I’m in Australia. I’ve been reading through the Christmas message boards because, well, I love Christmas.

I see in the UK there is a lot of talk of reserving slots at supermarkets to get Christmas shopping, and talk of some pre-cooked items being ordered from those supermarkets too.

My question is, how do you know what is available? Is there a Waitrose Food Catelogue or M&S Booklet you can look over and select choices?

I’m curious, and would love to look over it, if this exists. Nice to get new ideas for Christmas food, and to dream of what it would be like if we had the same here!

I've just cooked some pigs in blankets for pre-basketball snacks for DS2! We can buy them ready-assembled and just bung them in the oven!

If you go through a proxy server (google proxy servers and choose a uk / eu server) you should be able to view UK versions of websites and access all of the Christmassy goodness!

Thank you! I have been looking through the amazing M&S food - I wish I could buy or make it all!

If there is still anyone who could send me the magazines, I would still happily pay for them and be very grateful.

Thank you Peridot that is so generous of you, especially as I am sure you will already have a suitcase full. I’ll PM you now.

The Sainsbury's one is out too. I never buy anything, but love looking through them!
