Where will our readers be spending Christmas?
DAVID WOOTTON LORD MAYOR OF LONDON
“I am going to spend Christmas day in Mansion House with all the family, including my grandchildren who are coming from Chicago. Boxing Day will be spent in Sevenoaks and then to a hotel in Kent for the family to enjoy. Lastly my wife and I will be spending the days before New Year relaxing, alone in our home.”
LOUISE COOPER BGC PARTNERS
“I love London, and will definitely be staying in the capital. On Christmas Eve we’ll have friends over then on the day it’ll just be me, my husband and our two kids enjoying the Christmas spirit and relaxing. Unfortunately the busy markets have meant I’m very disorganised – I haven’t had time to buy a turkey yet!”
NELEEN STRAUSS OWNER OF HIGH TIMBER RESTAURANT
“On Christmas day I’ll curl up in front of a log fire outside of London and eat, drink and sleep. I tend to need a bit of sleep after a terrific season at High Timber with all the fabulous city suits. After that I’ll be hosting the New Year’s Eve party at High Timber, and it’ll be all systems go again for 2012.”
PAUL ROWLAND PC HARRINGTON
“I am going to see the in-laws down in Sussex because it’s the most convenient place for the family to gather. I have two weeks off which is good because that is enough time to relax away from the City.”
IAN DENNIS LPM OUTSOURCING
“My plans are to be with the family in the country. I love spending Christmases in the countryside because we always try to have a very traditional celebration at our home.”
TONY SAUNDERS MADISON RESTAURANT
“I’m heading to Prague to visit the in-laws. I have a week off so it will be really nice to get out the country, but the downside will be spending time at the airport.”
