Window shopping is great.... No arguments, kills time and costs no money. Plus no need to carry umpteen bags full of mostly unnecessary merchandise.

Plus it's good ogling time!!

Pras, you are getting better and better at this- writing. Reading your FC # 85 on shopping malls, yes I really feel that you seem to have a way of knowing your readers mind. Just as I was wondering what could you be writing about shopping malls, I find you have answered my question straight away.

I now discover you have a hilarious way of describing the shopping mall freaks. How often have I felt like you describe the way one is cheated on mall visits? Your description of the incidents as a first person account, is evidently much more than that. That humming that the son makes of “Mary had a little lamb” was so apt.

I am beginning to wonder if you are really that robot fly on the wall at home (not to mention my shopping trips) eavesdropping into my conversations and doings et all – a modern day robot spy. I couldn’t fail to note how you were able to read my mind and get me to feel that you are describing the visit of myself and my dear wife on the shopping mall visits though you have taken the blame on yourselves by making it a first person account.

Keep going Pras.
