Pig out in Bologna
November in the Emilia-Romagna region means
salami and lots of it. Pig butchers battle it out in the
November Porc competition to have the biggest,
longest and heaviest specimens (don't snigger). The
good news? You get to eat them. novemberporc.it

Swedish House
Mafia, Stockholm
As part of their final
ever tour before they
split up, the electro
band reconnect with
their homeland. Mega.
Lawrence of Arabia –UK release
A 50th-anniversary, fully restored version of the classic desert
flick, featuring Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif returns to the
big screen in all its epic, sand-filled glory. We're loving the
crazy horse riding and intense (or should that be in-tents?!)
acting. It's certainly looking pretty good for its age. But then it
has had work.
Kiloshop, Paris
This store in the
Marais brings a new
concept to vintage
shopping – buy by
weight. We love this:
silk weighs less than
cotton!
