Three things you won't want to miss in London this Thursday

1. Thinking about going vegan in 2018? Ease yourself in with a trip to the Festive Vegan Deli at Camden Market today from noon. Feast throughout the day and share in the meat-free cheer. Tofurky isn’t so bad, promise.

2. Today is the Winter Solstice, so make it count on a twilight storytelling session in Battersea with professional yarn-spinner Vanessa Woolf. ‘Dark Waters: Midwinter Storytelling Walk’ is free, but you'll need to register in advance. 

3. Head to Borough Market this evening for some Late Night Christmas Shopping. Get fancy ingredients, a warmed cup of mulled wine and do your food shop in style surrounded by the Borough Christmas decorations.
