Disney crazy fans

Visiting a toy store or any kind of shop that sells childrens' playthings really brought out the kid in us. We stumbled upon a huge Disney store in a shopping complex known as St Enoch. For those who are interested, department stores here in Glasgow are quite 'dead'. They are not like Mid-Valley or 1-Utama in Malaysia whereby the shopping complexes can accomodate a huge number of shops under one roof. Over here, you can actually visit all the stores in just an hour. Moreover, the shops here are pretty dull and uninteresting. Anyway, back to the story, we discovered the Disney store which, as the name suggests, sells Disney-related stuff. They have everything you can ever imagined: from mugs to Disney character costumes to candies. The ubiquitous Disney soft toys are of course available in all sorts of sizes, shapes and colors. It's just like stepping into a wonderland whereby cartoon characters come alive. To cut the long story short, we just fell in love with all the things in the store la. The ang mo lang sure think we are kids and no one will expect that all of us are actually over 20 years old. Here were some of photos that we took in the store....

Janice, Ah Ma, XV, unknown and boss squatting down to take photos with the cute stuffed toys. All of us are fans of Winnie the Pooh and to be surrounded by all these toys are ~~heavenly~~ =.="

Ah Ma bought a Pooh bear wearing a T-shirt with the word 'Glasgow' on it. It costs 15 pounds...@@ something that measures up to only 9 inches is actually worth RM 105!!! How is that so??Mind-boggling isn't it??

And finally, our treasures from the store (We didnt nicked them la of course, we bought them). These cost 10 pounds each. So you can actually imagined how much those Disney money-sucking bosses earn when the labels actually read 'Made in China' =.=' Can't blame them though, it's just us consumers who can't resist cute and kawaii stuff!!
