Christmas spirit?

Christmas spirit?

Jackie took Crisp into NYC today to see the Rockefeller tree and have a look at some of the big stores etc. around Times Square.

She said that in all her 42 years she has never seen such a seething mass of humanity- they tried to buy something at Toys ‘R’ Us, but the crowds swept them through the store with no chance to get near a till, so they had to just throw it aside as they were swept out the door! And she said that there was a distinct lack of Christmas spirit as people were actually fighting on the streets to get into stores.

Crisp thought the tree was cool, once they managed to get near enough to see it, but I don’t think they’ll be doing that again at this time next year!
