Traffic Free Shopping Day...

is still my idea of a nightmare! ok so the roads are closed on Oxford St and Regents St this weekend big woop- all that means is hundreds more people that are normally sensible and stay away from the hectic elbow pushing on the weekend decide it would be a perfect day to do their Christmas shopping...meaning that people traffic more than doubles- no thanks.

For those that work in Central I think the idea of spending a weekend fighting for room to walk just seems awful- stay at home, relax and shop online its 2010!

However today I had no choice but to venture into the chaos as I was working for a client - with the other girls from my office and therefore set off bright and early oh and obviously freezing...I am not going to lie and say I was thrilled about working but I will admit that on arriving to fairly calm Oxford st and seeing the live models in the windows, the 20% off every store, the marching band singing carols, grown men dressed an elves and giant candy canes I was slightly cheered up!

The traffic free shopping day is I am sure a fun family day out and even though its not my cup of tea its definitely made me feel festive!!!

Role on Christmas - I even have an app on my iphone that's a virtual countdown and advent calendar!! hehe
