to wonder "what recession?" when out shopping today?

[emkana]

All the shops were full to bursting!

Sales? t-shirts for 50p?

Bearing in mind that I still don't understand why people queue at Next on 26 December!

I feel the same when out shopping. I rang a plumber the other day and he said that he was so busy we would have to wait a few weeks to get work done and it is just after xmas.

We are british, we will shop on with a stiff upper debt.

ah, but does being in a shop=spending in a shop?
