Christmas shopping

We probably all moan about it.
The cost, the faffing about, what to buy, how it seems to be never ending, the horrendous parking, traffic jams and the crowds.
But there's something magical about the lead up to Christmas.
Mr O and I went into the Oracle in Reading today for a wander around the shops, and a gingerbread latte in Waterstone's coffee shop.
It's not the first time I've been Christmas shopping this year and it won't be the last - and between you and me, I love it all!
