GLITZEN

I went Christmas shopping today at The Metrocentre, Gateshead. When it opened 25 years ago it was said to be " The Largest Indoor Shopping Centre in Europe". Obviously this doesn't apply now.

My blip shows " Glitzen - The Reindeer of the North ". There is a competition running where you have to guess his height to win one of 50 spectacular prizes. He is certainly big - but I can't begin to guess how big.

Had a good days shopping but most of it seems to be for ME. Not what I had in mind when I left the house today. Never mind - plenty more shopping days before Christmas to get stuff for other people.
