Thanks, everyone, for all the suggestions!
Also, I was talking to a friend on Friday who mentioned she's had
great success bringing over packages of "Jelly Bellies" jelly beans.
She says you can't get them in Britain (and they actually are quite
good).
Apropos of Hogwarts, I've seen Jelly Bellies packages of "Bertie
Bott's Every Flavor" beans -- though they thoughtfully leave out all
the nasty ones :) Is there really no one doing that in Britain?
ObCostume: the actual spur to planning this trip is the Mediaeval
Dress and Textiles Society meeting on March 11th, which is on
"Knitting before 1600." The last time I was in England -- or, indeed,
anywhere in Europe -- was 1970, so this will be quite exciting. I've
got about half a week in London and half a week out in the
countryside planned.
