Becky and I are off to my home town tomorrow, arriving on Wednesday. I’ve packed the bags; Tim Horton’s cappuccino, Ziploc freezer bags, and Hershey chocolate bars (although I can’t understand that preference myself). I shall return with a variety of Cadbury’s chocolate, an anorak for Becky, BBC DVDs, and underwear from Marks and Spencers. Yes, I know you can buy Cadbury’s chocolate here (Canada) but it is rubbish. It is a pale shadow of the original. Until you’ve tasted a fresh Crunchie from the factory, tasted molten chocolate from the Cadbury pipes, or mixed your very own wierd chocolate bar, you haven’t lived (in my rather biased chocolate-dipped opinion).
I’m interested to see if I can write a post from there; it would be my first international blog. I have adapters for both the plug/outlet differences and the voltage differences. Hopefully I can keep my iPod charged while I’m over there (and not blow the circuits). I’ll let you know how it goes.
Yippee!! Going home!!!
Life with Becky 
Have a wonderful time Cheryl! Say hi to the aunties.
Thanks, Karen. I’ll definitely say, “hi” for you.
Isn’t that the “Floosie in the Jacuzzi”? Have a great trip dearest, and I’ll see you when you get back.
Good memory! Yes, the lovely nickname given by the locals to the statue in front of the Council House in Victoria Square.
