It's expensive and it's also dependent on the whims of the proprietor and when he decides to reorder and replace things. <br /><br />But they do have things like ginger nuts and Roses' Marmalade, two things I am sadly addicted to...He is also the only one on the island who carries Splenda, which I also use quite a bit of...<br /><br />(There's even a wide range of Iceland frozen foods, meaning sometimes you can actually - at great expense- eat "just like" in Britain!)truestarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00147210730080999426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834521079833788561.post-29201806478669435232010-07-03T22:45:28.795+03:002010-07-03T22:45:28.795+03:00Sometimes I'd give anything to have a British ...Sometimes I'd give anything to have a British corner shop.
