Seems to me I've seen Mushy Peas in the British Shop in Market Mall.
By the way did you ever get a chance to try Mudders Fish 'n Chips over by the airport?

I never developed a taste for beer. I left Liverpool at 16, to young to drink decent beer and the legal drinking age here in Alberta in 1963 was 21. So I developed a taste for something much worse Coca Cola, preferably with lime juice in it.
I only drink red wine now because they tell me its good for my heart.
We have a friend who is more than happy to make a batch up for us when we ask, all we have to do is provide the bottles, the money for the kit and pick it up when its ready.
