London Essentials: December 2010
Nothing says holidays like spending quality time with the family. However, prolonged family exposure also runs the risk of driving any person mental. Your London Essentials host Philip Stocker provides theatrical catharsis and a musical refuge from irritating relatives with theatrical pick Season's Greetings, and music and sound selections (Beataucue - Disque Oh!, The Simonsound - Tour De Mars, and Sunday Girl - Stop Hey) for droning out Mother's interrogative prodding.
Plus, don't miss the London Christmas tip that'll make you very merry--a great location for shopping and London holiday cheer while avoiding American tourists. (12 minutes)
