OK, you probably have plans — it is Christmas on Sunday after all — but there is still plenty to do across West Cork this weekend.
There are lots of Christmas swims, a dance night in Leap, fun options for the family on St Stephen's Day and a new documentary on an Irish hero.

Christmas rave in Connolly's of Leap
A pre Christmas rave comes to Leap tonight in the form of G-Town Record's Don, otherwise known as Shampain. He will be joined on the night by DJ Supreme Arveene from the house duo ‘Bon Voyage’.
Also on decks on the night will be two of Cork's finest Emily Dunne and Ladrin, and young Cork DJ Taurean.
Tickets are €21.50 and likely to sell out so get yours now via the Connolly's website.
Sean Hales documentary
If you're planning on staying in on Christmas evening, a new documentary about Brigadier General Sean Hales will air on YouTube at 8pm.
This year marked the 100th anniversary of the assassination of the Bandon man, with the special documentary — made by Lar McCarthy and Brendan Hayes — receiving a great reception from family members when it was shown in the Clonakilty Park Cinema.
To view the documentary, search for 'A Family At War' on YouTube from 8pm on Sunday evening.
