To paraphrase Oscar Wilde, I adore simple pleasures, they are the last refuge of the complex. Which is exactly why today I find myself in a onesie, making fantasy online shopping lists. I also like to think that this is because it's nearly Christmas and the lure of being completely self-indulgent and ridiculous in the comfort of your own home is too much to resist. So here are the fruits of my rather lazy labour; an extravagant but not altogether unrealistic Christmas List. Are you reading this, mum? NOT ALTOGETHER UNREALISTIC.
