Events in York November 2009 – What’s on in York and North Yorkshire

estherrosie — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 15:00:12 +0000

What’s on in York and North Yorkshire this Autumn? York’s November Event Calendar is filled with reminders that the new school year is well under way the end of the calendar year is nigh!

I just purchased a few treats for Christmas in my monthly shop in the hope that I can resist munching on Christmas biscuits and chocolates destined for the after dinner slump; and that they will still be in their ’special hiding place’ come the 25th December. This is a first time technique for me so let’s see if it works!

So what can we find to do in our ’spare’ time during November in York? If you would like your event or venue’s link here just pop it in the comments box for me at the end of the page or email to Esther at support@directoryofyork.net .
