Most fresh foods in our supermarkets are 'naked' here, though still some 'stuff' is packed in larger quantities. <br /><br />France also recycles so much more that what we can recycle in Devizes when staying with FIL. They just do not take away many things that we recycle here!!<br /><br />Have a great weekend and take care DianeRhodesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00159888599601532530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090635066385895666.post-81685511499584532972018-02-10T01:33:28.279+01:002018-02-10T01:33:28.279+01:00I have a hard enough time ordering shoes online no...I have a hard enough time ordering shoes online no way food.

Sadly the German one sells very few true German items but (probably not to the French taste) but what they so sell is excellent. We had great German shops in RSA and our favourite was always Weisswurst (which I have never seen here) and also rye bread. The latter is not easy to get locally.

We've also drastically cut down our supermarket shopping, at least until they get themseves sorted out with their excessive use of plastics. We're now tending to use small local stores, and trying where possible to put things 'naked' into the shopping basket and transeferring them into one of Lindsay's home-made cloth shopping bags as they pass through the till.<br /><br />Having made a couple of comments/replies on blogger, I now see that you are still suffering the aftermath of your ills, with a cough. I hope it clears up soon - what you need is some fine, warm, sunny weather!<br /><br />With my very best wishes - - - RichardRichard Peglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05115206853645323899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090635066385895666.post-47619243007243753182018-02-09T06:35:35.811+01:002018-02-09T06:35:35.811+01:00Hi Diane.

I always hunt for bargains, the more expensive things seem to be at eye level so you take them automatically. I look high and low literally:-) Most of the tits and the robin seem to disappear in spring, not sure where they go to. We end up with masses of sparrows but as long as there is life in the garden with insects as well I do not mind.
