Last trip:

UK to Turkey: Cheese, Sausages, Bacon, Black Pudding, Cadburys Chocolate & (under strict orders) Baileys.

Return: Blanket (just happened to be the right colour for my bedroom!), honey, spices, olive oil soap, car steering wheel cover & some amazing memories of my 1st time in Calis, although not a newbie to Turkey!
