Just don't understand how/why this is produced. Surely nobody at all can like this. Savlon and TCP blend...ugh.

Am walking into town. Should I take my two Waitrose hessian 6 bottle bags to bring back the Home Bargain spoils.

I think not!

If there is a fabulous buy, I can always get a cab home.

Taking bags is a sure way to ensure it's all Blossom Hill.

No point in giving yourself a predisposed downer.

On this occasion, you may not need Sherpa's to help you up to the summit :wink:

Two bags is always best even if you have 3 bottles in each. Keeps you nicely balanced. They might even have some of this...

Not a thing.

There was some Fetzer Sauvignon Blanc of a deep dark golden colour.

Beautiful day, though, in Stroud. Got some Berkswell Ewe, Bleu d'Auvergne and a stinking little soft thing (don't start). Plus some large green olives in lemon, garlic and coriander.

Yu-u-um

Oh, look, it's lunch time.

Right, A workshop on sheep's cheese, Cheese makers sitting around a refrectory table - all munching. You might have been in this room before, can't see you in the pic in NY (no, not new york)

Anyway -
