HELP! Where can I get my oats ?
HELP! Where can I get my oats ?
Don´t get too excited,....... I´m just looking for advice on where I can buy supplies of my favourite breakfast cereal..Scotts or Jordans porridge oats, so please don´t send me details of where to obtain a young Russian bride, and please, no unsolicited e-mails with offers of cheap V****a........I live inland near Granada, but am quite willing to forage for my porridge, anywhere in Andalucia...I normally bring back at least 12 cartons from Uk, but due to a logistical error on my last trip, I came back empty- handed...I have bought , in the past, Gachas de avena, from a local Spanish shop, but was most dis-gruntled , when I found it full of weevils!..( no silly ! not weasels, weevils..little creepy crawlies ! )......My Wife lovingly prepares my daily porridge, adding sultanas, chopped prunes, diced apple etc....Today I had an egg on toast...what a let down !...So please help me to track down my oats...Go on ..make an old man happy! !

Hi Benidorm, we are coming over to Granada for 2 weeks in early February, and be bringing a packet of Quaker Oats for my hubby. if you are really desperate and haven't found any porridge by then we could always bring you a packet or two over.
We could arrange a meeting in Granada by the cathedral at a pre-arranged time, The only stipulation is, that if I bring Scott's Oats over, you will have to attend said meeting wearing a kilt, any tartan will do.
Any problem with that?

WELL....I now have visions of me standing outside the cathedral in Granada, wearing a kilt, showing off my lilly-white legs and ´sparrows kneecaps`, not a pretty site. I can assure you!...And I would of course have to perform a ritual ´I need my oats dance`, surrounded by my large collection of Tribal Art......trouble is, with my luck , there would be a baby boom in Granada in nine months time and I would be blamed and then pursued by the child support agency......You know what.....I think I will change my breakfast cereal to cornflakes, much safer and I can get them down the road !....
Keep Smiling, Keep Laughing....but remember if you laugh too much the ´men in white coats`will come and take you away......
