    If anyone needs help booking, I can do it if you PM me your details...I am not going as I don't have kids and I think I'd break Santa's legs if I sat on his knee. Or rather, my stepson is 16 so I don't think he'd be up for going somehow...

    We went last year and found the whole thing very commercial. We had to wait about half an hour before we were taken into a corridor with lots of doors which looked like changing rooms. Behind each one was a Santa. A quick hello, a photo taken and we were out.

    The photo was expensive and the gift was a Cinderella sticker book. We were very disappointed. :sad:

    :o:o:o:o I'm sooooo stupid!!!!!

    Booked my tickets thinking Harrods was Hamleys iykwim!!!!!

    When it dawned on me it was Harrods I remember ages ago people used to say they were pretty strict about going in and wondered if they still were???

    The thing is I always feel very self confident that people think I am some kind of chav as I am 26 and have 2 young children (nearly 5 and 2). I started my family young as my OH is 6 years older than me and we took that into consideration, He looks very young for his age and so I am always paranoid that when we are in shops people think I'm going to pinch stuff!!! I know for sure in places like Boots I am followed by security guards! it almost makes me feel like I am looking guilty when I am not!!! I think alot of people are judging me thinking I am a young mum, probably scrounging on benefits, etc etc when I am not! we've owned our own house from before we started a family and have been together donkeys years!! I don't really even wear chavvy clothes tbh,

    So will I find it really stuffy going there? I've never been and wanted it to be a really nice day for the children!

    I'm probably being stupid, but getting myself nervous about going already!! anyone around who can put my mind at rest??? :o:o

    PS No offence intended to any real chavs!!
