It is truly saddening not to get involved in the early Christmas hype. Being too keen is fine for things like Christmas. Drinking your take-out coffee in Christmas-design paper cups is simply not enough.
For a cup of warm mulled wine or a steaming hot cinnamon roll, go visit the Southbank Christmas market now! The market stalls (and, surprisingly, an ice-cream van) look especially pretty after 5pm when London gets really dark. On the bright side, the much-dreaded darkness brings out the beautiful streaks of Christmas lights that brighten up the market with hints of red, green and gold. The location of the market is also perfect – you can see the London Eye and other lovely buildings from your side of the River Thames. The market is situated near Waterloo bridge, roughly 5 minutes away from the LSE campus by bus.
One more thing – Winter Wonderland should be on your Christmas to-do list. Go ice skating, grab some Christmassy snacks and get on fun rides with your friends and family.
