Kids club


Don't get us wrong there's no harm having a quick perusal and occasional purchase at Gap, or The Gap to our American readers but the times we actually whip out the plastic and buy anything are as rare as sighting a red squirrel. Plain boring is often a major factor or lack of sizes. So during a Saturday morning trip to the Kensington branch yesterday we expected to come away empty-handed yet again.

That is until the basement came into our line of vision and some fine shirting and wintery knits caught our eye. It was only when an eager member of staff asked how old our children were that the realisation that this was in fact the GapKids section of the store fell into place. Not that this mattered one bit, and with a quick rummage for the all important 13XXL range, surely meant for obese school children, we came away with some perfect fitting shirts, an oatmeal chunky knit cardigan and nearly nabbed a subtle plaid wax jacket; and all with the benefit of being machine washable. Oh to be a child again.
