Any Yanks going to London?

[Mo Brighta]

Hello, we have a weakness for a product available from a certain firm in Picadilly Circus, no. 181 I believe. We have tried ordering on line, but the firm has us in a state, and wants a king's ransom for shipping.

Some years back, I went on the forums, and a Yankee in London at the time volunteered. He was kind enough to make a purchase for us, pack it away in his luggage, bring it home and ship it across the US of A at a fair rate. All legal, of course, no contraband - we just want some tea!

Is there a possibility of this nexus of good fortune once again? Is there a business man or woman with a few pounds of headroom in their luggage who will be in London and doesn't mind making a short visit to Fortnum and Mason on our behalf? I can offer a gift more to your liking, if you are a bimmer nut like me!

Thank you for your kind attention! Email or pm if you might be willing.

sounds like spam. smells like spam, but somehow with 200 posts, it might not be spam?

OK, if not resolved by then, I'll be glad for your help - thanks!
What with winter approaching in the Northern Hemisphere, we'll be looking for an earlier resolution ... We can take it off line, pm is good, email is fine.

So, you want tea? Like tea in a mug?

This is my favorite tea. Its sweet, so if you don't like sweet tea, it isn't for you. When we lived in Norcal and I was going to SF once a week, I would shop at this store for my tea. I still do even living back on the east coast. Great place.

Plain old tea, I know, boring...

Yeah, we brew our own. Nothing sexy or illegal about it.

Thanks for the SF ref, may be out there soon (wife is from 'The City').
Always looking for a nice hot cup. I mean, folks get so weird when I drink Bourbon first thing in the day, knowutamean?

:D
