Park your fears at the door as you pass through security and scale number 20 Fenchurch Street to reach Sky Garden, a play palace in the sky. This winter they’ve partnered with Moët & Chandon to host a pop-up offering winter cocktails, vin chauds, alpine toasties, token tartan embellishments – and champagne, of course. On the weekends, DJs play from 9pm and Sky Pod Bar tables can be booked for those who shudder at the thought of a walk-in. SkyGarden
Like so many questionable concepts, it’s damn good fun once you loosen the tie. Throughout January you can rent a “Hot Tug” and sail along a Central London canal in the World’s first floating hot tub. Unwind, semi-naked, as you float for 75 minutes in your vessel, with a captain to make sure you make it back to shore. A tub fits 7 people @ £220. Jaunty sailor hats and Hefner robes are optional but can be purchased. Rent a Hot Tug
