HI
I was just wondering, if you could take just one material thing that you can't get in Oz, what would it be?

Think it would have to be the photo albums and family videos.
Anything else can always be replaced with time and money

You can buy Yorkshire tea out here in some of the shops. The tea isn't much different and I am a tea expert!!! Mind you I have gone from about 8 cups a day to 3.

You can't seem to get Bisto gravy granules and proper Marmite though.

I'd take Arbys with me I'm not sure if Arbys is in the UK but I love their food!

The other good American product, Jim Beam, is widely available in Australia and for that, I give thanks.
