    I have friends who live right in the heart of pineau country - forget going to the shops to get it, they go straight to the growers.

    Leo, when I go visiting that's what we have when the sun's over the yardarm then a nice red with dinner.

    OFH, how far away from there are you?

    jsybaz, there are a number of places that produce it, but this one is a couple of hours to the west of us.

    You have to be over 18 to look at this. ;)

    Did all that eating and drinking last night. Went through the tunnel to Lyttelton to the pub, where we had fish and chips. The pub was a bit crowded. There used to be about 10 pubs and bars in Lyttelton, and a number of restaurants. Now they have all fallen down except for the one we visited.

    Ak if you read this before you go home. Hooky can be bought in Sainsbury's and Morrison's supermarkets, certainly around Warwickshire and Oxfordshire anyway.

    And there is Hooky Gold too. <ale>

    Hooky Gold has a green label for reasons best known to the brewers.

    My favourite is Old Hooky.

    It's the Workingmen's Club in Canterbury St. Some of the others may open sometime in the future but most are stuffed

    Just thought you might like to create a few songs for the above players.

    All of them are playing tonight in the Chateauroux v Nantes game, which with 57 mins gone is still 0-0.

    Updates will appear later if I don't go to bed first.
