No Prosecco For Christmas

[gulliver1]

The Chief Exec of Accolade wines.. warns of Wine and Prosecco shortages in the run up to Christmas..
and guess what ?............He is blaming Brexit.......what a surprise.

[Bobbisox1]

Oh Noooo, what about Grey Goose ? :0(((

[bobbinwales]

He knows how to panic people to buy earlier than they would. Me I'll just avoid Accolade and buy from our store, we have plenty

[gulliver1]

Also McDonalds have run out of milk shakes .
KFC and Nandos have run out of chicken.
Wetherspoons are running out of beer........Lets hope it doesn't last.

[gulliver1]

Just feel sorry for all those Turkeys that voted for Christmas.
It's only nine weeks away.

DON'T FEED THE TROLL !!!!!

[Bobbisox1]

I’ve got my Turkey , he languishes frozen in my freezer , I will cope

[gulliver1]

B/S 13.45, Sod the turkey , get the Grey goose in stock Now!

[Bobbisox1]

I’ve plenty in stock thanks, I’ve got friends who bring me it from hols :0)

[gulliver1]

I see your friends are only allowed to bring one litre of grey goose into the country now since Brexit,
best slow down a little or start drinking "Newkie Brown".

He blamed lack of HGV staff but did not relate that to Brexit himself, though several articles did

[gulliver1]

Has Brexit put a stop to the "Booze Cruise" or bringing van loads of duty free booze into the UK. ?

[Bobbisox1]

If I have 6 friends away on holiday , that’s 6 litres of the old GG, happy days indeed :0))

[diddlydo]

Yes it's the end of the booze cruise for this Francophile and oenophile. Boo hoo.

[AuntPG]

No prosecco for the peasants? Then let them drink bolly! :-)

[gulliver1]

14.24 Thank you .......Don't think I will be going to the UK christmas then.

[diddlydo]

I loathe prosecco so couldn't care less whether it's there or not. In fact we're wondering what to do with 3 bottles of the stuff that we were given as "presents" - stick it out on the pavement and say "help yourself"?

Boris will probably cancel it again anyway, but we'll see.
