Good morning, Swansea! This is the Swansea Scoop. The local newsletter that’s like finding the end of the Sellotape straight away 😊
In this week’s Swansea Scoop:
🎯 A Night At the Darts!
😂 Two live comedy shows!
❤️ Valentine’s at the Zoo!
… and tons more!
We did it! After approximately 4,634 days, January is over and we can finally leave the month of dark afternoons and forgotten gym memberships behind us.
February in Swansea starts with plenty of chances to grab your friends and have some fun - from darts and comedy, to quizzes, discos, and family-friendly events.
Whatever you’re up to, have a good one and I’ll catch you on Wednesday!
Andrew.
P.S. We passed over 5,000 subscribers this week! Thank you all for reading and sharing the Swansea Scoop! 😊
