Last weekend we were excited to visit the British Motor Museum near Banbury which was fantastic. We have never been before and hadn’t even heard of it until very recently but what a great day out! There was so much to see and it was so big, I was amazed we hadn’t found it sooner. This weekend we are having a rest from review visits and are spending some time with family instead. The kids love having a chilled out day at Nanny’s house and so do we. She cooks the best meals! If you are looking for some entertainment this weekend 3rd-4th Feb have a look at the events below or check out our days out reviews here for more inspiration.
