Thanks Jem, now it is only the allspice we have to find in Deutschland.
It's other name (at least here in Dublin) is pimiento. Mind you, that is also the name of a chilli pepper, so make sure you are buying the correct thing.
Alternatively I can send you some - it is cheap enough here and if sent whole will keep indefinitely.
As to herb and spice blends, I have a book at home that gives a wealth of different recipes - I will check for mixed spice and also give you the name and author of the book - may prove a good investment for you if you are having difficulty finding particular mixes.
