The last thing I bought in Dixons was my old Commodore 64.
It spent more time int he fucking workshop than it did in my house.

It was an Amstra 6128 that Dixons pissed me off over . Oh that and I was in there looking at some PCs and a salesman came over and told me not to touch them . I dont buy anything big ticket there now .
John Lewis have always been outstanding with me , above and beyond in fact . If I can buy there I do

That's cos you look like a thug and they were quite right.
In fact they should have set the dogs onto you.


John Lewis are ok I suppose.
Oxford Street has too many good store to choose from.
Go to Debenhams and indulge.

Just down the road to me.
Oxford Street has changed a lot.

I used to go to school near Maida Vale and then Paddington.
Used to catch a bus down Edgware Road towards Marble Arch and then walk along during double maths.
