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

Okay, so here’s another thing. There are other 12 year old girls also shopping today. I can’t tell which ones are my responsibility to stop from getting abducted and which ones I can ignore.

You see, this is my problem with shopping. Look at all these stools and benches. I’ve been standing in this shop for what feels like a week now and I’m not allowed to sit on any of them. Grrrrr.pic.twitter.com/3NIx1hIyGv

I think all six girls are now trying on the *same* top. A tenner says none of them buy it.

Just been told off by the shop security guard for sitting on the stairs. He seems very cross. I think I might get arrested for loitering soon.

I think even the 12 year olds are flagging by now. I’m going to start a campaign for shops to be legally required to have chairs. The fightback starts now.

Four hours in and there have been purchases. Five girls have outfits. One left. FOUR HOURS, people.
