    This might be a good idea for a thread?

    A place where we can exchange things or buy/sell stuff from/to other members, like if you have really delishus caek, or music, whatever.

    It's a great idea though I can see one small drawback.

    I don't particularly want this book 'Goth Chic' I bought recently and would happily swap it for something better

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Goth-Chic-Connoisseurs-Guide-Culture/dp/085965382X

    but it's getting around the PM me if you want my address etc bit I am not so sure about

    Sell it via paypal; post it with no return address. That way, the ogres won't find you.
    If I were dead, could I do this?

    I tried some on my last visit and kinda liked it yeah. I enjoy savory things. But really I was just thinking about something distinctly English that I'd have a hard time finding in Miami. Alison tweeted something about Marmite the other day and it jogged my memory.
    I'm curious though, what other things would you consider terrifically English? I really enjoyed my visit there:)

    One major questions in order to answer that: Do you prefer sweet or savoury?

    Based on that I'll through some options at you!

    And Jaffa Cakes :) they are wonderful!

    Can't believe Carpy hasn't mentioned Tunnocks! (I'm not a fan myself but don't tell him, or softlad, or was it Sartori? Don't tell anyone)
