How strict are MAFF about bringing foodstuff into the country? I understand the rules re: fresh food, but just wondered if I can pack a few essentials (declared of course) in with the shipping container?
And by essentials I mean a decent brew - of the Yorkshire variety -, my mum's amazing jams/chutneys and my hoard of spices, mostly.
Of course I COULD find alternatives when we get there, but you really haven't tasted my mum's whiskey marmalade...;-)
