(I don't actually like the stuff and don't normally drink it I but do have the occasional hot toddy if I've got a really nasty cold... and other people around here would probably like to know.) Thanks. In early September I mentioned that I'd just opened an entirely vegan shop and someone asked where it is; sorry about the slow response and not remembering who asked, but it has been keeping me busy. It's in Shipley, West Yorkshire (UK). Obviously that won't be of much use to many list-members but please contact me if you'd like to know more. I don't want to turn this group into a commercial for the shop! Best wishes, Anna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
