Di had been lead to believe that there was a Sunday market about 6K along the Te Puke (Pook-ee, not barf) road but we failed to find any trace of it after 12. We turned round and headed back to the Mount to check out the New World supermarket, as we had been informed that it had a "British Foods" section. Well, it did, but it was barely a shelf or two but it did at least sell Shreddies and Shredded Wheat, which are conspicuous by their absence from New Zealand shelves. They're a bit pricey at over $10 a box (that's over four quid in real money) but tomorrow's breakfast will involve Shreddies. Most of the Brit foods do seem to be expensive - for instance a tin of Heinz baked beans is a quid. We will I think be sticking with Watties, although they don't taste the same and are more spicy, although the labels look very similar so I'm guessing a commercial tie up is involved somewhere.
Not much else to say about today, except that the weather was really good, again. I'm off into Tauranga tomorrow to visit a recruitment agency.
