Things I miss

Aren't necessarily what I was expecting to miss.

In no particular order...

1. Spicy food - I have finally realised you can have too much cheese, and bread and pastry too, for that matter. As for beans and rice...

2. Pubs of Highgate - needs no explanation, except perhaps to say that the 'choppe', or tiny glasses of beer served here with oodles of head, are no match for a decent pint

3. Cheap books - even in Portuguese, books are still seen as a luxury. None are cheap and there are certainly no one pound classics

4. Not a lot else besides friends and family. Even Sundays are alright here, although they didn't have to be that great to beat Sundays in London, a day which can turn anyone into Morrissey even in the summer.

  1. Perhaps you should compile a growing list of things you miss and show it on the side of your blog? That way it can become a "wish list" for visitors to buy you things from.

  2. This is a good idea - how can I do this??

  3. Go to design or setup and you can enter a new item on the side of your blog. It should be quite self explanatory.
