Oh, and the marmalade just isn't the same on the continent either, so I make my own now if I can't get the English style that I prefer.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477910210382421539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2118670545179447491.post-83472700743984849132013-02-06T15:55:03.706-08:002013-02-06T15:55:03.706-08:00It's an awful thing to have to admit, but when...It's an awful thing to have to admit, but when I've been abroad for a while, in spite of the wonderful 'continental' breads that I love, I get a hankering for an English/British white sliced loaf!!!

But then I haven't needed to go out in it at all, I haven't had to drive to work or to ferry my family around. And we haven't had any power cuts here, though that happened not too far away!<br /><br />The 'amber light' that you mention is the same here with our street lights and it gave the snow the sort of glow that you see in Chrismas cards! Oh dear, I'm just an old romantic :D<br />Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2118670545179447491.post-26925342565127480312013-01-23T15:12:03.142-08:002013-01-23T15:12:03.142-08:00Thank you for sharing this moving post.Thank you for sharing this moving post.Judy Adamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02986456665704994228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2118670545179447491.post-10319096343187999352013-01-22T07:08:27.890-08:002013-01-22T07:08:27.890-08:00Thank you Robin for your kind response.
