If you live away what goodies do you get family to send you or purchase your self if you go home to visit.

Visit a couple of times a year and always take back:

5 packs of Stottie for the freezer although not in there long.
4 tubs of peace pudding.
3 White pudding as cannot get where I live.

Also have extra stotties to order and deliver for neighbours who are always asking when I am next going to see my sister up North in Sunderland:lol:

I have to say I only really like Pease pudding freshly made served warm-- cooked with a gammon/ham joint and served with Jersey tatties is a simple meal to die for:cool:
Worked away a bit but only weeks at a time so I often got requests from those where I was working to bring stotties and black pudding back. Mind also have requests to bring Cumberland Sausage back home when we are over caravan.
My brother has been down Suffolk for 35 years plus but rarely takes owt back when he is up.
May have missed it , soz, but where are you based now?

She likes pork dips anarl even though it was from Ibbitsons. Since found out via threads on here there is better, suddick way and that. Next time we come down I'll start a thread as to where to gan.
 
When I lived away, I'd take a few packs of bacon and sausages from the butchers.

On the flip-side, I'd also bring back bbq pack of beef or pork, chilli paste and soya bean paste.
