I’m making a shopping list for our trip home. There are several things I want that I can’t find here. Godiva Pearls, for example. Harrod’s carries Godiva, but they don't have the little chocolate BB pellets in purse-sized tins. I’ll stop by the Dress Barn and grab a year’s supply of nylons. I’m sure if I made an effort, I could find pantyhose here that fits. But why bother when Dress Barn carries what I need? Altoids Gum is on my list as well. It’s sad the “Curiously Strong” English mints and gum are no longer sold in England. They're almost extinct in the US, too. I plan to stop by Pirate O’s and buy them out, just like last year. When we’re ex-expatriates Pirate O’s will find us very loyal customers, because they also carry McVities Jaffa Cakes, Bassett’s Licorice Allsorts, Wensleydale Cheese and the other British products I’ve become addicted to.
