So yes, the Paradis family were in Blighty again, this Xmas.
(Dolce and Gabbana, Bond Street)
It was blustery, and we slept quite late most days.
(The Conran Shop, South Kensington)
So we spent much of our time in the dark. Or inside.

Even though the London was churning with Italian (!) tourists, the dark made it peaceful, intimate, cozy.
Christmas week has changed so much over the years. London used to shut down completely and even those who had gone off to family homes/heaps for the Christmas and Boxing Day often used to hole up in rented cottages with their "chums" until the New Year, or well into it, depending on the day the holiday fell. This year London was bustling. Why? Because of the sales? The economy?
The museums were the highlight for us this year. In every way possible. More on that soon!
