Liverpool Is Soooooo Lush.

Nigel says that Liverpool is the most sparkly place he has ever, ever, ever been too, even perhaps more sparkly than Last Vegas ….. He said that Darrell would think he’d died and gone to heaven if he just caught the merest glimpse of the shoe shops there!

Now….. Lu had wanted to visit the renowned Taskers in Aintree to get a few ideas for her home for absolute ages and since their Christmas department was in full festive flow it was a win win situation all round for both her and Nigel.  I don’t know about Darrell, but from what Nigel has told me he was in seventh heaven too.

Taskers certainly did not disappoint and far surpassed both Lu’s and Nigel’s expectations

Darrell’s decorating of The Towers has been pretty spectacular but compared to Taskers ……. it could possibly be seen as wanting.

Nigel said it was hard to know where to look first ……..

……. there was a flock of reindeers and illuminated, magical sleighs set up in the rafters …….

And Father Christmases? Why have one when you can have a whole sleigh full? A little confusing but no less soooooooo wonderful.

Poor Lu thought she might have to administer smelling salts to Nigel at one stage when it all rendered him so speechless he even developed a limp?????

Lu indeed gathered a great many ideas for Chateau LuLu, and although Nigel was truly inspired and wanting to buy a little something, sadly everything was how shall I say …… just a touch out of his price range ………

……… however, in the bedroom department ….. he returned to The Towers with a dream, but of that more tomorrow.

I’m so glad Nigel enjoyed looking round Taskers-looking forward to hearing about the rest of his adventures.
