Packing Lists: Creature Comforts for North Americans
  • Tip Rating:





  • Miscellaneous: Facecloths: They don't use facecloths in most places throughout the UK. So bring one if you can't go without. Do not decide it's a good idea to use the hand towel instead to vigorously scrub because you'll get bright red scuff marks all over your face right before the big VT meet where people take photos like crazy.

    Coffee Cream: Another thing they go without in the UK. Not even Starbucks has cream for the coffee here. After a week of nothing but milk in your coffee, you'll be dying for that creamy rich taste! Steal packets of Coffee Mate to bring with you. Better yet, bring a flask and fill it with cream from a corner store.

    Rootbeer: Ummm.... Better to just forget about trying to order a rootbeer anywhere. Have one before you go over.

     I meant to ask you, do you think it was Wapping where they dumped the bodies in "Eastern Promises"? It looked sort of familiar...

     Excellent & thorough tips. I must visit the Temple church. Round churches are very unusual... it's been on my list for ages. You can't have seen my shoes.....

     LOL - "pasty belly" - must be an Irish thing cuz my hubby does the same exact thing!! :) I guess if your spittle can only reach the 1st few rows of your audience, your next best bet IS to blind them!! :D BTW, have you read Rotten's bio? SuPERB.
