Welcome back to another weekend! As of yesterday I am another year older and (potentially) wiser! Hence I am EXTRA qualified to tell you what to do the next couple of days! There’s lots on the agenda, from a dream interpretation course to Tinder Live to a Bowie tribute dance party (our GIF theme), so get ready to hear about all of that momentarily! BUT FIRST!
