Well my kids have been hinting to their nan about the stuff they miss, so she gathered a few things together , boxed them up and sent them... It took 2 weeks to get here. At a cost of £44.67 :eek :eek :eek :eek

Poor mum.... She probably fell through the floor when told. I think the amount of the sent goods amounted to approx £10 in total.

So you may want to leave some funds back in the Uk, with the desired person who gets the job of sending the goods to the desperate kids. :laugh

If you have had your post redirected it's not a problem. You get the person in the Uk to post it 2nd class to your old address and bingo - it arrives less than a week later. Certainly makes up the cost of the redirection very quickly :clap

May get sister in law to do the redirection thing, we were going to do a swap, she fancies trying tim tams and toffy pops, we can get bounty bars and thorntons toffee!

[Jennie & Rob]

JubJub - check out your local stores - we can buy bounties in our local dairy. I'll post you some from here if you are desperate!

[jubjub]

Ta for the offer Jennie, Bountys are for hubby, and he has tried them here, but like the Cadbury, it just not the same. :wah

I'm going to be sooooooooo thin without Cadbury's, bounty's etc etc. :clap :clap :clap

£44.97 I'm in shock

The box contained;

2 Pot noodle - weightless really

1 pkt (7) 2 finger kit-kat.

2 family bars of cadbury chocolate

1 family packet of maltesers

1 box of pg tips t-bags (180)

1 packet (6) walkers cheese n onion crisp :clap :clap :clap :clap

So not a great deal really, but the best pressy we have had since we got here. :nice1 :nice1

[jubjub]

Cheese and Onion??

Don't eat them all Jan, I am on my way..... just need to get some more petrol in the wagon.....

Don't they sell walkers crisps in NZ?

If the answer to that queation is no then my middle son Mika is going to throw a total wobbly and refuse to go! He is a crisp fiend and loves his walkers!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd better not tell him!

[K&CS]

Bounty Bars? Ooh, they are the devil's food! The only ones that are ever left over in a box of Celebrations!

Whatever you find here it is never quite the same as what you get back home.

We are yearning for Malaysian Nescafe! It sounds to trivial but I can't start my day without a good cuppa! The Nescafe here just smells and tastes so different.

Marcia, there are a number of shops called UK foods here, that sell tons of UK products at a price :eek :eek :eek

It may work out at £1 for a pack!!!! :eek So you , I , tend to steer clear of the place. Only for treats. :nice1
