a very english shopping list

What do you buy in your first trip to the supermarket on arriving in a new country? I'm sure the check out girls had a field day with us. Combined with such vital things as a laundry basket and a couple of rubbish bins were a number of cleaning products (and lets face it, I'm hardly known for my ability to clean the house, so why I thought this was quite so vital escapes me), fresh milk and special K, some towels (accidentally put all of ours in storage), some nice wine glasses and a couple of bottles of french reds and some Tupperware. Obviously we have bought large boxes of PG tips out with us, although are lacking in the marmite front.

We have to go back to the supermarket today to get something to eat.
