the best present I ever got from the US was brought back by a friend who'd
been back to see her folks- it was a bumper size pot of dried cat nip!
fantastic as I just couldn't find it over here (short of growing it, which I
now do
(or try to, but the cats of course keep eating it)),
"IT IS an abomination!! I think white chocolate is pure evil disguised

confectionery!!"
white chocolate is fabulous - and a friend gave me a hot chocolate gift box
from whittards of chelsea that had white hot chocolate in it - it's fabulous -
honestly is like liquid milky bars and I'm addicted already (you can bet I'll
be shaving up milky bars when I run out!!)

you can get brownies, but they're not 'real' ones, according to an american
friend who lives here.
"I bring; Irn Bru, yummy cheese, chocolates, Scottish
Blend tea, Jaffa Cakes and different flavored crisps"
when I was little, we used to give irn bru to friends in the south, because
you couldn't get it down there.
you don't have flavoured crisps??

yes, and wouldn't you know it whan I was a brownie the uniform was a horrible
brown shirt dress that was about upper thigh length. and my girl guides
uniform still had the horrid granny hat.
