I'm an expat and I need...

[Jessiedog]

Right then.

I've been giving this some thought.

Can anyone get those old Terry's Chocolate Orange thingys?

I haven't tasted them in years.

One would be fantastic.

Two would be double fantabulistic!



Please?



Woof

[moonsi til]

I would like colemans english mustard powder, and Butterscotch flavour digestive biscuits, like on the other thread!

Rennie, have more kuru yemek shops round here than you could shake a stick at. What kind of nuts you after? Sunflower/pumpkin seeds etc also available.

Anyone want Turkish stuff? Not Turkish Delight tho, am afraid, wrong neck of the woods.

All wrapped and ready to go......
