Shopping in London

We headed into town again to see the shops. It was quite a different scene to the night before. None of the revealing attire of the women out pubbing and clubbing; no people dressed for the theatre; no hen's parties. I managed to spend 4 hours in two shops - a small one with a reasonable military section and then Foyles, which is large and has a great military section. J, meanwhile, managed to walk from one end of Oxford St to the other and back again. She had rather tired feet by then, and I had a sore back from the awkward reading position one has in a bookstore. (We're getting old you know...) We decided to check out the movies but there wasn't a great selection so we headed back to the hostel again. There we watched 4 episodes of Everyone Loves Raymond back to back. Ho hum.

Neither of us got a good sleep due to various aches and pains, and were up earlier than planned. Hence we have to kill time before the IWM opens. J has gone for a stroll in the sun, while I am here in an Internet Cafe. That sums us up pretty well doesn't it? 8-)

See y'all.

Who said men can't shop! Did you buy anything (if not you've finally found your feminine side. Love the pics.
