Urban Junkies London - Friday December 22

It's that time of year again. Time to say goodbye.

On that note we leave you with three things to do.

1) December 24: Everything Must Go
If you weren't one of the privileged ones to dine at The Reindeer, get in for the everything must go sale, and bag yourself a keepsake. Giles plates, Antler Chandeliers and we're hoping the Christmas trees... if it's in there, it's gotta go, so get your elbows out and dig deep.
Starts at 10am. Truman Brewery, Ely's Yard, off Hanbury St, E1.

2) December, well now: Sales
We keep going on about Christmas shopping, because we still haven't done any (YIKES!). If you're in the same boat, check out our SALES list in the Events section on the Forum, as several have already started. And no, it's not cheating; no one has to know you scored a steal and stuck a bow on it.

3) December 31: New Year's Eve
Yes, we hate it, too (sorry), but nonetheless, we know we'll end up at some overpriced restaurant, followed by an overpriced bar, hail an overpriced taxi (if we can find one), or check into an overpriced hotel (if we can't) - instead of the grown up dinner party that we really wanted to do. Sound familiar? Then sort your New Year's now.
Our New Year's Eve picks, as well as a list of what's going on in the city, in the Events section of the Forum.

From us to you, Feliz Navidad, and until 2007, we bid you adieu. We're back on January 8!

Thank you for reading Urban Junkies!
