But I knew that it was a "now or never" situation, so I practiced some yogic breathing before heading in. :) And once I was inside, it wasn't really that bad at all - staff were actually very helpful and nice (which isn't always the case there - a bit hit and miss!).Angloyankophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798135990583648390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-37364930124482349372014-12-08T09:35:25.875+00:002014-12-08T09:35:25.875+00:00Bahahaha indeed! :) I was surprised at how many gi...Bahahaha indeed! :) I was surprised at how many gifts I found at Selfridges ... you can never go wrong in their Food Hall!Angloyankophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798135990583648390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-83929205843272333982014-12-06T22:06:40.011+00:002014-12-06T22:06:40.011+00:00I really need to get over there.

(Someone you don't want in your life, that's who.) I have been stuck for Xmas gift ideas. I think I'll brave Selfridges and try my luck!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05288533010611643097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-4481046230152404342014-12-05T21:36:37.982+00:002014-12-05T21:36:37.982+00:00If you can't persuade them to see the film, pe...If you can't persuade them to see the film, perhaps you'll have more luck if you suggest a Bear Hunt.

Actually, my plan last night was to go to Liberty, but after I left Monica Vinader on South Molton Street, I knew it was a "now or never" situation with the Nutella. But I'm so glad I went!<br /><br />I just ordered a Paddington Bear framed print for my dad's birthday. :) The original drawings by Peggy Fortnum are just so, so sweet.Angloyankophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798135990583648390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743876470050160495.post-51088591257323292582014-12-05T13:48:14.761+00:002014-12-05T13:48:14.761+00:00OMG thank you so much for facing the crowds for th...OMG thank you so much for facing the crowds for the present of a lifetime !!!
