lol trefusis. We've done this too and they've gone down so well in our local pub (where my sister works), that they now sell them!!
You can also buy Nambarrie tea online - that's what I miss the most as well as a decent wheaten bread and Veda!

Hello from Co Down

You'd need to be careful you get Tayto from the right side of the border, as they are 2 different companies!

wow Tayto on the internet Brilliant! I didnt know they were two different companies SL. Are they really different tastes? cor learn something new and useful everyday.

well just found a link to the company in Dublin here it is. the link trefusis gave is for the NI company. Cor how to confuse people eh

Dull story - my neighbour retired 10 days ago after 37 years with Tayto! They taste much the same though I think I should have a cheese and onion tasting soon. I wonder if you can get NI taytoes over the net in the Republic? Or would they be stopped at customs.

Hi! Quite new to Mumsnet and am obviously from Dublin originally living in northwales now. Had no idea you could order tayto on the internet - so cool. Does anyone living in UK now miss Superquinn sausages as much as I do? Am very naughty, have turned into an expert sausage smuggler when we go back by ferry! Irish sausages taste so much better though dont they?!

On the ferry ??

I just put them in my suitcase and hope for the best.

In Surrey.

Good God! If you got stopped you'd be hung drawn and quartered! Besides if you go by ferry you can bring a cooler box to put in the car and make sure they're not all icky by the time you get back!

They have a cell waiting for me in the Tower of London, won't mind if I caught I could do with the break.

love irish sausages and cheese.All meat tastes better imo Does anyone remember brown lemonade?

Know how you feel. Am hiding out up here on the computer to avoid sorting out the house. Have a nasty allergic reaction to house-work which is not good at the moment! We're getting a re-mortgage and the valuers will be ringing any day now to book an appointment so it really needs to be sparkly clean and shiny... I just can't get motivated though as only finished work for week and am wrecked (do 3 days but they're 10 hour shifts).

brown lemonade? only remember red and white! DP thinks it's hilarious when he asks for lemonade in his drink in Dublin and he gets an option of red or white - only white over here - think the brown would blow his mind totally!

maybe red and white are the same?Brown looked like cold tea this was in the north

nope definitely red lemonade and white lemonade by TK mind you not the other cheapy stuff, never seen the brown one - got me curious now. Do they still do it up north? go up quite regularly - LOVE Belfast (Red Panda is best chinese in the world, just over the road from Europa Hotel!)

I think they do.I haven't been over for a few years but plan to next year so will stock up!Tayto are the best crisps and I love dulce the one you get here is not the same

Someone told me -unless im hallucinating- that you can get red lemonade over here now in O'Briens Sandwich Bars. I'm just on the North Wales/Chester border so when I go into Chester this weekend I might have a nose and see. It's funny the things you miss about home. I've been here for a year (moved when I was 5 months pregnant) and although I've settled in and love it here, I still think of Dublin as "home" if you know what I mean.... Just saw you're from Portstewart think I've been through it once coming down from Strangford Lough or am I totally wrong with my geography?

A bit late joining this thread but noticed some things close to my heart ... fooood!

Red/brown lemonade can be bought in Safeway/Morrisons in Acton - or at least it used to be. Most supermarkets will cater for their local demographic profile so lots of Irish goods available there.

Hey Alannah im also from Dublin and living in Croydon! Moved here in May after gettin married. Im 24 weeks gone on my first preg. How abt u?
