The holiday board is quiet now the kids are back at school. Anyway am going next week and was wondering if there's anything that you found that was lovely that we don't see here, that will fit in my bag on the way back lol! Things like soaps, creams, scarves maybe, I dunno. Tell me!

Thanks.

If there's a food market, a huge slice (or six) of torrone. The stuff you can buy here labelled as Italian nougat is rubbish compared to the goodies I've bought when in Italy.

Shame about the dairy thing, I always bring back huge amounts of cheese. I assume thats still going to be the case next week?

I think I'll have to pay for another suitcase at this rate! Thanks for all the ideas. So much for seeing the sights in Rome, I'll have to find a decent supermarket first! Imagine saying that's what I did in Rome lol, but I do enjoy pottering around the food shops, the stuff is so different! I take note about the banned stuff and will resist, but will buy some to try in the hotel room, Must have a balcony picnic/aperitivo! I have noted the other items also, and if they fit, in the case they'll go!

Thank you all again, appreciate it.
