Good morning.
I need to go and do some xmas shopping today, and have tired of Oxford and Banbury. Swindon is just within my sane driving distance, whats it like for shopping, any good?
Cheers

Depends what you want. Town centre is a shit hole. I didn't even know the outlet village was still there until my sister was going a few weeks ago.

As a shopping expert! Swindons not the prettiest place but it will have all the shops you need I suspect other than that there's always Cribbs or Cabott circus? I would recommend the train to Cabott though as parking is Ming and expensive
