When my Canadian rellies come over to England, all they want is Cadbury's Dairy Milk! Aparently you can buy it over there, but it doesn't taste the same. Sue xx

What do you rush into the nearest supermarket for when you get back to the UK? -Here goes 1. 'Branston' Pickle - chunky of course 2. Cheddar cheese - the real stuff 3. Something to make decent gravy with (from a tin!) 4. Custard 5. a few packs of cornish wafers (otherwise what would I do with the cheddar and branston?) 6. Suet (can't do a stew without the dumplings) 7. apple turnovers with real cream Just as well I don't go shopping too often in the UK ;o)))) Carole
