Not quite sure how I got roped into this but I am currently in Oxford Street supervising (ie. walking behind and only speaking when spoken to) six 12-year-old girls on a day off school shopping for outfits for a school disco. Six of ‘em. Oh, and I hate shopping. #whatwentwrong

Well, this is going to come as a HUGE a surprise to everyone but we’re now back in the second store we went to. You know, the one with no sodding chairs. Not sure the security man is too pleased to see me.

Right, we’ve made it to Top Shop and it feels like we’re on the final furlong. The last girl without an outfit is looking confident. And they have comfy seats near the changing rooms so... YAY!

People, I have news. The last girl of the six 12 year olds has a new top for the school disco. Phew. There is talk of heading home soon. I fear it is only talk. I don’t want to get my hopes up.

Okay, so now we’re getting drinks at a cafe in Top Shop. As they don’t offer pints of vodka, I’m holding off til I get home. I remember home. It was a nice place I once used to spend time in with sofas and TVs... and vodka.
