For the north western contingent, I was at the Lowry Outlet yesterday and hada look in the new Yankee store. It's quite small but there was a reasonable choice, mainly house warmer jars but a small section of aromatherapy, tumbler jars, pillars and the plug ins. One entire wall is Christmas stuff, good to have a sniff of some of these as ivealways been suspicious. Alli can say is that I'm glad ie never succumbed.... Not my cup of tea at all. I was hoping that some of the more unusual ones would be available for a sniff but it was all the usual suspects, although they did have the elusive Witches Brew (patchouli).
Prices were not outlet prices from what I could tell 14.99 for a medium house warmer I think. That's not discounted is it? House of Fraser on deansgate in manc has a smaller but similar rangeland is easier to get to.
I wonder if the dreadful michaela will do the TSV. After being dropped and replaced by the nice northern girl she apparently kicked off to the point where she was allowed back on. Perhaps they'll share it now.
