I remember you saying that, really strange this double spaceship thing, but making some levels a lot easier

Good morning, I'm looking forward to my fizz deliveries today, let's hope there's some decent ones in there.
Has anyone else ordered mystery cases? It's been a long time since I've had any I'd say well over a year and tbh they were a load of rubbish the last time, in three cases I had about 9 bottles of sherry in fact I thought they had all gone but I found another one the other day when I was looking for some washing up liquid.

Go cat I hope you get news of your appointment asap this week and then you can start making your plans

Have a nice day

That is what has made me hesitate about ordering. About a year back I ordered 2 cases but one was really poor quality, cheap Spanish wine they sold instore for about £2.99 at the time so I took it take to store. They had no idea what to do with it so they had to ring Twine but I got my rubbish box refunded.
Then about 6 months ago I ordered 2 boxes but instead of being mixed bottles there was just 4 varieties, three bottles of each. I rung Twine and booked a delivery chap and he came the same day. A few weeks later I noticed I'd not had a refund and so I rung them and they had no record of the courier returning the box at all, it had just vanished. The chap had to authorise a refund for me.
So twice bitten

Thank you. Is there another one as I have not seen that one anywhere.

Not that I can find Elaine, Marston's 61 Deep Pale Ale(500ml) used to be a trigger but I see it on A's website now.

I got mine from Greggs - £2 and it includes a free regular drink :cool:.

This is seen as medium size for Costa. The staff in my Costa said they don't sell refillable cups big enough for a large drink. Has anyone found a refillable large cup please?

Many thanks

Anon

Well yes, the Gwegg ones I got all fit a large Gwegg drink in. I used the same cup at costalot, asked for and paid for a large latte, and it was only about 2 3rds full!

Could do with finding out how many ml is in large drinks to compare them.

Wow, my kind of brekkie I am well jealous.

It was lush, especially the vanilla

The guy in Thorntons said he thought this was the last ice cream offer, and to look out for different freebies from them.

Good morning everyone.

that reminds me regarding Thorntons.

We were going to the little outlet one on Talke Pits which now has a fancy rebranding so I don't know what its called ... but sadly last time we found Thorntons had closed :mad:.

Looking at the location map yesterday there seems to be a new Thorntons in Hanley .... or perhaps its not new and we have just not noticed it before. Still a long way to go just for ice cream.

Anyway if you don't have a local one just keep checking incase a new one does open locally to you

I'd rather have crappy fizz than crappy wine as I like aperol and chambord but I never want to spoil good prosecco, we shall see.
