just been out gift shopping (not Christmas, I have prior commitments); the Christmas lights are up but I don't think they've found a celeb to switch them on yet. neti, are you due to be in Oxford St any time soon?
There was a helicopter hovering overhead, which isn't uncommon but there was a man on the corner holding up a large sign pointed at it, reading "stop masturbation". I can't help wondering if I walked in on some private joke involving the whole West End.
