I myself live outside of Dartford and have been to every place you have described in this story, and I cannot agree more on everything you have described! Everything being described as grey and lifeless! Canary wharf! And Bluewater! i have worked at Bluewater and my God i cant agree more! The exploiter of all things Christmassy. This is genius, and im glad someone else agrees with me that this place is miserable! 5 STARS! I can honestly say, that is EXACTLY, how i see London/Lewisham/Dartford!

Happy new year!

Especially liked the meat raffle, theres something really gross about giving away bits of flesh, and the streets reference, nothing like a goood old stare to show your gravity. Enjoy your christmas dinner, roast spuds, too much brandy, warm sitting room with all of the seats filled, family, chrismas specials, re-runs, wrapping paper, and familiar comforts and all the cliches that become so dear when you're removed. nice idea, and nicely done :)
