So this is Christmas



MERRY CHRISTMAS Y'ALL!

I managed to get all my Christmas shopping done in one fell swoop. I wasn't expecting it, and it did indeed, take me by surprise! Ladies and Gentlemen, the secret? The Royal Exchange! It has EVERYTHING for your present buying needs.

1) It is not Oxford Circus- good enough.

2) It is not Oxford Circus- such a good point, is deserves two spaces.

3) It's main shoppers are city folk, who know what they want, when they want and DO NOT DAWDLE. Also meaning, that if you shop betwen 10-12 and then 2-4 there will be NO ONE around as they will be working away in their offices.

4) Agent Provocateur, Jo Malone, Smythson, Penhaligons, Laduree, and Paul A. Young: all staples in my shopping buying list.

5) It is a stones throw away from Cheapside- for Space NK, Paperchase, Daunt Books, Topshop, M&S, and Oliver Bonas! All great for stocking fillers! The only thing missing is a Wolford really.... And of course COS, but I am just being selfish now.

So now you know for next year! All hail The Royal Exchange!

Seasons greetings, have a wonderful Christmas!

I LOVE THE RAIN



The surprise weather today actually felt rather refreshing. I love British weather, believe it or not. It felt quite cleansing. Obviously I do not mean this literally, as rain water is clearly quite repulsive.

It kills me that, after about 30000000 years of crap weather, the transport systems still fail to cope with it. DELAYED DELAYED DELAYED. Yet it failed to phase me. I sat quite content on the train, stuck in a tunnel, feet sopping wet, coat three stone heavier with rain and dripping brolly. Winter is coming, which only means one thing, so is santa.

In the mean time I shall leave you with this...

And this...
