A weekend in London.
Have been working at an Accountants in Oxford Circus London, the main shopping area and the place to be. The biggest department stores you have ever seen and some great bargains to be found. Lunch time I walk around dreaming of clothes I only wish I could afford and people everywhere!! I am a PA for a accounts department for 3 people the office is 7 stories and is the 1 company and they have about 6 companies in London and all across the world.
Friday finished, get home finally after battling through the crowds and tube stations Friday night fever everywhere! Finally get home and have some drinks and a good chat and laugh ready for the next day of sight seeing in London, fingers crossed it’s a nice sunny day….
