I'm very sad to say that MK is the nearest shopping centre to me.
A vast (really) shopping centre with just about every shop you could ever need, including a big Boots, John Lewis, etc. On saturdays and ?wednesdays there is a market just outside selling the usual tat. There is a large open area where craft fairs, kids' bouncy games etc are often found. There are the usual fast food joints selling their usual rubbish.
Oh, and there are millions of people, all walking the the opposite direction to you.

On the plus side there are loads of impressive plants - palms, vines, etc to gawp at. There is a lot of car-park too, so usually no driving endlessly around looking for somewhere to park. There is a big food hall - Sainsbury's is good, Wiatrose not so good.

Its your typical shopping mall I'm afraid.

PS: There are really annoying adverts for the shopping centre on ITV ("Go MK today!" - grrrr).
