Ah, posh pop, my favourite. That stuff's another of the reasons that I travel up to Booths in Chorley. The nearest Booths to you will probably be the one in Wilmslow if you're ever over that way, or at Media City if you have to go into Mancunia. San Pellegrino is the only bottled water I buy, too.
Wilmslow's feckin miles away... I'm hoping somewhere nearer sells it than that :(

Yiss, I know. I was just thinking it could be en route to you coming up here or summat. Do Ocado deliver to the back of beyond? They sell it. Alternatively you can do what I often do and mix SP with fresh orange juice. C'est une boisson magique. :oyea:

main was angus beef with mushrooms, salad, new potatoes onions, all in a lovely meaty gravy.

yum.

The pop definitely. Not sure about the water. Lemon or Orange. Little Miss GtE had some over Easter.

Sell it in supermarkets. Sure tesco have it.

Just looked it up, ocado have it on their online store. Sure others have it.

It is absolutely fantastic on a hot summers day.

I'll check but I don't think I get Lemonade out of my tap.
Oh, and it's not just water... you've obviously never tried it, it has a distinctive flavour and is naturally carbonated. Do you put tap water in your G&T?

And cheers everybody, I've checked and I can get it in a couple of places around me, now I've put some effort in.

Liver and bacon with onions, a much underrated dish which is easy to make. Found a bottle of S African red someone gave me, a blend of Shiraz/Mourvedre/Viognier. It's very nice decided to sit up and watch a Doors gig until I finish it.

not by me... I am salivating at the thought... plenty of pepper, i hope... Did you do mash? I'd be jersey royals, broad beans and crusty baguette... and that wine sounds like it has the balls to stand up to it...

The wine is great. I just ate it with carrots. I'd been grazing for a while on all sorts of body par... I mean snacks.

I've always wanted to like liver, the chicken livers at the pub i worked at always smelled amazing, but bleurgh! That 'offal' aftertaste!

Went to the James Martin restaurant in Manchester a couple of weeks ago. The food was great but very pricey. I had "Seared West Coast Hand Dived Scallops" for starter at £10.50. Although they were nice it only came with two scallops.

Then a 10oz Rib Eye steak which came with five chips and three onion rings. At £26 it was still a bit expensive but the best steak I've ever had.

With drinks the bill came to £115 per couple. Good food but I wish I'd eaten before I went out.

Would I go again? Probably but it would have to be a very special occasion.

I'm not sure it makes them more tasty but it must make them more expensive.
