Re: Can i take squash?
 

Thanks for the link, according to it's store locator, there is a store in Sylvan Lake that sells the stuff, I'll check it out when I finish the bottle of squash I bought from the Brit store in Cochrane for more than $5.

After a recent trip back to the UK, where I had squash for the 1st time in 5 years I realised how crap the powdered stuff actually is and have since decided it will be worth it for me to buy proper squash in future, I like really weak so it'll last forever.

Jeez, this is one of the things that steems my p*ss on this forum.
A simple question- can I bring squash from the UK in to Canada?

Then a plethora of responses suggesting you can buy it here, drink fresh juice instead, order it from this website bla bla bla.

Re: Can i take squash?
 

So that really contributed to the thread. Unless of course you were advocating an different method of transporting liquids.:)

Re: Can i take squash?
 

And a plethora of responses that say "yes you can" .

Alternative suppliers may be useful once the bought over stocks expire!

:p

Re: Can i take squash?
 

thank you for noticing that...all i was looking for was a simple yes or no hahahaha...

its interesting how popular this thread seems to have got.

so my conclusion is, very you can take squash.

Re: Can i take squash?
 

A conversation with you must be a bundle of laughs - don't vaguely deviate, or offer any alternative thoughts and I guess you'd be happy.

Your sole contribution has been to bitch about the advice, and not offer anything yourself. Is this the wrong time of the month for you? ;)

I got my wife to pick some up as she was in town (She looked at me like I was mad... more so that usual) It was alright, the lemon is good too:thumbup:

Cheers Rich!

Re: Can i take squash?
 

No problem, glad you like it.

Re: Can i take squash?
 

Yes you can - we packed 6 bottles in with our stuff we had shipped over, and brought 3 or 4 bottles in our cases as well.

For all the people asking why?? Simple - there isn't an equivalent out here. The frozen or powdered stuff has a very bitter aftertaste (imo) and isn't anywhere near as nice. I don't like hot drinks, don't drink milk and not too keen on fruit juice either. Water gets boring quickly. I've lived here for almost 2 years and I still buy Robinsons squash from the UK, about 20 bottles every 4 months. The local garage sell it, but only in 2 flavours and they charge $9 per bottle :eek:

Re: Can i take squash?
 

Ah cool, thats good to know, im off out then to buy a load of squash. I did try the crystal crap they have out there, but its just horrible...just like british chocolate is way better too.

Cant wait to move out there in a couple weeks and thank you all for your comments.

Re: Can i take squash?
 

When I first read your post, I thought 'squash really?!' then sadly realised I feel exactly the same way as real Twinings Earl Grey teabags...
:)

Mentally calculating the cost of a container load of Tescos Pink Grapefruit here,... it's what flows through my veins!!!! :eek: :rofl:
