On Christmas Day at half past three make your self a cup of tea. I’ll think of you, you think of me, underneath the Christmas tree.

I went out for casual tea and conversation with a few close friends on a rainy day.

Pots of gingerbread, apple crumble and crème brûlée tea were shared between Sharon, April, Holly, Meg, Annette and I as we chatted in the Tea Centre de-stressing during the holiday period. The scones were huge, and the honey bread was cute.

Christmas trees in the sky.

I've never been in the Strand Arcade before and I walked around like a tourist taking photos of everything. I loved the colours and atmosphere.

There were specialty stores with all kinds of decorated chocolates and gingerbread.

The Aesop store, my holy grail of skincare.
