I just adore garden centres.
What kind of shop could you spend all day in?
Oh! it has to be kitchen gadget shops, you know, all those fancy tools, you have lived without all your life, but now you must have one, I've got drawers full of them, totally useless most of them, Mrs GB won't let me buy anymore!
Reply:Garden shop with live plants. Plants are the only thing that removes the bad air and gives us oxygen.
"Common indoor plants may provide a valuable weapon in the fight against rising levels of indoor air pollution. Those plants in your office or home are not only decorative, but NASA scientists are finding them to be surprisingly useful in absorbing potentially harmful gases and cleaning the air inside modern buildings."
"NASA research has consistently shown that living, green and flowering plants can remove several toxic chemicals from the air in building interiors. You can use plants in your home or office to improve the quality of the air to make it a more pleasant place to live and work - where people feel better, perform better, any enjoy life more."

Reply:The only shops that I could potentially spend all day in are the traditional markets found mostly in poorer countries. Particularly if they have traditions in fine textiles, the arts, or unique exotic spices and produce. We recently visited Peru, and took a day trip which spent a good deal of time at some of the traditional Andean markets at Chinchero and Pisac. These held my interest long after we heard the bus driver who was waiting for us honking his horn for us to come back.
"Peruanos" in particular have spectacular methods of weaving textiles. In Chinchero, they put on a demonstration for us where they showed step by step how they create their beautiful works. They took some raw alpaca wool and created thread using a tool that they made themselves out of wood. Then they showed us their methods for creating natural dyes. The formulated around 8 different colors all using natural methods. Several came from flowers, which they would put in hot water to create the dye. Then perhaps by adding some lemon or lime juice they would alter the color. One which was particularly fascinating they got by removing a parasite from a local cactus and crushing it which then revealed a strikingly crimson red. We certainly gained better appreciation for their works (and made a few purchases!) after seeing this demonstration at Chinchero in Peru.
We've had similarly interesting experiences while visiting the local markets in other countries such as Bolivia, Costa Rica, Jamaica, and Granada.
