Re: Oh I really miss !!!!!!
Can understand that! When we were in NZ a few months ago I was appalled at the cost of books, especially kids' books. Assuming we eventually get a visa, my pre-emigration shopping is going to include one huge order of children's books from The Book People to go straight into the container!
For myself, I mostly get ebooks now though.

I went digital with books. I refuse to buy them at the price they offer books in NZ. I used to love browsing in bookshops though!

forget the 'super store' book shops.........if you love books then Hay on Wye HAS to be THE place. Sort of place you turn up to and loose yourself

If they were feeling extra fancy pants it had coconut sprinkled on but then it might have gone by another name.

Krispy Kreme ? Dunkin doughnuts ? Yuck ! Get real. To much like cake. Doughnuts should have a doughy (hence the name), chewy quality - yum yum.

I like them but they've gone the way of doughnuts for me here in NZ. I just don't like them enough to be bothered to bake them. Same for making my own doughnuts too. Anyway, I'm supposed to be going on a health kick !
