so today i went to harley street for dental after work, except i was so late that i actually met the dentist walking down the street (away from his practice and off for the day). no dental appt for me then, but i had already paid £1.30 for the tube into town (which was delayed as usual on the way causing me to be late), what do i do?
go shopping on oxford street of course. and not just any kind of shopping - grocery shopping, my favourite kind!
went to the john lewis food hall (which is actually waitrose, but more atas) and found it to be like Jason's supermarket in Raffles City. i remember not being able to afford anything there, or refusing not to buy anything because it cost a lot more than in a normal supermarket.... i always wondered, 'who are these crazy people - going into town dressed perfectly well and buying overpriced (albeit fresh) veg and raw meat...'
amazing lay-out and looked very boutique, but actually i just bought my usual groceries at the usual prices (+ a 10% discount, yay! they sent me a discount card for 1 month!) and had to carry my pork ribs + mushrooms + pak choy down the most awfully crowded tourist street in london and through the tube. how silly.
but at least i can now say that i've leveled up that once! :p
