When I picked up the Christmas catalogue kast year I had to be practically dragged out by DH. There were quite a few stalls demonstrating food goodies with lots of samples and I tried every one 😋

Our closet one has a sherry tasting this afternoon.

I'm not surprised it's a closet one @Ohthedaffodils . If word got out on sherry tasting there would be a stampede!

JMAngel1 · 12/10/2024 13:27

Oooh is it good? My closest is Knutsford but never been - am I missing out? How does it compare to M&S or Waitrose?

Ohthedaffodils · 12/10/2024 13:41

@WineIsMyCarb haha - not been sampling the sherry, honest guv.

Oooh. Does it count as a trip out the house for the kids? Feeling very unmotivated today.

Gettingannoyednow · 12/10/2024 13:45

Yes, definitely. But you have to buy at least one thing for each kid.

Gettingannoyednow · 12/10/2024 13:47

My nearest Booths is 2 hours drive from my house but I like knowing it's there.

user1488042156 · 12/10/2024 13:47

@MrsSkylerWhite there's one in Lytham and one in St Annes so I'd assume not.

St Annes Booths has a Christmas event on today until 3

PickAChew · 12/10/2024 13:50

Sadly not all of the North. Our nearest is an hour away in Ripon.

Cheshire71 · 12/10/2024 14:09

Picked ours up earlier 🙂🎄

Frightenedbunny · 12/10/2024 14:18

Woo hoo, even better is that my DS has started his part time job in booths today. Anxiously awaiting my staff discount card!

Better than both of them put together and then some
