Getting yourself into the Christmas spirit get more difficult as you get older but a sure fire way to get those spirits going is to head up to London to see the lights. There are always lots of things to see and do in London but at Christmas time the whole place goes bananas. It’s the busiest time to visit but also, the best time to visit. We sent one of our photographers up there to shadow a pair looking to get into the spirit of things and to get a few snaps of London at this ridiculously busy special time of year.
