Of course it's swings and roundabouts, as well. Iceland's flavoured water (SWMBO drinks lots of it) is much cheaper, and they deliver it for free. And in our nearest supermarket, Farmfoods, for example we can buy a 7.5kg sack of perfectly wonky spuds cheaper than they were in Spain. When, by the way, did Britain become so OCD about the shape of its veg? If, as I've read over the years, it's silly rules coming out of Brussels, then Spain clearly ignores such rules (correctly, in my opinion) and Britain stupidly obeys, and Brexit could be the best thing that happens to food in the UK. I suspect it's nothing at all to do with the EU though, but I can't for the life of me understand why people are willing to pay more just for nice & uniformly shaped veg. Weird! And yes, the average cost of a cup of coffee is beyond my comprehension. In Germany, it's typically €1,20 - €1,50 - more or less the same as in Spain. So why are Brits so happy to pay so much? It really puzzles me. I can only assume it's because they're making lots of money selling overpriced cologne, fruit, veg or meat, so are happy to be fleeced by someone else who's selling overpriced coffee.
Gordon, let me know when you start selling Spanish cologne over here again!
