If you are around Oxford St either doing some shopping or just trying to fight your way through the people who are, there is some place where you can escape for a bit and recharge your batteries. Let me introduce you to St Christopher's Place - even if I've been here countless times and it's always busy, talking to one of my friends last week I realised that not everybody knows that it exists hence this post.
It could be considered like a little oasis; you can actually have a drink, or 2, or a coffee or some food. There are plenty of possibilities to choose from, although in a sunny day those possibilities will be reduced to wherever there is a free table - and there will be a line for the tables (this comment goes to all the non-Brits as cutting the queue seems the favourite sport outside the UK islands).
There are also a few shops and art galleries where you can shop, even if it's only through the window. I do so in Mulberry every time I get into the Square through the alley next to the H&M in Oxford St, as so far I'm not able to afford one of their bags - I'll get there.
