Carol, from California, left a comment the other day and mentioned that she has a friend in Abingdon. Carol wondered if I lived anywhere near Abingdon. The answer was no but that I’ve been to Abingdon a gazillion times for work. I happened to mention in my reply comment to her that I like to eat at a place called Alison’s when I’m in Abingdon. As, it turns out Carol likes to eat there too and the main draw is the potato soup. Which is the same reason I really like eating there–actually, from what I gather Alison’s is practically world famous because of the potato soup.
I thought I’d share the exchange Carol and I’ve had since I’m not sure if anyone else looks at comments. I think it’s pretty cool that Carol happened on the F&G and then, as it turns, out we both like the same restaurant in a small town in Southwest Virginia.
Hello! I am desperate to buy Stronbow Cider and while searching online, I came across one of your posts talking about a friend’s local pub that stocks Stronbow. I live in Virginia too, and would love to know if there are any places where I can buy Strongbow! I would be incredibly grateful if you could email me (brendangillespieAThotmailDOTcom) and let me know. Thanks!

Oops I spelled it wrong, I meant Strongbow Dry Cider.
Brendan, I sent you an email but in case you cruise by here again…http://www.internetwines.com/index.html looks like they will ship to VA. Good luck.
