Tea and cookie at Starbucks, Kings Road after an hour at Kings Road Sporting Club, i.e. the shop that stocks all yoga outfit brands you may want.
Christmas lights at Regent Street. Followed by shopping at Calvin Klein and COS.
Liberty. Not one of my usual haunts, but the entrance was to welcoming not to enter and their stationery makes you want to write letters and cards to everybody you know.
Carnaby Street, which was still being developed when I first moved to London. The reason I know that is because in my accounting days my favourite client was a property investment company specialising in West End locations and Carnaby Street was one of their hot spots. From a street of nothingness, it's now sparkling and trendy.
My walk went from Carnaby Street towards Covent Garden. By mistake (!) I ended up on Oxford Street for a moment. How this street ever became so popular among tourists beats me. Croweded with people and traffic, all those cheap shops filled with rubbish and fried junk food in every corner. Ugh.
Relief when I got back on track and made it to Covent Garden and St Martin's Courtyard.
And this is just the beginning of my weekend. Did I say I love London?
