yes but its harder for a pickpocket to get your wallet when looking at a watch on your wrist rather than stood in a crowd gawping up in teh air at a clock.The last time that clock was up pickpocketing was so rife the police had to put posters up in the arndale near the clock warning about pickpockets operating there

Its not about shopping, its about getting your butt outside and interacting with people instead of becoming a hermit sat in your flat behind a PC screen

Re: Arndale Clock....Save it or scrap it?
I spend an unusually large amount of time asleep (medical reasons)
I do read a lot too.
As for socialising - I would rather avoid the 'masses'- they have 'nasty vibes'
