Football and Fosters

I must come clean and admit I did not send you a postcard from our recent 3112-mile round trip to Venice (but don't feel miffed; we only sent them to close family this year). This was really fantastic; a drive through - or rather over - the Alps comes highly recommended; it is "ahhhssohm", as our American friends would say.

Anyway, although we came back with over 100 bottles of wine and about 6 litres of spirits (that's us sorted for another year), I did not get any beer!

What a dreadful omission, I hear you say... Well, I have just been checking beer prices in Morrisons this lunchtime, and 24x440ml cans of Fosters for £12 was the best I could find; which is just a little over £1.10/litre (about the same as you'd pay in Calais I think.

So, while it lasts; enjoy the football and the Fosters (I will),

Martin.
