Title: odd request
Post by: unlucky mark mv6 on 25 April 2010, 21:02:52
A bit of an odd request i know,but the old lady asked me earlier on if i knew any shops local to us that sells the burtons potato puffs in a blue packet,well at least they was last time i knew,which would probably be about 15 years back.She reckons she found out on the internet that they only sell em in scotland now,so for any scottish folk on here,let me know if theres any local to you. :y

Bit of a disappointing 'odd request'. I was hoping for something of a sexual nature. Oh well.
