Nothing. Whatever you forgot/need/miss can always be found on the www (even if it's at a stupid premium).

I can honestly say there is not one single item that I have thought - "oh my goodness, I really, really neeeeeed that"

Now I come to think about it...... heat magazine.

The trash mags here just aren't as good, and while I can read a load of rubbish on The Daily Mail's web, it's not the same as curling up on a sofa with a cuppa and a mag full of nothing.

I looked at a subscription - £200 for a year to Australia!

Yup, that's all. She texted me the other week saying 'enough's enough, get your f******* arse back here NOW' I replied by saying 'you can afford it, get your arse over here to see me, selfish cow'. Didn't get a reply to that one
