Image: The Bamboo District Seems I can not keep away from B Town. 4th time this year. I think it is the short 45min journey on the train from Clapham Junction that does it. Anyyway, to continue a relatively new tradition (in it's second year now) the boy and I take one day out away from the busy streets of London leading up to Christmas and do some Christmas shopping there. Brighton is great for thrift and vintage finds, clothes that can be easily found in East London but with less tat. Also, what is even better is that you can get stuff around 20% cheaper (second hand wise) than in London. Whoop! Oh hello there! The day started out with The Boy being cheeky and telling me my hands looked dry, but then resulted in me getting a hand massage, yuss! Blue eyes. Brown eyes. Frooooty Don't let me go Boombox and Cassette tape? Hello 1990! Rudolph, who is your red friend we have here? SHOPPING "Which vintage black leather handbag should I get? So many to choose from!" BIG BOBBLE!!!! HeHeHe Action! I wonder if they are pretending it's summer in their film. Those elbows must be freezing! Hey there handsome. You want my number? Gutted for you if you have ever been taken here for a date... Gwan Grandpas with yo' bad selves. Bebe booties. From old to young... PM Pig. What? You are telling me Mexican Souvenirs aren't normally popular in Brighton? Strange. Fittie and Food. Double winnage! Poor tyke felt sleepy. TIme to go home!
