I have many allergies of varying degrees and severity. Because of this, I often feel awkward and freakish when I go to different coffee shops/cafes'/restaurants and explain about them and people look at me in horror.

Today tho I went into the milkshake shop in bournemouth to see if they actually did soya milkshakes. I have not had a decent milkshake in a loooooooooooooooooooooooong time......and certainly not one from this shop (the last time was flames hen night I think. They do the most amazing oreo cookie shakes).

anyhooooooooooooo

Turns out that they DO do soya shakes, and they actually cater for all allergies/ceoliacs etc.

They even have seperate mixers for each type of allergy, seperate spoons......and change their gloves for preparing said shakes to prevent cross contamination.

I am thrilled

and stunned, which is quite sad, as I do feel that people need to start becoming more aware of allergies and yet I feel they don;t.

but, if you are allergic, and are this way......go! they are next to argos

That sounds great, but you are right, all too rare.
