Candylicious... And Victoria's Secret....


Last night I did two of the most enjoyable things in the world..  I went and did all my shopping in Victoria’s Secret (and I will leave that right there – I normally do this on my US jaunts but to my absolute delight there is one in Malaysia) AND I spent an hour walking around a magical shop called “Candylicious”.
Honestly, Candylicious is the happiest place on earth.  As a kid, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was my favourite movie (the original, obviously, I am old and Johnny Depp’s was not around back then..  And his was rubbish anyway).  This shop is the essence of Willy Wonka’s factory..  All that was missing was the oompa loompas...  And Charlie and his Grandfather.
To be clear; I am not a big chocolate fan at all.  If I eat sweet things, I actually prefer Gummy Bears and the like, but I walked around this place for an hour, YES, an hour, and marvelled in the 1000’s of different types, designs and brands of candy (okay, lollies) and chocolate….
The music suited the place!  I did a jig to Ghostbusters, I shimmied to the Spice Girls and I hummed soulfully to Brother Iz’s remake of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”.  All the while as excited as a kid in a candy store.  Oh, that’s right, I was.
