Hannah, thanks, makes not being able to travel painless watching up-to-date street scenes of London.
I agree!
I agree!
So glad you like the vlogs!!
Fortnum and Mason - my favourite store. We go once a year on our 'luxury' shopping trip. This year I bought the Fortnum's clock Christmas ornament. It's such a special shop.
Liked the window features were the little animals were thinking of Christmas in their sleep with those dream balloon scenes.
Thanks, Hannah. It is SO refreshing to see an old fashioned department store still going all out for Christmas. Online shopping just can’t replicate the experience. Enjoy your chocolates!! 🎄🎄🎄
Michael yes very refreshing especially watching in the USA.
It’s really amazing isn’t it! Thanks for watching
Online lacks the excitement of discovering all the goodies for yourself as you browse.Love it all!
FANTASTIC! A person could spend an entire day in the store! I'd love to visit someday. Thank you for posting this and all videos. The videos are never too long!
I had afternoon tea there with my aunt, never will forget. I love London, I love English countryside, all of it!
When I finally get to Fortnum and Mason, I may never want to leave. I'm going to have to budget a whole section of our trip time and funds just for that store!! 😊 So fun, Hannah! Thank you for taking us on another lovely tour. And yes, I am now drooling . . .
I'd never heard of them as I have been in Oz since I was a child, but my mother knows who they are and I'll be sending a link so she can also watch this lovely video. :)
Thanks so much. I spent some time in London years ago. I miss Harrods and tea at Fortnum & Mason. Love the new Christmas decorations.
“Biscuits snap, cookies bend.” LOL 🤣
The F&M Window Displays are dreams (shown in "bubbles" ) that the little animals sleeping below were having......
Absolutely love fortnum & mason - agree with you about the staff on the chocolate counter super helpful and friendly. The shop fitting is exquisite and the windows are far better than Harrods 😍
It was nice to hear you say the sales person wasn’t snooty. I remember being there with my mother when I was a child and the sales associate was a very snooty middle aged man wearing striped trousers - very formal.
F&M has the best glass displays out of all the stores, I'm used to Paris where store fronts are dedicated for children. So it's whimsical and Christmas-y unlike the brand sponsored displays at Harrod's and Selfridges. They even have platforms where the kids can stand to watch the marionettes dance at the Galeries Lafayette, Le Bon Marché. Christmas after all, is for the children and children at heart.
Fantastic vlog as always Hannah .
F&M ‘s christmas decorations are stunning xx
Ohhhhh my gosh ‼️I would love to be locked up in this store overnight 💕😂😋this was such fun... thank you so much Hannah ❤️just lovely as always 🎄xxx I truly enjoyed this 🥂🍾💕well done and I love a long Vlog soooooooo do go on😊👏👏stay safe thank you again for taking us along!
Hannah, Fortnum, and Mason = shopping fun. Gorgeous store.
Terrific job Hannah, sharing all the wonderful sights at the gorgeous F & M flagship store! It is particularly enjoyable to see your immediate reactions to all the displays in each department! Well done, as usual & thx for sharing!!!
Wonderful and truly magical! Thank-you, Hannah! 🇨🇦
Fortum & Mason way ahead of Harrods on the decor front, also looks a far better layout...you picked the best time to go at night..HAHA pickled brussel sprouts is that to try and make them taste better...too much chocolate for me complete sugar overload I'd be a diabetic within a week..your going for it girl with those chocs well done, its that time of the year.
Thanks for watching!!
It feels like a lifetime since I was last in Fortnums, thank you so much for the video, I’ve really got to haul myself down there again, lol just not when I’m hungry!
Hannah, thanks for a glimpse of the high life! Where I live there is nothing that compares to this. Our shopping malls pale in comparison. That staircase is stunning.
Thank you Hannah, for bringing us another beautiful edition of Hannah Ricketts at large. You are so courageous to tackle such a vast array of product in one go. Fortnum and Mason is obviously, consistently at the top of it's game . The whole subject of tole is an interesting one too. Good idea to stay hydrated. Merry Xmas and see you next time.
Thanks Dale!
I am hoping to visit london in the future especially when hyde park winter wonderland is around.
Beautiful wish I was there! Blessings 😇🙏
Can I just say that your hairband in the vlog is EVERYTHING and that I need one in my life? Also, that sweet teapot ornament is calling to me--I hope there are some left when I get there on the 21st!! Thank you for the beautiful vlog--I had a horrid day at work today, but sitting with a cup of tea and some fruitcake, watching today's video, brought me right back to full-on, 100% holiday feels! You're the best!
Thanks for watching! Hope you have a good trip when you go!
What a wonderful shopping trip. I was there one Christmas a few years ago on Saturday...I could barely see anything as the crowd was packed solid. I grabbed several tins of biscuits and fled. I cannot wait to return. Thank you so much. I feel like I saw the best of everything!
Thank you so much for this! I wish I was there. Such a beautiful store. I loved seeing the window displays with the little critters dreaming of those treats. Maybe someday I will be gifted a Fortnum and Mason hamper. A girl can dream. Happy Vlogmas!
I live in the tropics and am lucky to have a mature tropical garden with Meyer lemon,lime,clementine, calamondin, and orange trees They all are filled with fruit just now...every year at this time. I like to give jams, jellies, marmalades and chutneys from my garden to friends for Christmas presents along with my best cookie recipes...I want a STACK of those Fortnum Mason cloth bags to put them in....wahhhhhh!
Love it, thanks for that, and yes, much less wobbly, much better.
Love that you vlog all the high end stores. Never knew Fortnum & Mason had a sweets floor. Next time I go I’m going to every floor before I leave. When I lived there I would pass that store many times and I always thought it was a fancy hotel. That was 43 years ago before internet. I missed out on so many things. Thank you for all your hard work and showing so much.
Thanks for watching! Yeah I think people are scared to go in. Hopefully more will after seeing this!
Another excellent stream Hannah
Loved the Sparkling Hair Band, you looked liked a
Princess.
Beautiful store with great products.
I loved the Christmas Decorations
the hanging F&M basket was fun.
Your chocolates looked yummy.
Thank you for showing us another great London Store
Looking forward to your next stream
Best wishes
Stay safe
👍🏻😁
Thanks Lee!!
My mouth is practically salivating at the thought of those pickled Brussels sprouts (not! 😜). Looking forward to vlogmas 🎅🎄🤶🎄👍
I’m going there next week, I keep forgetting to go upstairs- I definitely will next time!
Wow! I'm speechless, Fortnum & Mason- the windows, interior, staircase, star decorations- all beautiful! I was willing you to buy the tree decoration that was a little tray with teapot and cakes- perhaps buy when you visit with your sister for afternoon tea? I was doing a 'virtual shop' as you went round, imagining myself filling the lovely themed bag with the musical tin, a pretty tea set, loose leaf tea, some mince pies. Thank you so much for sharing, the amount of work you put into these vlogs on top of your fulltime job is definitely appreciated! Would love to see you unpack and taste test at home also ! 🍹🧁🍪🍰🍷
Glad you enjoyed it!! Yeah I like to show things so people can pretend to shop too!
I so enjoyed Fortnum tour. I'm dying of hunger and would love to sample so many things. I'm sure
you realize how lucky you are to live in London with so many beautiful, iconic stores. thanks for sharing, enjoy yourself.
Use to work in Albermarle Street about 5 mins away. Use to sneak out early just before Christmas to get a few treats at F & M before the crowds arrived. Miss those days.
I once splashed out on a F&M Christmas hamper and it doesn’t disappoint. I still have the basket and store my socks in it. If you ever find yourself in London and plan to visit it, please do as it is a wonderful emporium. But please buy something….it gets overrun with visitors who just browse with a camera in their hand and leave empty handed. The store supports the British food industry, and you can play a big part in that too.
Those windows are adorable.
I agree, the tins are gorgeous and such a variety of designs.
I really like the iced cookies. They're fun.
Pickled Brussels Sprouts?! What? LOL.
The Christmas decorations, the wreaths and trees, are amazing.
The dog ornament is certainly quirky.
You're right, I'm very hungry now.
The chocolates were reasonably priced for good chocolate.
Can't wait for the next vlog.
I used to work around the corner from there a long time ago. Many a happy lunch hour was spent wandering around that store.
On my next visit to London after Covid, I'll be sure to visit F & M. Thanks for sharing.🌞
Fortnum & Mason is amazing. A great memory from our visit at Christmas several years ago. The tea was so lovely, we went twice. First full day of the visit, and then, last full day. I am celiac, and they have an amaaaazing gluten free selection. The window displays of "dreaming of food" you showed were just so well done, and adorable. Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories of London!!
There’s so much gluten free in London now! Thanks for watching
I’m so glad I’m not the only person who likes to see what they are buying. I have often wondered if it’s me being strange. The tiny tree decoration hamper was gorgeous. I don’t like chocolate but I do love the marzipan and fudge.
That bag was lovely!! Go back for that one lol Yum on those chocolates 🤩
Hannah, what a lovely video... Thank You!!! I love your hair band thing, it makes you look like a Disney Princess. Much Love
Wonderful! FYI - Spode (which you hadn't heard of) is one of the oldest china companies, and that pattern (The Christmas Tree) has been around for years. Also, you did ask, so this bossy old lady will tell you, that Glace is pronounced Glass-a (with a short northern style glass, rather than glarse, with a at the end! There aren't you glad you've got know-it-alls as subs! Loved this one - the decorations were great and the food that is available in London department stores just can't be beaten. Can't wait for the next one!
i can't wait to live in london for a few years to experience all the afternoon tea, all the royals and adjacent stuff. i recently started watching you and your vlogs are so fun
I might be alone in this but I actually appreciate when companies reuse their decorations year on year as it's so much less wasteful, plus many people in London for Christmas aren't likely to go to all the stores every year.
I do agree too!!
I absolutely adore your vlogs. They are stunning and I love your commentary.
This was so delightful to watch, thank you for sharing.
Beautiful window scenes. They usually leave me cold, but these are heart warming. Lovely stuff.
I swear this is so entertaining and fun to watch. Just pretending I'm shopping in another country 🤣. Just subscribed!!
Thanks for watching!!
@@HannahRicketts Thanks for showing. Personally I could have taken a while longer...
Great trip to Fortnum and Mason!! Beautiful decorations and amazing treats!! Thanks for taking us along!!
Love your hair band!! 🎄💕🎄💕🎄💕
I absolutely love Fortnum & Mason! I'd spend far to much money and enjoyed every minute of it!
Great stuff! So lucky it wasn't too crowded and glad to see all the different chocolates- I couldn't even get to the counters as there were so many people! Guess I'll just have to go back 💁♀️
I got lucky with the crowds!
The shop windows are such an art form and a lot of thought and knowledge and skills has gone into developping them. I love the brocolli my favourite vegetable. Shops shouldn't be against filming inside. They should understand that people who flm and put it up on youtube are just showing other people what it's like who can't actually go and see for themselves
Broccoli is not just my favorite vegetable, it’s my favorite food. Go team broccoli!! 🥦 🥦
It’s because legally the store must not allow the filming of customers and subsequent broadcast without the customers’ knowledge and consent. By allowing you to film but not requiring you to gain customers’ approval they are putting themselves in a grey area. Also, not everyone is going to be saying nice things. some will be slagging off F&M, you could get a Marxist commentary showing customers saying they are the rich exploiting the poor. Etc.
@@tommoncrieff1154 Yes I completely get that about not filming customers. I would hate to find myself on Internet in someone's youtube video when I was shopping or doing anything else and I am a big advocate about personal privacy. The solution would be for these shops to film inside their own shop so you can really see all the products because not all of what they sell is online and you can't feel the atmosphere of Christmas by shopping online it's just not the same feeling.
@@tommoncrieff1154 just out of curiosity…which law are you referring to? I am not aware of any law prohibiting filming inside a store in the UK. A store rule or policy is very different than an actual law. I am also not aware of any law prohibiting filming without consent. I am not saying you are wrong. I would just like to know so I can be informed.
Another Amazing Christmas Vlog……
You a certainly on Santa’s Nice List……
Thank you for sharing……
I bought a Harrods hamper from eBay for a fraction of the price from Harrods. Naturally, there was no longer any food in it, but that did not matter because I wanted the hamper, not the food!
Thank you for the video. I hope your week is epic! The vlog certainly was!
That’s a great way to buy one!!
What a beautiful store! Thank you, Hannah, for taking us along! We always do have Christmas crackers....not the expensive ones, though! It is fun to pull them, read the joke, get the prize and wear the hat through dinner. Enjoyed this so much, thank you!
They do ship internationally. I get a little something sent to me every year :) I always get strawberry rose petal jam and rose and violet creams, then maybe a thing or two else. There are restrictions on what can be sent though, of course.
Greetings from Nova Scotia!🇨🇦. Thank you for allowing us to experience an international adventure - love England !
Man, Fortnum and Mason looks stunning at Christmas time Hannah. I want to go to that chocolate section so bad now to get some tasty chocolates. By the way, love the random commentary it was hilarious. 🦔🎄👍
Thanks Tobie!!
So much to choose from. Take a child and you would be in there for the entire month. Xmas wonderland.
I’m a Brit living in Canada and love Christmas cake and pudding, Canadians however don’t really eat Christmas cake or pudding 😳 you can buy them but most Canadians give it a miss !
My daughter heads for the cheese counter in the food hall. They have an amazing selection.
Love your Fortnum & Mason trips. Panettone is a meh for me too, but I do appreciate their packaging. :)
Oh my goodness!!! I would drop so much money in F&M!! 💸 Loved the tour!! Thank you so much!!!🤗
Hahah he little critters are dreaming, that's very creative!
You are an amazing vlogger !
Fortnum and Mason was lovely. Really like their seasonal window displays. The shopping tour was so well done. Love the marble counters in the chocolate shop. Thank you. Hannah!
How absolutely fun! How could one make up their mind on what to buy! Wow! Thank you Hannah! 😊
such a stunning store and love the xmas lights.Great video 🙂👍☃️🎄🎅
Thank you Hannah! I could not wait for your next video. Hope you had a nice time while not uploading. I am so so soooo looking forwars to your Christmasy videos and London Christmas atmosphere.
If I ever get to travel to London, I want to go shopping with you! I miss these kinds of stores. They are very rare in the States nowadays.
Posh pickles! lol. everything looks amazing.
Oh wow. Absolutely stunning. Thanks Hannah for sharing...
I just love the dept. stores across the pond. They always seem to be lovely and festive, even when it's not Christmas.
I love when you imitate your viewers giving you a hard time, “show the posh honey” 😂
There’s always something someone moans I didn’t show! Lol
This Canadian is really enjoying your vlogs of London, especially your Christmas ones!! Thank you🎄🥰
Oh my goodness Hannah, I love this store and especially at this time of year, it’s my idea of Christmas heaven. You could lock me in there from now until Christmas Eve and I’d be a happy bunny.
Totally gorgeous selections in there, I want at least one of everything haha.
Hopefully I’ll be back in there next Christmas🤞🏻but until then I’ll live vicariously through your beautiful vlogs . Loving the sparkly hair band, you look so stylish xx
Thanks for watching, more to come!!
Love watching your vlogs! Did you not notice that each window was a dream? The animal at the bottom was sleeping and the”cloud” was its dream.
Every time I'm in London I make a beeline to F&M. A much more dignified store compared to Harrods. Not a big fan of the chocolate at F&M, the glace fruits are amazing and almost impossible to find anywhere else.
Oh your a girl after my own heart here💛loved this tour!!!!
Thanks Hannah🎄
Wow! Just stunning! Thank you so much for taking us along with you! Sending you lots of love from Canada! ❤️❤️❤️
@30.13, kicking off in London haha. Nice to see the Christmas decs out
Love F&M... Their windows are stunning this year... Thank you for sharing. Way nicking than Harrods. Thanks for this vlog Hannah 😊... Love your shop vlogs... You make the best ones👍.
Yes, they do ship internationally! I order from them every year.
OH Hannah! Thank you so much - wassn't expecting another vlog uuntil the weekend!
I’m trying 3 or 2 a week!
@@HannahRicketts Well, thank you!.
that was a yummilicious tour of F&M! thankyou Hannah.
So much fun! Thank you for the tour. I liked last year’s exploding hamper better as well, but it’s a pretty display. I don’t blame you for seeing more you’d like! London does Christmas right!
All so beautiful, there is absolutely nothing like this in Australia. Thank you so much for your vlogs and the time you spend on doing them, a lovely respite from all of the covid sh.te..!!
Ps your head band is lovely and your nails are beautiful 🤩..
Thank you for watching!! Really appreciate it!
Your videos are awesome, thank you. I arrive in London on Friday and cannot wait to see the sights and do some shopping.
Thank you for taking us around London … missing travelling and London very much these lovely vids help so much !!
Just love your vlogs Hannah! Really appreciate how much work it is especially on top of your normal job! Hope you enjoyed your chocolates 🍫😋 xx
Oh it's the most enchanting place ever. That will take one back to childhood. I love it
Have not been able to travel back to the Uk for over 2 years from Canada. Thanks for the magical images of Fortnum and masons. Magical!!
Hi Hannah, great vlog, what a beautiful shop that is. I could spend a fortune in there. Enjoy all the goodies xx
Spectacular lights and what an array of goods at F&M's. Your channel is the best antidote to the pandemic Hannah.
Fortnums at Christmas so beautiful 🤩 thankyou so much Hannah.
'Ooh flippin eck someone probably just got shot, nevermind" 😂
If you have stale Christmas cake, steam it , or we warm it in microwave, add ice cream, wonderful.
