Taking a break from our usual lockdown recommendations, this week we are celebrating the nation's new favourite pastime - sitting in parks. We have info on where you can find toilets in London's parks and we couldn't resist throwing in a few summery album recommendations for good measure! Also, we have new shows from Norwegian rock band Kvelertak and the writers of everyone's favourite Christmas song, Slade. Don't forget to scroll to the bottom for our weekly merch giveaway!

In order to save yourself from those desperate power walks home from the park, we recommend that you use this interactive map of all the open public toilets in the UK!
Also, we know that you wouldn't dream of sitting in the park without a soundtrack. So, here are some summery album recommendations for you:

Slade
New Show
Fri 04 Dec
Without doubt one of the most exciting bands to come out of Great Britain in the past 50 years. With their unique blend of perfect pop-rock'n'roll, outrageous flamboyance and pure fun, and no less than 23 Top-20 singles of which 6 were No-1 smash hits, Slade have become a firm favourite in the hearts of pop fans all over the world.
Glastonbury Experience

Sadly, Glastonbury Festival has been cancelled this year for obvious reasons. However, the BBC are attempting to fill the empty space in our hearts and minds by streaming highlight sets from previous years. These are our essential viewing recommendations:
Radiohead - 23:30, 25 Jun Janelle Monáe - 12:00, 27 June Michael Kiwanuka - 11:00, 28 June David Bowie - 21:30, 28 June Stormzy - 18:30, 29 June
