Saw advertising for this over the past few weeks for the above event for today and next thursday, thought it would be great being "Scandanavian" yeah right !!!!! :mad: Even got a couple hundred pound out of the bank hoping to find something great to buy. Total waste of time if you are expecting this.
Arrived at around 11am went to the desk asked about the scandanavian christmas shopping.. Girl at desk " oh its scandanavian because the new building is of scandanavian style oh and we have a few Christmas bits
.
I said well the way your advertising this event it is a scandanavian day of Christmas shopping ie going to a special event!!!. More people arrived of the same opinion and left in anger at having their time wasted.
We travelled quite a distance for this so i'm just warning other people in case they had thought it would be a good day out..
Anyway all ended up well we went to ikea and spend our money there instead.
