LW's Judy is going to take you shopping! Here she
is…
The traditional old shops of St James and the Piccadilly Arcades - one of the most festive areas of the city as this time
of year!
And you don't need a platinum credit card
to pick up some last minute gifts.
London's oldest wine merchant for a bottle
of The King's Ginger Liqueur (created for Edward VII); chocolate from Prestat,
favourite chocolate shop of Roald Dahl; perfume from Floris, suppliers to Lord
Nelson, Eva Peron & James Bond; pot pourri from the world's oldest pharmacy
(OK, they're from Florence, not London); books from the shop where the Duke of
Wellington & Oscar Wilde shopped; not forgetting Fortnums' famous Christmas
windows.…
…who could resist ?
Join Judy on the Amazing Old Shops walk on
Sat Dec 21st at 1045. Green Park station (Green Park exit, by the fountain)
