London-bound

So, the office is sending me to London later this month...YAY!! AND they are putting me up at The Dorchester!! (sssshhh...don't tell them they made a mistake. )

I won't have a lot of free time while I am there, but what little I do have, I will use to see as much as I can of the city.

Here's my question: I've been tasked with bringing back a Tottenham Hotspur football jersey. Is Lillywhites where I should go to get said item?

in advance!

I would have thought so. Alternatively you could get a bus or train to White Hart Lane and get one from Spurs FC's official store.

Very true!! And thank you so much for the link. However, since I am such a lazy scurve, I was hoping to find someplace closer to the hotel. I am all about the hassle factor.

There are a ton of places on Oxford Street that would have them. I've gotten a few football jerseys there... even though I feel weird for paying for something with corporate logos all over it! They should pay US to wear them!

London is a blast, but fucking expensive as hell.

Bruise, you are torturing me with those pics!! But thank you.

I love Scotland, what little I've seen of it. When I first stepped foot in Scotland, I felt...at home.
