wish i could leave town and go anywhere but work!!

i work literally 2 minutes away from the biggest shopping complex in the UK (or so the news and figures show LOL!) called Metro Centre,
and if the traffic travelling to AND from work dont get you annoyed then the fuking idiots wanting wanting parts removed from the car and supplied to the counter cheaper than they can get at their local "scrap yard" dont boil your pi55, we get knob ends saying "so is that fitted for that price"


needless to say i get quite stressed at work and could really really do with a few days shopping in New York.

Trust me NYC isn't any less stressful... Traffic over past few weeks has been crazy, still nice to walk around at night tho. Rockerfeller Centre, Radio City Music Hall and of course Times Square to name a few.

Enjoy whenever you guys get here.

Surely you don't save much once you've taken into account flights, taxes, hotels, airport car parking etc?
Unless you are buying a very expensive item?
Or unless you get one of these "cheap deals" that everyone else at work seems to get but can never get duplicate details for me .....
