without a new pair of reindeer pyjamas or

that ‘Sunday best’ outfit for Christmas lunch with all the family.

>> Quickly head toPutney’s biggest toy shop - Kids Stuff before stocks run out of ‘Harry Potter

Hogwarts Lego’ – 2018’s predicted best

seller toy!

>> The little oneswill love a few hours play at

Putney’s exclusive Purple Dragon’s Little Brother. 10

guest passes will go down a storm at this top kids club.

>> If you’ve beenscratching your head to think

of the perfect teenager gift this Christmas, Velosport have some

nifty bikes for the over 12’s. Another one for the teenager is a Teen Membership Package at

Martial Fitness.

>> Can’t beat a Smiggle calendar. Bursting

with colourful toys and stationary gifts, it’s a top favourite for kids

this year.

PUTNEY’S CHRISTMAS SHOPPING GUIDE

GIFTS FOR HIM & HER What to fill his and her stocking with

this festive season.

>> If you’re looking for something

different, a 3-months membership to House of Yoga might do the

trick this year.

>> Milano Menswear shop offers some exquisite Italian suits and their ties

are rather nice too. A pair of monogrammed socks from

Morrows will also bring a smile.

>> For the ultimate gift for him or her, you

can’t beat spending a morning piloting a Boeing 737 in a

simulation at Flight Experience.

>> From alcohol gifts to food hampers, its always easy to find something good

for a foodie. While Guilano Deli offers the best traditional Italian Panettone, Casa Manola is the place to go for cured ham and chees. A crate of spiced beer from Beer Boutique won’t go

a ‘miss either!

>> For anything ‘I Love Putney’

head to Huttons or Farrago.

>> Granny will always love a painted bowl and cup from Pitter Potter Pottery Café.

>> She might have her Christmas Day outfit sorted but what about a new pair of shoes from

Adornments, or just some new Winter

boots.

>> One for thecoffee lover in your

life is a coffee master class at Artisan

café.

>> Whether it’s a stocking filler you’re after or the big present

itself, a trip to L’Occitane will sort you out. Its

limited edition ‘Immortelle Divine Face Care Trilogy’ is

particularly good.
