Another varied week ahead in St Ives on the entertainment front.

After the gig you can move upstairs to IsoBar Is Dead (IBID) for local DJ Audio Pressure.

There appears to be very little going on on Sunday.
Suggested itinerary:
Go to the church of your choice (no shortage in St Ives).
Head down the Harbour.
Grab a quick deep fried Mars Bar for lunch from Moby's.
Get a table outside The Sloop and proceed to get slowly and pleasantly drunk (please enjoy your drink responsibly).
Doner kebab from Lulus on Tregenna.
Head home in time to catch Wife Swap then Big Brother on Channel 4.
