No, relax, it’s a mammoth.
There is no light brighter than that which you turn on at 2am to adjust the heat in your hotel room.
There is no object harder than that into which you collide at 2am after turning off the light in your hotel room.
My goodness, my feet ache. As do my calves. Yowza. This is quite unusual.
Granted, I did cover 7½ kms on foot today.
Partial success in my quest to try #Vimto! Thanks to discovering H Mart in Mayfair Mall (seems much like T&T Supermarket), I have got some #Ribena made in Malaysia. No sign of the Holy Grail, however.
Meanwhile, in same aisle, Aha carbonated fruity water, in Lime/Watermelon flavour!
Also, what has to be the most inherently dangerous beverage in the world, Marble Pop. You unwrap the plastic around the mouth, then you push down on the top and a marble fires itself into the narrow collar of the neck as the air pressure is released. Apparently it’s a “Codd-neck bottle,” and is designed to hold the marble against a rubber washer to seal the drink inside. You break the seal, so the marble drops and also gets out of the way as the drink comes out. I still find the sound and vibration terrifying.
There are a few places in Victoria you must go to, in my view, and they form the Triumvirate of All Things Good: chocolate (Rogers), books (Munro’s), and coffee (Murchie’s).
Four images.

Also, if you don’t at least go into Munro’s, HOW DO YOU CALL YOURSELF HUMAN‽‽
