Yipp that's right when heading into Harrods to shop you have too show real strong will power and know your limits cos bouncing the plastic to many times could see one working all through there Xmas holidays just recouping the extravagance.....
With that in mind the first couple of floors were a sightseeing venture...... Seeing what the "Other Half" may fill their homes with.....
The inside Xmas decorations started...
As soon we entered through the doors....
Passing by the....
Cosmetics section...... Some well groomed young men worked here.....
The Home furnishing department.....
Had a selection of Xmas Wreaths from about 500 quid each.....
In the Silver and Crystal department.....
An Aston Martin was anybody's for a Cool 50,000 Quid..... A couple of real ones for the same "Smakka's" would be better....
In the kitchen ware department these......
Sugars for your tea or coffee drink were appealing......
They come in packets, not many in each packet, priced from 8 to 20 quid....
Imagine having friends around for a "Brew".....
" How many sugars mate"?....
"3 please"....
Gulp........
Bloody hell you'd have to "Like them A lot".......
Onto the toy department.....
Stuffed animals of different breeds.....
A "Rhino" for about 1500 quid.....
Or the "Memory Bank" closer to the 2000 quid......
If the Kids have done well with their "A Levels", Then why not go "Not To Crazy" and buy them....
Battery electric Mercedes at 13,000 quid...
A Ferrari at closer to 30,000 quid.....
Or the "Ugliest" one of all....
A "Range Rover" for 40,000 quid..... Not Joking...... That's why B+,s don,t deserve reward...
OOHHH hears a B+ present.....
Pick a Peddle car from 2000 quid.....
Through Lego Land.....
Leonie wanted to walk over the "Tower Bridge"..... I said "careful you don't cut yourself on the surrounding glass cabinet"....
Got some funny looks......
Always gets her way.......
In the technology department I couldn't believe our eyes.......
Talk about "Free Publicity", like getting it out there man......
The latest Lap Tops for sale were running.......
The "FireflyNZ1" blog....... This one....
Here Toooo......
And......
Over here......Amazing and in Harrods...... Nice speakers by the way.....
Talking about.....
A set of wireless speakers..... Trendy As....... Bit large for a narrow boat though......
This Xmas decoration looked like....
A Large cake.... EEHHH.....
The centre of the store featured.....
The "Egyptian Escalator".....
After sorting the kids and the missus then the dogs need attention....
This Leopard skin and dyed hide.....
"Mini Sofa" 800 quid.... is affordable for a dog you don't love too much.......
But for a dog you do love too much then....
Gettmm on this 4 poster.... 2,000 quid... It'll "Pull" the Bitches".....
Passed by a couple more Xmas wreaths.....
Nice table setting if you've just won "LeMans 24HR".......
So after a couple of hours looking we decided to make a purchase of our own..
The "Staff" at Harrods are trained to perfection and they "Know" when a spender Is getting near their "Safe Limit" so a couple of discreet words like, "That'll Be All Sir" means put the card away....
And following our "Spend" those words were ringing in my ears....
Thanks Mate.....
Our purchase.....
Custard donut and Cheese bun...... 3 quid 80 pence....
So we "Tubed" to the West End, showing off our "Harrods" bag, could have been filled with Diamonds for all those "Non Lookers" on the tube knew.....
And for us Top Bracket spenders the bag was Free.........
Coming up... Borough Market.......
merry xmas to you.have a safe and pissy eyed new year.the kane.
