Forget lazing about watching television, you want to get out on the road and do something memorable this month. Here are a few suggestions… The Point - Village On Ice Christmas might be over but that doesn't mean you can't still enjoy some festive activities. Open until 11 January a trip to The Point Village On Ice (tickets from €10) is a great way to get the New Year off to a good start. As well as the ice rink, you can also enjoy the funfair and a piping hot chocolate and treats in the rink-side café.
