I genuinely think I'd go insane if I wasn't able to buy Brie or Blue cheese. I don't need it every day of course, but any less than once every two months would be unspeakable

I have a bit of a compulsion to scan the grocery store for marked down fancy cheeses and bakery stuff. I've tried some pretty awesome stuff I never would have gotten otherwise.

Private Space. My own private Bedroom Especially. Also, a good bathroom. Especially a good toilet and shower. Make them clean too.

If there is a luxury whose absence would break you, then I would suggest you do a little "fast" from it, occasionally.

100%. For caffeine, I drop it on the weekends (much to the annoyance of my gf) and that monday morning coffee makes all the difference in the world. For cheese, I'm usually okay without for a few weeks.

Chocolate.

Proper chocolate, not the shit that Cadbury turn out since it was bought by the cheese people.

No wonder they lost their royal warrant. That's the first thing that Charlie has done since the Prince's Trust that has really impressed me.

That's super interesting, I actually like him a bit now because of that
