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.

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.

Anything is good if it's made of chocolate.
