Back to the city

When we headed back to central London, we went to Leceister Square, which was still decorated for Chinese New Year. We wandered around for a bit, had some lunch, then headed through Picadilly Circus (where we saw the Beefeater bear) and on to Buckingham Palace, so that my friend could see a few of the sites.

After we dodged the Kiwis who were out in force for Waitangi Day (there were literally thousands of them on the District Line), we went to Oxford St for a spot of shopping (even if my friend did manage a five-finger discount on a Tina Sparkles umbrella from an unnamed High Street store...). We pretty much saw every possible women's clothing shop on the street, and a few on Regent St as well. We also saw two almost-naked men in Selfridges - they were models who were spruiking Calvin Klein products, wearing only a pair of tighty whitey CK jocks. It totally made our day - they were HOT. We will go back to Selfridges just to see if they have them there again! Eventually we gave up on the shopping, but only when we could walk no longer and were ready to pass out from hunger. We headed back to Liverpool St for some dinner, then home, as we were completely shattered.
