The film will loop until 10pm, so grab a cocktail and some food and settle in for a nightmare that seemingly never ends.

1) http://www.chocolatefactoryartists.co.uk/

Don’t get too excited now (!) when you see the words ‘chocolate’ - is free & is interesting but is name of art studio not actual choc. – worth looking at if art is your thing (or one of them).!

The annual Open Studios is on Sat 14th & Sun 15th November 2009 from 12 noon to 6pm …… an opportunity to meet artists and designers ….

The studios are in what used to be two iconic chocolate factories.
