll find all you need to know on p29-31 .
As for what to do just for November ’ s sake – a month that cries out for cosy nights spent snuggled up on the sofa and warming , hearty meals – why not find time for a date night at home ? We ’ ve pulled together ideas to suit any sort of couple from p37 . Or , if you want to wrap up and head out for a comforting plate of Sunday fare , but aren ’ t sure where to go , we ’ ve compiled three pages of the best roasts in Sussex , which should help sway your decision ( p40 ).

Don ’ t forget to check out our first arts and entertainment charity profile on the brilliant ‘ Circus Project ’ on p16-17 , and head to p77 to find out why Worthing ’ s suddenly Sussex ’ s most sought after seaside town .
