Re: SNP Nicola
Here in Oz due to a large number of floods there is a severe shortage of spuds.
No frozen chips anywhere and told it will take up to 3 months for supplies to resume.
McCain tried to import some but failed and we were told there is a world wide shortage of spuds.
Clubs and restaurants get some on a ration basis.


Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.
