hm, well. i don't understand why you say in the beginning, that it wasn't good to go shopping so short before christmas. it doesn't have anything to do with the cookies or the two lovers, does it? as for the implied love story, it is really cute, i like the last sentence with the cheeks. ;-)
Yeah, well, I tried to convey with this that London is too full of people going shopping just before Christmas...ah well, maybe I should have put it that way :)
