Mule Here. Need Your Grocery Lists!

sunnygrl · 05-14-2006

It won't be long until we're winging our way to paradise. We arrive Sat. June 3 and leave June 17.
I've started a mule list of things to bring....marmite for sure!(synestere) I have Jaffa Cakes, Hobnobs,(Mindbender) Coleman's horseradish,(PlayadelSoul) tetley tea for starters. Anything else in particular you Brits want? PG Tips? Coleman's mustard? I don't think I can bring bangers.

But biscuits I got!

Flake? Dairy Milk? Ribena? Sticky Toffee Pudding? Oh, never mind that, it's refrigerated, too.

Is the library still wanting magazines and books? I can bring a few of those. Any kind in particular?
Baby clothes? I have some my grandson has outgrown.
Since I'm staying at the El Dorado Royale, transportation into PDC might be a little iffy. I know I'm planning on coming for the peep-meet at the Tequila Barrel on Monday the 12th. Should I bring all this stuff to the playa.info office? (I don't know where that is) So somebody better let me know what to do with this stuff. Even if somebody wants to drive to the resort, I'd be glad to meet them!
You can either respond here or send me a PM.
Cheers!

As many as you can carry ............. I thought you would have had a lot more peeps asking for stuff .

Marvellous!! You're very kind.

Mmm, Hob Nobs are always a delight to devour. Hey, what about Roses' Turkish Delight? Not Fry's foul magenta slab encased in chocolate, but the choice squidgy pastel pink and vanilla cubes dusted with icing sugar.

Bangers! Oh, don't taunt me.

Walmart now has chocolate digestives, a reasonable german doppleganger for Jaffa cakes and even Cadburys chocolate (made in Canada but it's the same as the original creamy version not like that gritty Hersheys sludge).

I can pick up and recompense you at a peep meet.

you obviously don't have any vitals worth bringing down

Anyway, the restaurant with your finest food, McDonalds, is already here

... and you have Walmart. If only we had a Marks & Spencer!

Did you know that you can now get Lemon and Lime jaffa cakes, and Blackcurrant as well! Oh, and they've advertised marmite in a squeezy tube here in the UK but I haven't seen it in the supermarkets yet. I'll bring you some Turkish delight if you want the half-decent stuff? Or anything else from the UK?

I posted a mule request sticky on this forum

Susie Q I will be glad to bring anything I can for you! I was singling out the Brits simply cuz I work in an authentic British tea room that also has British groceries. But since it was mentioned you already have Micky D's and Wal-Mart, what could I possibly bring???

Besides, you have your very own personal mule, correct?

(Not that I'm calling him a you-know-what. I'd never say that about babaloo!)

I will be at the Peep meet at the tequila barrel on June 12. And we just got a shipment in of Turkish Delight. Will see if it's Roses'. Not sure. If it is, I'll bring some. Synestere said he might come to the resort and pick up the stuff. Not sure yet how I'm getting to the peep meet.

**Mindbender** · 05-17-2006

Just send me a pm when you get here and I can send you my details etc

Muchas gracias.

Hey do you have scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam in the tea room too?

Hi, Lilbet I'll be pm'ing you too soon of course!
