Curious to ear what you generally miss if you're living in different country to that in which you grew up, were educated, maybe started your career etc.
Personally:
Buying Sunday papers- I hate reading stuff on the screen.
Availability of certain products like decent sliced/slicable bread, and bagels. The nearest the latter are available, to my knowledge, is Florence. Che palle! Also English English breakfast-type sausages.
Cans of draught Guinness.
The dry, if not the rainy, climate. Modena is always humid, as they say. In summer hot and humid; winter cold and humid - damp and often foggy, basically. The drier UK heat, is somewhat preferable.
BBC radio availability, not having to rely on the net.
English sense of humour.
Driving on the wrong side.
English pubs. Not the Irish-themed trash found here and all over the globe.
Supermarkets on Sunday. Not that I usually go shopping on Sundays but occasionally I need something on Sunday.
