Daily Constitutional editor Adam Scott-Goulding writes…It's back! The annual London Christmas Shopping Guide from The Daily Constitutional!
This year I'll be including museum gift shops and markets for gift ideas.
As well as gifts I'll be pointing you toward local London shops for the best in Christmas food and drink. Where relevant, I'll list the London Walks tour that finishes near the shop in question.
As usual, you can drop me a line with your own tips by emailing the usual address, by leaving a comment below or via Twitter.
Reckless Records
16/12/16: Adam writes… My Rock'n'Roll London walk will end here today…
A very forward-looking establishment, is Reckless Records: they even sell those new-fangled compact-disc thingies. Quite a good selection, too.
But the real treasure trove here is the vinyl. Second hand records, a great selection spread over most genres in a central location.
They even keep a copy of What’s The Story Morning Glory in the window, with a little sticker attached with the words You Are Here. For indeed you are – Berwick Street was where the sleeve for that fabled Oasis album was shot.
My Rock'n'Roll London walk meets at Tottenham Court Road tube (exit 1) 2pm. You can find Reckless Records here…
Here's the video for the Rock'n'Roll London walk…
