A Wizarding Superstore? Help!

[hamster8 at hotmail.com]

Neil ... "Not so much a superstore (and we do have that sort of thing 
here), but, in London, we have a lot of small shops that sell 
"Everything under a  pound" or "Everything for 50p".     They stock 
the sort of thing I imagine Wal-mart might stock: a mixture of 
tea-towels, huge packs of plastic pegs, hideous china ornaments, cheap 
nail polish, no-brand batteries, novelty mirrors, remaindered books, 
Barbie rejects, fake flowers, chipped crockery, drill bits, sponges, 
noxious perfume, multipacks of nylon underpants, leaky pens, torches, 
bin liners, garden furniture, plastic machine guns, soapdishes,
music boxes... that sort of thing.   That doesn't directly answer 
your question, of course, but I'm sure you could translate some of 
those horrors."

There's one in Brighton called 'Wizard Stores.'  It's signboard has 
all floaty stars and wands and pointy hats on it.  I'll try and get a 
photo to post to the list ... does anybody else suspect the hand of 
Gred n' Forge behind this?
