Mercadona do a 5 litre box of amontillado - it's called Fino Montiole. I use it for cooking - it's fabulous with Spanish roast chicken. Never seen cream sherry in Spain.

I buy creams and pale creams in all the usual supermarkets...Hipercor, Carrefour, Mercadona.

I assumed they were all readily available in Spain but obviously not!

It's wine harvest time at the moment....I'm going to a sherry tasting tonight

badly designed website, too many pale colours in the fonts not sticking out from the background picture.

Where are you looking? I only found white pages with black fonts, and white fonts with black background, but got bored looking after half a dozen or so pages!

For anyone within striking distance of Jerez and an interest in sherry, last opportunity to go the sherry & tapa tasting tonight:

well followed your link, got a nice front page full of glasses, clicked on Amontillado glass and got a page with zoom in view of a glass over which is White spiel with pale Brown and Red paragraph titles
http://www.sherry.org/EN/fichaamontillado.cfm

didnt stay long enough to get bored, it wasnt possible to read the words

Hmm. Very curious! I get the same zoom in of a glass with the white text & pale brown titles...........but over a black (slightly transparent) background! It is easy to read. Why do we see different things when we look at the same page? What is happening here????

PD - The webpage is much sharper than my low res screen shot.

Maybe some glasses or new glasses are in order Dom.
I'm even wearing some old ones because I can't be bothered going in another room to get my currant glasses...the page looks fine and easy to read to me.

ur part the way to a tea cake

Darn it.....missed the E and hit the A.

nope, if u r touch typing (you wish) they are different fingers, but I have seen some very fast 2 finger typists

Can't do that anymore..all down to Arthritis.

shame

my arthritis is in the ankles and knees so scrap heap before you

Don't think so!
I need a total re-fit and I've already got two titanium bars holding me together.
Just to keep it on topic...I wonder if sherry would help.

I had a couple of port with lemonade last week, didnt feel the aches and pains for oh a couple of minutes but they came back

So had a couple more port and lemonade...........

Funny that.....it was our anniversary today and we went for a meal with friends, lots of red wine followed by Spanish Cava, not feeling a thing at the moment.... but I am rather sleepy, I actually fell asleep at my desk at one point.
