mshaw Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I miss my family, friends and people in general. I do miss a good cup of tea, chocolate and good fish and chips. Hey Funkee 88 I'm in Florida too, Do you have Publix Grocery stores up in Pensicola, they now carry a British food section including Digestive biscuits, Hobb Knobs and chocolate. How did you fair in the Hurricanes last year, I'm in Lake Worth, we got hit by two in 3 weeks I was ready to move back to the UK, but I would miss the warmth.

BILDEBORG Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 For me it has to be Henderson's relish, proper bread cakes and Wards beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MondoKane Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I was so glad to go, yet now Ifind myself looking back with so much fondness. Most of what I miss has been separated from me by time though, not distance... I miss the Wap, The Drop (at the City Hall Ballroom) and later the Corporation, live music at the Hallamshire, going to Everest for a curry, the whole Devonshire Green area before it became uber-trendy, stumbling home at night down streets so familiar that no amount of booze could make you go astray, having to hide in public places to avoid running into past loves, and the most loyal and caring group of friends in the world. All my college days and time spent biding my time on the dole line... dark days, though never to be forgotten. Back in those days it was like every day was an episode of Spaced... I'd love to go back and visit (I'd kill for a time machine to do it all over again too), but I guess I'm afraid of how much will have changed. Perhaps the memories will have to be enough... But man, what memories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatross Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Hey Mondo I know what you mean used to love the Everest back in the old days when Max had it. Had lock ins there with him and been sat chattin comming out about 6am lol Hey whats the furthest anyone has found Hendersons Relish for sale. I just found a shop in Langley British Columbia that sells it. Was getting worried as I only brought 6 bottles with me when I moved here and you can't eat meat and tater pie without it.

My son lives in Port Coquitlam and is visiting for Thanksgiving. If you wouldn't mind giving me the name and address of the shop I'll see if he can bring some. I'm not sure where Langley is in relation to Vancouver so I don't know whether this will happen or not. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bargoboy Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 What i miss are the walks around Derbyshire,the people of Sheffield. I think the thing that i miss most is cod & chips nobody seems to know how to make good crispy batter here.I also miss the good old days of toast & dripping.

kal77uk Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Hi, I miss the old fish and chip shop opposite the bus station, joined with the car park. Kent has got nothing like it. Kal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadgobby Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I miss cosiness, cosy pubs,they'awful now ,Imean most young people wouldn.t know what a decent pub is ,in the past they never had ear drum smashing music,they did'nt have cigrerette machines,they did'nt sell chemical beer. they were for proper drinkers,not **** head yobs hooligans.i used to go to pubs and meet intresting people,not people sitting on the floor drinking out of tins,i can;t stand it, young people ruin pubs. i miss company,i feel nostalgic for genuinely interesting people,genuine bohemians .now they:re full of creeps,I miss conversation,not ''what do you do''every one has to have some sort of job that they can quickly describe as if that some how sums them up for the other person,i mean life isn,t just about working,there,s no virtue in work for its own sake its a myth that was invented by people like d.h. lawrence to keep people down the coal mines. now go and get a nice glass of something to drink ,sit by a log fire with a good book and be cosy for ***** sake.
