vivdunstanMartin's just taken a delivery at work of a crate of 12 bottles of Sheppy's low alcoholic cider for me. It's been sold out recently in our local supermarket, and it's my usual Saturday night tipple now (had to switch to low alcohol), so we decided to order in bulk. I am now highly amused at how his surname at delivery has been recorded: "It was received by manston." 😜
We were originally going to order direct from Sheppy's in Somerset, but they don't routinely deliver outside England and Wales, and you need to get a special quote for elsewhere in the UK. Sheesh! So ordered instead from Beers of Europe in King's Lynn, who let me order easily, and no hefty delivery surcharges for us in northern but still lowland Scotland. The package arrived the day after dispatch. Good courier too.
