Anything you miss about the UK?
Ok, so you now have your new life in Canada!!
Is it what you expected? Is it as good as you had hoped? What do you miss about England? Apart from friends and family!!

Indian Restaurants and decent TV. That's about it.

Beer. (Decent, Cask Conditioned, Readily available.)
I don't miss deja vu though. Lots of that to be found.

M&S deliciously naughty chocolate puddings - you know, the one where Hermione Norris does the sexy, smooth voice-over on the advert? those ones ! Not much else to be honest ... is that sad, or acclimatising?

Being able to dress up on a friday night with my girlfriends and hit the wine bars - oh, and that would be to drink - wine! Lethbridge is a student city, so that isn't done in places where there are people under 35!
Primark.
The seaside (I have always lived a short drive from the sea)
Jees guys, do you know I have been sat here for five minutes staring in to space and that's all I can think of, apart from the people and even then everyone is so busy it's hard to catch up anyway!
I feel a bit sad now that I spent 30 years on and off in a place that held that little for me.
MMMM,
a slightly depressed,
