white "chocolate" has no cocoa in it really.... there is no chocolate taste.

i'd google for it but feeling lazy today. :p iirc it's only the cocoa butter/ fat from the cocoa bean and none of the "chocolate liquor".

Perhaps Dogbyte can bring some Garibaldi's over when he comes to live. I'm never going to get any at this rate!

Not to mention the clothes!!

Every time Ii go back to London I just drool - so many stylish clothes to choose from.

I guess you can get nice things in the big cities here too*, but where I am it's just dreary.

(* I remember seeing some gorgeous outfits in Seattle when I was there a couple of years ago - ditto Chicago and NYC - though I never actually see anyone *wearing* such outfits...)

You certainly don't see anyone wearing stylish clothes here!
What shops did you see, as I haven't seen any :unsure:
