Re: What you can't get in Canada

I take it you're not British. While I do like a good bit of European chocolate (Belgique, Suisse, Austrian etc) I was bred on British and I think it's wonderful :thumbsup:

Re: What you can't get in Canada

Great! Thanks!! They've all had a bath. I am now trying to summon up the energy to clean the bath then take my own. I didn't find any more ticks but Esme (the real one!) has a pretty thick coat...

Re: What you can't get in Canada

Re: What you can't get in Canada

I've just seen the Marmite commercial with Paddington Bear - it did make me laugh! (you Canadian residents without UK TV can't see it ;) ). And Marmite's now squeezy! What an innovation!

Re: What you can't get in Canada

Re: What you can't get in Canada

Canadian Chocolate is :thumbdown: - Hershey's makes me puke. I was strictly a "1-2 choc bars a day girl" in the UK. I don't even eat one a week here. The only ones that are passingly good are...
