I know what you mean Terry.. I love the big supermarkets... even the household goods seem fun...I love the tiny saucepans for coffee and the plastic froth makers, plastic table cloths...it just looks more fun and quirky than the UK. Then there's the food... It always amazes me that you can buy all the brands and I love the greek labels, buying it and getting home and dont know how to use it because you cant understand the directions!
