Xmas is commercial so I guess it is appropriate for a xmas tree to be pure advertising. This year's tree in St Pancras station is a donation from Fortnum and Mason to celebrate their new store that opened here a couple of weeks ago. (it's more than 300 years since they opened the last one)
Beautiful Xmax tree! well captures..
ReplyDeleteCelebrating a commercial Xmas and a big profit.
ReplyDeleteIt's called a Christmas Tree I hate the word Xmas but your right Christmas nowadays has just degenerated into a commercial oppertunity
ReplyDeleteThe horror!
ReplyDeleteChristmas is commercial now, so I guess we should all accept that. However, it still adds a nice feel to a wonderful station.
ReplyDeleteOooh, that's interesting! I didn't know it was 300 years since F&M last opened a store.
ReplyDelete300 years? That's older than my country... and the Yankees too.
ReplyDeleteIt does brighten up the space. I have been looking at some places here with Christmas trees that have already gone up. I should take pics soon.
One of my favorite stops in London! This station is simply gorgeous. I didn't shop the F&M shop here but I did make it to the one on Piccadilly Street.
ReplyDeleteC'est magnifique , tes photos sont superbes!
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice big tree. Too big to be dwarfed by the huge space. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteI guess I can't deny what is around the corner...! Love that tree.
ReplyDeleteGosh!
ReplyDeleteYes, the way the shops decorate for XMAS in London are just fantastic!
Wish I could just take a quick look.
Anyway, thanks for sharing.
The tree looks dramatic and eye catching way. 300 years is a long time between expansion.
ReplyDeleteAhh it's wonderful! Looking forward to be in London soon again!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Christmas!
