Welcome home Cresta (and your laden ute!)
I am pleased to say that if I achieve nothing else this year, at least I know I have made a Pommie Expat very happy. I think Cresta has just bought the part of the bottle supermarket in Lutwyche that was left after I'd finished with it! So I'd just like to say, Sean, enjoy that beer.......its worth every cent....

Unfortunately, the bottle cost over £3000, cos he skidded on the ice and wrote off the car!!! The only thing i said when he walked in and told me what had happened was 'so wheres the baileys?'
Priorities in the right order there, I'm glad to see!

Theres a huge place opened up next to the Good Guys on Lutwyche Road, called Liquor Superstore (see my earlier thread about Hobgoblin!) - The Bloke found it, amongst other stuff they sell Hobgoblin, Old Speckled Hen, Abbot Ale, London Pride - think they had about 30 imported from the UK, also a few french & Belgian ones like Leffe. Absolute Heaven!!! Cresta (Sean ) had been seriously pining for decent beer so I made sure he knew about it, and he sent me a text today after buying half the shop!!
Go across and have a look - brilliant place, though it might be a lottle low on stocks now!!
