I happened to mention to DaveMac that I had packed my suitcase and it was half-full of teabags ready to take back to Italy tomorrow and he suggested this might be a good thread idea for those who, like me, are ex-pats or else living away from Accrington and are missing something fundamental.

The tea-bags are 240 PGTips (£4 from Booths on offer) and a pack of Lancashire tea which a friend bought me - should keep me going for a while.
Bear in mind the only decent tea I can get in Italy is 4,50 euros for a pack of 50 - and I am a "right tea-belly" -someone else's description not mine! That's half the story - the truth is you can't beat proper English tea so I do miss it among many other things...

So the question is "What do you miss from home?"
