Maxwell House Coffee: 
Is there a shortage?
My local ASDA, TESCO and SAINSBURY did not have it on their shelves
today. Our local big TESCO hasn't had it for weeks. 
I only use supermarkets so I don't know about the little retailers.
I live in Scotland. What are supplies like in your neck of the wood?

Hello Quintin

Seeing as you have no address and are living in a field in Scotland, how
about planting your own Maxwell House coffee beans
I haven't seen Maxwell House in the markets here before. Perhaps specialty
shops import them.
So which field do you live in sQuintin-with-an-i.?? Is it in the east, north
or the west?

P:S: and try not to mistake rabbit droppings for MH beans, please.

Edith.

On Fri, 17 Jun 2005 12:13:06 +0200, whilst Carstairs had his head
thrust between the maids thighs a note arrived from our good  buddy
"The Traveller"  .
As Caruthers did not hear the bell, I answered it.

I am a troll and I live under a brigg in the west of Scotland along
with my partner who is a delightful little Water Kelpie. One of her
ancestors features in a Robert Burns poem!

The Maxwell House coffee I am talking about is an instant coffee. Full
of caffeine or however its spelt. But thankyou for your interest and
your humerous reply.

Griff.

PS I realy am a troll........honest.

You live under a brigg? That's cool. Here the trolls are enormous and live
under bridges not to be crossed.

You don't say. How about giving us a whiff of the poem-that is-as long as it
isn't 22 verses long, gawdhelpusall.

Dear Griff. Let's hope Carruthers misses this one too for such a nice troll,
you are. I've had cod for dinner today but a Scottish Kelpie wouldn't put me
off either. How big is it (between the eyes) would there be enough food for
two? (cats)

I really am sorry the damned hoss drowned you in spirit and that you must
live under your brigg forever with the Kelps

Dizzily-think I need Maxwell. Byebye my wee scallop.Troll away on the waves.

Edith.
