Why the hell would any one want to shop on a Sunday, it is a rest day in a civilised country.

By the way I miss the school tuck shop.

Our bus service in San Luis Torrevieja is very good.  I miss different kinds of trees such as the Oak and the different colours of the leaves in Autumn.

I miss Marks & Spencer food. Just love all their goodies and those delicious Christmas adverts left me drooling!

Try Iceland (the shop not the place!).....seen it in there a few times. Failing that you could make your own with fresh mint.

In Dia where tea is they have a bix of mint tea bags. I bought them to make mint sauce. I found the leaves larger and stayed hardish compared to the UK jars of ready made but gave us the taste. Possibly find where herbs are(specialty shops), but not supermarkets as I scoured most and couldnt find any. If I was making sauce again from the "tea leaves" I would grind them more and leave to soften in boiling water first.

Regards

Pauline.
