Hey what happened to Aunt Jemima syrup? You used to be able to get it here, not you can only find maple.

Speaking of things that have disappeared, anyone else notice all the deodorant sticks have mysteriously vanished, only roll-ons and sprays left? Odd

Same here. I really miss the European summer, a lot more to do. Lying on the grass have a glass or two.. Cycling around..

Also the sunday locally produce food market- herby sausages, home-made antipasti, rare breed poultry. And yes, can't find any crumpets here!

I can't find any Indian Restaurants served curry with chips..

Would actually help if you were wearing something other than just a rain coat at the time!

climber... you always talking about portillo's KILLS me. I'd pay just about anything for a hot dog from portillo's about now. and the fries. OMG portillo's fries. and their chocolate cake is pretty good too... ok i'm done now.

sylvesterjay: I got aunt jemima syrup at oliver's a couple weeks back.

Now if only gateway can come through on the US pepsi (they are working on it they say) I can live my life in HK in peace.

You can't get clothes or shoes for the larger person without some difficulty. I am a shoe size 7-8 UK, and clothes size 20-22. M&S do a few things, but I am not an M&S fan. I have had some things taylor made for work, but when it comes to jeans and knickers, going to have to get brought from the UK with visitors, as I cannot find anything available online or in the shops. I moved over with one suitcase of 23kg and so could only bring the bare essentials. Fortunately have enough knickers for now!!!
Other than that, found everything I need available or some sort of substitute.
