I won't be back in the country till 4th Jan in the evening so please try not to text me at Christmas or New year. Pretty please it costs me money ( Read more... )

enjoy, especially the *real* German market, rather than the imitation ones we have here in B'ham and Manc with overpriced food n drink n tat!!

Sadly the food here is expensive. Not overpriced by German standards but by ours oh hell yes. So looking at it it just seems they bring the same prices with them to the UK which I guess makes sense as everything costs a lot to buy here.
As to the tat well the markets are full of the same continental tat as we get just without theBritish traders creeping in. Still some nice stuff and if I had more spare cash I'd consider buying more stuff.
The choice of food is much much better though.

Oddly or not guessing you can buy a lot of it in the supermarkets here there are very few stalls selling meats, sausages or cheeses. It really is mostly stuff and if I had a huge suitcase I could buy the most fab cookie cutters and cake tins and other such stuff.
