I got 6 cans of it from Asda last week Steve, they do a nice range of 'pop from yesteryear' They also have Ginger Beer and Lemonade.
Very nice too!

I mean the old style lemonade where you can actually taste the lemon! They also have Cream Soda as well as Lager Shandy, y'know, the pop that LOOKED like the real thing and you could boast to yer mates you were boozing at 9 years old.
I believe Marcus started on this in 1927 before reaching the dizzy heights of Johnnie Walker nowadays.

yes as Ace says pop along to your local Asda steve, the dandelion burdock is a particular fave of mine, as is the lager shandy, also available in 2 litres bottles, beats Lizards Tea anytime.
