Apart from friends and family, I miss:
Late-night supermarkets
Knowing where to buy what clothes at which prices (if you've worked it out - please let me know)
Having a wide choice of newspapers
Comedy (although CNNNN and Kath and Kim aren't half bad)
Sophisticated adverts (will scream if I see another ad for the bloody ab-swing)
Golden Virginia
Things I love here are:
Good Sammys/Vincent De Paul/The Salvos/Cash Convertors - for furniture etc on the cheap
Variety of fruit and veg available
Indoor beach volleyball
Lower speed limits (a wuss, I know)
Having a balcony over-looking a pool
All in all we don't do much different here to what we did in the UK, but we are very new here and expect there will be a lot to add to these lists over the coming months.
