I really miss British TV,especially Corrie. And cornish pasties, Hollands pies, Mr Kiplings cakes, sherry trifle, proper chips ( fat ones oozing dripping and malt vinegar), roast lamb with mint sauce and roast spuds, treacle pud and custard!! For my husband it is his Maynards wine gums and for my son his Walkers ctips and pickled onion Monster Munch. And English tea. But I do get well supplied by forum members.
Oh and I would agree about a decent curry. I live here BTW, never m missed anything when I was on joliday.

No...........Can't think of anything I miss at all at the moment

Perhaps if I stayed longer, and the pennies ran out I might realise there was something[msnsad]

The only thing we (as a family) tend to comment on, when in Florida, is the lack of fresh cream (as in a bowl of strawberries and cream as a dessert) and fresh cakes that actually taste of anything.

And to be honest, if that is all we can find to comment on, then we don't actually think it is much of a hardship.

However, when we get back home, then that is where the fun really starts. How many times have we said 'If only we were back in Florida, the choice would have been so much greater' ?

I'd swap my lifestyle to live out there, at the drop of a hat.

I agree, but I don't like the typical English Chocolate either - too rich and too milky (Mars Bar-ugh![xx(]). I prefer really dark, bitter chocolate, preferably with a bit of liquer [:P][:P].
