Just to let you know.....
.....that the PacNSave at Sylvia Park has an "English" section... I havnt been yet but my OH went in his lunchbreak today and has come home with some Angel Delight (mmmmm.... choccy flavour!).... some real Porky Scratchings and I cant remember what else. 
Just thought I'd let you Aucklanders know. But you probably know already so in that case just ignore me.

Dont like the coffee ones in Revels so I always had to bite into each one and then if it was coffee I'd say yuck and put it into the bin.

Re: Just to let you know.....
'Mr Porky'! Now that just cracks me up! 
There's a shop just down the road from us here in Columbo St, ChCh, that is an old style English grocers. He has crap literally piled up all around the place, and it changes week to week. Currently I am in there once a week for a packet of Rowntree Fruit Gums - yummy! All the favouites are there: Tizer, Snickers, Yorkshire Tea, Walnut Whips, Walkers Crisps, Oxo, Bisto, Smash, blah blah blah
He must make a bloody fortune, as Fruit Gums are $2.50, let alone anything else. Worth it though
Oh, and just remembered - he had Refreshers last time I was in and I LOVE 'em.
Have ordered him to get me massive boxes of Haribo Starmix.
GOD I miss Starmix and Fangtastics. And I'm 30! What about the children? WILL SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

Re: Just to let you know.....
Just had a quick look on there. I've not seen Parma Violets for years in the UK. How dare they ship them over there without stopping by my front door first!!!
