Materialistic things you miss from your home country

[KZNSeagull]

Decent pies and Pork Pies in particular.
Taking the hounds for long walks on the Downs.

Shopping hours, far too conservative here;
Draught Bitter;
Diversity of vinyl records;
Frequency and cost of touring bands;
Snow;
Decent live football.

On balance however I wouldn't come back if you paid me, 20 years in and Perth is heaven on earth as far as I'm concerned.

I developed a nasty habit of buying Club Orange (imagine Fanta, with lots of orange pulp in it) every time I got back in to Dublin Airport - I would never normally drink it so I dunno where that came from.

There is a craft beer in Barca. Maybe give that a go?

Yes, there are a lot of new beers coming out here as it seems to be the trend. Only problem is, every bar you go to has Estrella. You're lucky if you find anything different.

Thanks for the tip.

Estrella is lovely

Where the heck are you then? Mid West US?

Wales, but I'm not near the sea (it involves an hour's drive as opposed to looking out of my window), so I miss it.
