On behalf of missmimi:

If you haven’t seen it yet, Metropolitan Workshop on Cowcross Street have done an advent calendar in their lovely large windows again this year. A different scene in gingerbread will be unveiled each day with MW donating £100 to charity for each one.

I loved this last year, just that they were getting involved in the business of cheering up and saying hello to their pedestrian neighbours for no other reason than it’s a pleasant thing to do this time of year. The great majority of non-retail businesses don’t consider the people attached to the daily footfalls past their windows, so make a detour or visit them one lunch time to enjoy a rare piece of xmas spirit.
