All you need is love (and a good bank account)
This address should make my Friend Elisa’s day – she recently visited from Argentina to cross Abbey Road…
A Beatles store. Dedicated to the merchandising. No trace of a Paddington bear or other souvenir on the shelves.
Whether you’re a fan or not does not really matter. We’re talking history here, somehow. No need resisting either. you will end up buying something. If you’re not seduced by the songs it will be the graphism of the 70ies… If not, you’ll have Xmas presents easily found here. Help! It’s all too much! Your bank account will suffer.
it seems you can find anything here: from just a postcard to fabric patches. From t-shirts to bibs. From mugs to the cookie cutter. From vintage glasses to signed editions. Fans stepping in are ready to chain themselves to the shelves. Non fans just get this happy feeling and leave with a huge smile on their face and humming away…
You’ll find the Elvis equivalent next door with Elvishly Yours… And don’t forget Paul’s playing @ the O2 in December for his Good evening Europe tour!

Génial Coralie.
Osky va me demander de traduire tout le billet!
Quand j´ai appris que Paul McC prépare son concert à Bercy, j´ai pensé à voyager encore une fois!
Dommage!
Je t´embrasse fort

This is such a great thing to put on your list when you go to London! And there are some really good pubs, gourmet shops and design stores in the area too, which makes for a great weekend afternoon!

Elisa – ah, rageant, n’est ce pas a quelques mois pres. Mais meme moi, je m’y suis prise trop tard pour un billet…
Chloe – any particular addresses to advise? Love the tip as this is not a neighborhood I usually go. My bus passed by and seeing the shop I just had to get off!

J’ai habite un temps dans le Staffordhire et ai eu l’occasion de me promener @ Liverpool, j’imagine donc tres bien! J’y ai encore une amie tres chere – l’occasion de papoter la prochaine fois que je monte?
[...] if you’re more of a 70ies nostalgic, head for the Beatles shop nearby! Share and [...]
