Now I like shopping as much as the next girl, but I'm afraid Selfridges just doesn't do it for me - it's just too big and sprawling with too many sub-areas so that I can never find what I want. Take today for example, all I needed to do was find 5 decorated elephants (yes, I was elephant hunting again!) and it took me nearly 30 minutes of going up and down the countless escalators and round and round the many floors before I managed to locate them. And even then I'd had to ask several security guards and staff members for help along the way!  Mind you as you can see from the picture Selfridges has been around for over 100 years - so it must be doing it for some people...
