...or lack thereof :-|

Look at it anyway you like... here's super snowman. You could walk around the mall and not stop to think twice about this chap flying above your head along with another half a dozen of his (super hero) brothers.

When I stopped by at Edinburgh's Ocean Terminal this evening for something or the other after work, I wondered if this ambience was enough to bring out people's hard earned (or borrowed) money.

Cyber Monday was predicted to be the highest online shopping day with £3500 being spent per second in the UK. 23 December 2011, is forecast as being the biggest retail shopping day.

I guess the snowmen have less than four weeks to get their underpants on the outside to get that money out of people's pockets and into the economy. They weren't quite 'doing it' for me yet :) Not sure the underpants would do it either.

Then again ...they are flying :) How often do you see that?

Thanks for reading this far. I'm making no excuses for this blip.

A slightly more festive view of the mall, for KirstieG to take preliminary notes :)
