Ha ha, not to rub it but look what I've got coming home to me on Wednesday! Can't wait! Oh and there's oxo cubes and gravy in there somewhere and some gravey bones for the pooch

Wait til it gets in your hand before celebrating, the CBSA might poop on that parade

Crikey, what do you declare on your customs form for that lot!

Hope it's all okay to bring into the country. When I was filling in the form I noticed it said something about dairy products. When I got to the counter I forgot I had cartons of baby milk in our luggage. The guy said it was no problem, but then added a very stern "please remember next time".

Yeah, OH is sorting all that out today before he flies tomorrow. Fingers crossed it gets through Am in desperate need of some decent chocolate!

That's not good as most of what he's got is dairy products.

Chocolate should be OK shouldn't it? Dairy stuff such as milk, cheese, yoghurt etc fair do's but chocolate? I'd be more concerned about the gravy bones! Besides, I buy gravy bones in the supermarket here anyway. Hope it all gets through! Enjoy!

Yeah I think the chocolate should be ok because he brought some back last month, when he was over. But he did buy it from duty free Oh well....what will happen, will happen

Poor pooch! He needs his gravy bones! Haven't been able to find any anywhere here in London, ON

What the heck are gravy bones? Do they contain real meat/bones?? Or are they a manufactured food? "Real" animal parts are not gonna be allowed methinks.

Edit: enjoy the choccie though!

They are just a dog biscuit with a dry gravy coating. I have an empty box at the bottom of my recycling bin (out of reach) so can't check contents but guessing theres some of meat content in the gravy.

As long as you declare it I think all of it is admisable, they have a web site which you can check

I bring in stilton every time I go to the UK as 'some' dairy products are allowed

just declare it they'll tell you if there is an issue and they'll be quite polite about it too..

Hence the word MIGHT in my post above

I have to say, I think you should share some of that with a pregnant Brit nearby....

There are a couple of British shops in London, and you can get a few bits at Bulk Barn too. Actually, a friend told me the other day that there's a special temporary 'Taste of Britain' section in the Walmart at Argyle Mall at the moment. I'm not allowed to go there unsupervised

Then send the OH there with a list

Awesome!!!!

Well if we meet up soon, I'll be more than happy to share some. You'll have to be quick though or there will be none left!
