Finally, At Last ……..

It’s finally happened, after years of pining for his beloved Motor World Christmas Nativity window Nigel has finally found a window in Evesham that has once more captured all the awe and wonder he has soooooooo missed.

Gummy Gumdrops, our confectionary emporium of choice, has come up trumps, in spades!

Mr Gumdrops had told us a while back that plans for something very special were a foot, but nothing could have prepared us, especially Nigel for the spectacle that was finally unveiled.

Before us was a complete animated and illuminated Christmas village,  complete with Santa flying in his sleigh, a Ferris Wheel, merry go round, skating rink, shops and houses, and train line complete with tunnel, it has absolutely everything and is truly magical.

Nigel on first seeing it was in turn both mesmerised and very, very tearful …….. it a moment charged with emotion.  Christmas had finally come “home” for the little fella.

It is a place for Nigel to loose himself for hours on end, and the fact that it is in a sweet shop window is just an added pleasure. It has to be said that the car spares, spray paint, roof racks, anti freeze and tree shaped air fresheners of Motor World never had much thrall for Nigel. Mr Gumdrops has done good, very good!
