The time has come. Tomorrow I hit the streets of Birmingham to thrash out my pressie-buying for Winterval (as Birmingham City Council succinctly named it a few years ago).
I'm not looking forward to the experience. Not one bit. (The shopping, not christmas, which will be stupendous, sort of.)
However, there is a glittery halo of hope sitting atop the hell of christmas shopping - I might get to do a bit of tourisme français whilst I'm out there
For those not wired into the latest news from the heart of England, we've only gone and bought a big carousel wheel - The Wheel Of Birmingham - from the French. Complete with commentary about its supposedly Parisienne surroundings. Which they can't turn off. Centenary Square will never seem the same again.
