Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Ah yes! I've not been to Belgium, but did sense a slight annoyance from someone at a hotel in France when we couldn't speak French well enough! Jo it was a number of years ago..back in like 95..so, dunno if it was there..we were well fed by my friends there anyways...it was in belgium we had problems...trying to convince folks that, no, we didn't want cheese!! and, we didn't speak flemish nor french...twas an adventure! ---Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).Version: 6.0.510 / Virus Database: 307 - Release 14/08/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 I suppose it's lack of time with me - I do the health shop shopping in a lunchtime - the company runs a bus into town at lunchtime. Then we do the rest of the shopping from Tesco after work on a Friday. We cannot get any shopping locally, so it makes it a little difficult. Jo i actually like spreadin my purchases out a bit..here..i shop at whole foods for stoopid vegan treats and the like, and for bread...and non food items like toothpaste, soap, and the like...berkelet bowl is for organic fruits and veggiesthen there is the farmers markets...while whole foods might not be the best choice, they do have a huge selection of vegan foods and a good selection of veggies of the organic persuasion,..anything has to be better then safeway! ---Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).Version: 6.0.510 / Virus Database: 307 - Release 14/08/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 The veggie boxes are a good idea. I do have some vegetables delivered, and they are always good quality. Joi have fruit and veg delivered...different surprises each week according to whats available........go to organic shop for vegan treats........another shop for cheap chopped tomatoes etc..........its more fun going to more than one!! ---Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).Version: 6.0.510 / Virus Database: 307 - Release 14/08/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 Hi Jo The same here. But for some reason when I was there, not everything we needed was available at one shop. Er maybe I was being picky, can't really remember. I had fun and nothing but time to myself. So I made it interesting. Wish I had that time again! lol nikki In order to act wisely, it is not enough to be wise.
