Saturday, December 22, 2007  I Love The Interweb  Must be 85% of
the shopping done online this year - maybe more by value. Only
clothes for the elder children need a traipse.  We'll jump in
the car this arvo and tootle up the A38 for a bits-and-bobs-
shopping trip to beautiful Tewkesbury, home of the Gray Monk,
where not everyone is having such a lovely Christmas. A fair few
people are still living in caravans after the summer floods. But
it's a lovely town, and has a good bookshop.  Inshallah I'll
have time to give this guy a bell and collect some bottles from
him. His perry is absolutely gorgeous - as it should be for £4 a
bottle. But at 6 or 7 percent alcohol you drink the stuff more
like wine - a bottle with dinner. If you're ever in that neck of
the woods it's well worth giving him a call (he's not paying me
for this, btw). He or his webmaster need to update the website
though - I wonder if he would fancy an html-for-perry exchange ?
