The accessory that's like a little mini shoe costume, how could we not approve?! A way to personalise the soles of your high heeled shoes on a budget. Set up and run by very talented performer Charlotte King, she is a true entrepeneur!

MILKSHAKE:
zazU
Parallel universe comedy group about a whole world with a small town mentality. Very good friends of Tea Break (let's just say we have some things in common...) they are silly, surreal and have created a world that can be highly addictive.
