If the lid is tight have you got the mussels to open it after all this time?

Get him to bring some Easter Eggs back! The big boxed ones (not creme egg size) - they don't have them here. We did that once and people in the office were amazed.
Also box or tin of Miniature Heroes - they were also a big hit in my office. Along with crisp flavours such as prawn cocktail and cheese & onion!

How strange!

I remember buying big Easter eggs in a box for my daughter back in the 1980s, I usually bought the ones that contained chocolates inside.

The chocolate egg and the chocolates would last her for months

Are they really not available now?

My wife arrived home last week with 3 large boxed Easter eggs (galaxy, dairy milk and mini-eggs). Not sure where she got them, but they won't last months.

Walmart on Mississauga Road in Brampton has British section with dairy milk, flakes, beans, marrow fat peas, HP sauce, ginger crunch creams etc

And I picked up some Easter eggs at the weekend from Mississauga. http://www.britishgrocerwholesale.com/
