Well, here I am in the library, having spent all morning wandering around town--ostensibly Christmas shopping, except that I went and left my money at home. Mainly, I've been pigeon-watching. I had an altercation with a man in W. H. Smith's, who took umbrage at the fact that I was sitting down to read. I wasn't about to buy a book without knowing if it was any good, so he lost my custom. Not that I could have bought very much with no money....
I wandered into Debenham's for a perfume catalogue and, as I stood gawping around the shop, the very tall Santa mannikin beside me *moved* and gave me a courteous hello. Once I'd got my breath back, I had a jolly nice chat with him about how Rudolph is doing these days, and the pro's and con's of Santahood. If I was single, I think I'd have asked him back to my place for a mince pie, if you know what I mean. He's cheered me up no end. Good old Santa.
