Time Team the other night did an excavation at a village called Glendon in Northamptonshire.
There is a shop in Sydney which sells food and other things from England and yesterday I treated myself to a Fry's Choolate Cream Bar. I loved them when I was a kid but they are not on general sale in Australia these days. I bought hubby some Alpen (muesli) and some Polo mints. Memories!
I joked to the woman in the shop that I wished it was licenced so I could get hubby some English beer. She then wanted to know where he was from. 'Newcastle'. 'So Brown Ale, then. Where in Newcastle?' 'South Shields'. 'I'm from Whickham'.
