Crewton Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 2 hours ago, Eddie said: And which one do you think that the blue rinse brigade would favour? They're all pensioners. Probably the one that's trying to convince them she's Margaret Thatcher incarnate. I know what you're getting at though. I think if Sunak was a devout Muslim who wore the traditional clothing of his heritage, he wouldn't get a single vote, but as well educated son of Punjabi Hindus, I'm not sure they're as concerned. But then I don't actually know many Tories, let alone blue-rinse ones who I could ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I do have a bottle of this stuff in the cupboard to celebrate if/when we go top in time for Christmas ??? I am 80 on Christmas day and that's my name, So I would like to try it to see if its a drink I would like my grandchildren and great grandchildren to buy me for my birthday, I only drink whisky and wine nowadays but that's a bit expensive for the younger ones to buy me. Could you tell me what is it like and where I can get It. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
