I went up to London with Thing2. We had planned to "do" the Sales.
We got out at Pic Circus. I got a coat in Aquascutum (for Mum ... saved �200) and a skirt for Thing1 (saved �100).
Then we went over the road to Austin Reed and I bought Daddy some shirts.
Thing2 got some stuff in Jaeger.
Then we looked at the crowds blocking the way up to Oxford Street, and thought ... sod that. So we spent the rest of the afternoon in Topo Gigio, feeding our faces.
Bottom line ... I saved quite a bit, but didn't get anything for me.

But we had a jolly Italian meal and a fab old chin wag.
