No, it is well stocked. If it wasn't then they'd have run out, which they may have now but like I care.

You didn't bring the bar home in a doggy bag then?

A doggy bottle if you like.
I have to do the post-Christmas tidying today and a glass or seven of fortification would be of great use. My best guess is that there are four loads for the washing. Then some poor bugger needs to run a hoover over the house and the car is filthy inside and out. Plus, there is little or no food left so I'll to do some shopping too.
Theoretically, the girls could help me.

We have a phrase for that: "Oink, Oink. Flap, flap. Floss, floss"
Which translates as: "A herd of pigs have just overflown the house, while carrying out a dental care regimen."

In days of yore, we'd say "They're building a runway at Mimbridge"; Mimbridge being home to a very large pig farm.

I like hotel recommendations. Problem is I remember I had some friends at University who were from Durham and I couldn't understand a word any of them said. Perhaps a slight exaggeration but a lot of what was said was lost.
Turns out you don't need to be able to verbally communicate to enjoy a beer together.

Agreed - I once visited my brother in Plymouth (we are from Liverpool, but he has spent 30+ years there since joining the Navy in the 70's) and we went out for a few beers to one of the pubs near the docks. I stood with his mates for several hours, nodding sagely at their utterances, understanding bugger all, but still had a great night.

As previously commented: it was...before you got there.
Glad to hear you had a good time. Complements to you and the familie.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Expect another one when he notices he didn't get MVP this year...
Congrats on yours by the way - a lot more deserved than mine!

By the way, congratulations and thank you.

It is going to happen, possibly. I'm planning a holiday to the 'Sheep Land' this summer.

I already have a room - I'm sitting in it now - and I'm sure that Carlos does not live under canvas either.
What are you implying about the world outside Surrey?

BTW, I noted a reference by yourself to time in Guildford. I too have done that shopping trip, up and down the bloody cobbles only to end up in the first shop.

Indeed - High Street, North Street, all the little cross connections.
Fortuitously, there is the Star at one end, and the Pigeons at the other...
