Oh, look at that, I've discovered hell!
If your idea of a good time is being surrounded by screaming children, screaming parents and, to be completely blunt here, swarms of dodgy looking people, then Primark in Wood Green is the place for you.
I don't like Wood Green which doesn't help the situation but seriously on a weekday afternoon this place is best avoided.
Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of Primani, especially for the basics - PJs, socks, scarves...you know, random shizz, and this store is magnificent in that it's huge and very well stocked, however I can't stand the crowds and the angry scary people who seem to gather here.
I did come earlyish one weekday morning and it was a big improvement in that it looks like the scarier types arrive later and I managed to grab what I needed without other people's 'tude slowing me down. That's right, I'm using street talk. Word!
Major drawback - I couldn't get a onesie in my size and although my other half has implored me not to get one I simply must! They look so comfy albeit a little creepy.
So, in summary:
Pro - giant well-stocked Primark with all the fabulous cheapo things you need!
Con - you have to go to Wood Green to get to it.
