I love this time of year, I really do. Everything suddenly starts to feel festive- decorations start springing up, Christmas songs start playing and the Christmas ads on TV start appearing. Everyone seems to have their favourite and this year I am LOVING this little snippet from BHS!
I think it’s brilliantly quirky and really clever with the characters they’ve given the toys. I just can’t get enough! It’s an amazing way to showcase what gifts BHS have to offer this festive season and will appeal to both children and adults which not a lot of adverts manage to do- they seem to cater on one or the other.
When it comes to Christmas shopping as much as I love the convenience of online shopping nothing beats a browse through actual shops. The crowds get to me, I’m not a crowd person at the best of times and I find myself rapidly losing patience but when most of my presents have been delivered to my door I do enjoy a few hours picking out those finishing touches and stocking fillers from my favourite stores.
Bristol is pretty good for this, over recent years it’s become more and more well served for shops and it’s never a challenge finding what I need. We’re lucky we still have a large BHS store (two in fact with one at Cribbs Causeway) and I never turn down a browse of their treasure trove of gifts which seems to get better by the year.
This year I literally have two gifts left to get- one for my Mum and one for the Boy. I have annual leave next week and fingers crossed my back will allow me at least a short look around both the shops and German Market which I have heard is better than ever this year.

I love it, I hadn’t seen it before but they do have a great selection for presents definitely 🙂
I’ve managed to miss most of the Christmas ads on TV this year (even the John Lewis one) but that’s no bad thing I suppose. I used to love the gifty section at the front of BHS when I was younger – there were so many gift ideas to be found and I remember being chuffed to bits when I found a chocolate bar in the shape of a floppy disk for my brother, who was studying I.T. at the time 🙂
