Question of the week: “The Christmas crunch is just around the corner! Where do you like to do most of your Christmas shopping?” "Considering my lack of patience when it comes to shopping, I'd recommend any place that is not crowded, offers great deals either because the stores are generally affordable or have items on sale and, lastly, there must be loads of eateries around so I can look forward to a reward after a day full of laborious shopping. Since no such place exists in London, I would suggest compromising your shopping times and go to Oxford St, but instead of pushing through the crowds on a Saturday morning, go on the last opening hours of a Monday or Thursday night, say between 7.30pm-9pm. Oxford Street can actually be very pleasant this time of year, as long as you miss the surge of crowds, where you can feel the spirit of the season through random choirs, blinking lights, and decorations absolutely everywhere."- Christina
