I like a good cheddar, but I have fallen in love with Stilton.
Maybe because I am 1/2 Britt and 1/2 Scott. But am stuck in America. Thank God.

Yeah Tillimook and Bandon make great cheeses – there was a type called “longhorn” that was available rarely around here, I think its midwest America mostly but I can’t find it any longer. For my mom, cheese rips me up inside like battery acid, sadly.

And yeah. A&W frosty cold in a glass mug. That’s what food tastes like in heaven.

Yep. Looks like A&W is still with us, too. Mais naturlich, stoatie-chan. A&W root beer is a food group, ranking just above pepperoni pizza and just below grilled cheese with bacon 'n' tomato sammidges.

Well, Food TV ust did their White House Garden Iron Chef battle. And I must say, Jane Seymour and Nigella Lawson as two of the judges was probably the best part of the show.

Jane was looking ravishing in spite of her age, and Nigella was absolutely bodacious….

Don’t know who the third judge babe was (American chick), but I would love to get her in front of my camera as well..

>> A very beeg grocery chain indeed

Atsa what I thoughted. I remember Tesco too. Way back in the mists of antiquity, my company thought it’d be a pretty good idea to try to break into the grocery wholesale binness there and bought up a distributor in Uppingham.

Not really such a good idear.

dfb, the A&W franchises are licensed by YUM Brands, the largest Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, KFC and LJS franchise outfit there be.

Co-branding abounds. Perhaps you’ve heard this spiffy tune?

An A and W co-branded with a Long John Silver Seafood Shoppe would befuddle any true Englishman. But it seems to work in Harper’s Ferry WV. Fish and chips with a creamy root beer is a good meal.

Canterbury is a long trek for us, but I’ll shoot you an email and see where and when you’re going to be around. I assume the email associated with your name is for real?

Oh we’ve been to London tons, we’re taking our oldest on this vacation and he’s yet to see the changing of the guard. We might actually change our plans, spend more time in Scotland and then head straight to Paris. If they’re gonna make me take that damn chunnel I would rather just get it the hell over with. And I’m not particularly interested in dropping any pounds in London at the moment with regards to their politics and Iran and muzims n’stuff.

We’re catching a cruise after Paris and I think we’ll be somewhat in your neck of the woods for a day or so afterwards. We’re heading up to Canterbury after we get off our ship. Any chance for a cuppa?

Yep. Looks like A&W is still with us, too.

Or a Pecan Log Roll I wonder if A&W still exists?
