Will also pop to Primark and H and M to get final things for holiday. Treating my boy to some Mario clothing and cap his new obsession and he never asks for much <3

    Shame about the lack of Mario clothing - I always spot that in the shops but it's been a while since I was out!

    I'm sure he was delighted with the switch game :)
