but christmas is near and nothing can stop my holiday cheer! :)
i love the manchester christmas markets. despite having to battle through crazy crowds, they make me feel so warm and fuzzy and certainly get me in the festive mood. AND the food is yummm-mehhh (although prices are ridiculous).
anyways. really lazy to actually type out something substantial, so i'll leave you with pictures!

mervin with spicy german hotdog (BEST!), trlau and meeee (with christmas punch!)

phua and albert. it started snowing heavily, all of a sudden. stupid weather.

giant santa which makes an appearance every year

in front of harvey nichols which had awesome window decorations, but obviously could not be captured by my pathetic phone camera. this was before it snowed.

christmas meet-up at chiquitos! pictures from van's trusty blackberry.
