I was talking to my parents today and come up with the great idea of buying food from tescos online, getting it delivered and she can shove it in a suitcase
Now that's technology! But as Ray says.. no bacon

Re: Tesco
as much as i like Tesco's back in england, and british food - it doesnt really make much difference tescos (its tesco extra - not the supermarkets) coming to USA, as they probably wont stock much (if any) in the way of british food - why should they, they are catering to an american market, so it prob wont be much difference to the 7/11's or other convienience stores around here - shame though, would be nice to get some decent chocolate, walers crisps etc etc
