Hippy You Can Get Your Milo Fix Here!

Just cause every topic with anyone mentioning going abroad also mentions hippy wanting milo etc etc I thought I would point out that you can get it in london.

For all of you missing things from home (home being Aus or SA) this shop which is here might be able to help, i know they sell milo and a load of other things that you normally can't get in the UK. Hope this your addiction hippy

or the lazy git can go to the aus lolly shop in maiden lane just off the strand!

It's getting too close to the river.. some of those southern trolls might try and drag me across.. The Aus Shop is stupidly expensive too (and I'm the laziest person ever).

Or the 7(ish) SA stores in the putney, sheen, wimbledon area.

HIppy can I get those shorts off you sometime? Sorry I left it for a weekend then you disappeared! I will buy you Milo and stuff if you are too busy riding round Richmond park lazy.

I forgot about those. I hate RP unless someone else rides too. It's all about the Chilterns :)
I'm getting fscked up with my (other) mates on Thursday so won't be at Westie drinks (again).
You going to the Good Friday meet or the Birfday?

and the one in london bridge

If it's not walking distance to my home or office or on the roads I use in between then I will spend too long getting lost for it to make an attempt :)

hippy, you can drop pravs ~~used ~~ shorts into me on the way in to work???

Don't posertap hubs come with built-in GPS? :-P
@murtle - thanks for the offer mate. lets see what is easiest for the hippy.

There is a S.A / Aus shop right outside Acton town UG station.

They are not used shorts.. they £30ish from the sale and I never wore them.. hmm.. we didn't yet talk about remuneration.. rubs hands

I offer you 48 tim-tams and 1kg of Milo.

i buy milo at morrison's. and vegemite. didn't know it was that difficult...
now, does anyone know where i can get Coopers Pale?

It's not Australian Milo from Morrisons. There is a difference. The Vegemite is fine though, but you can get bigger jars at Waitrose.
Waitrose do Coopers red longnecks. I've only seen stubbies of Coopers Pale at bars and the (now closed) Beer Shop near Old St.

badtmy i buy milo at morrison's. and vegemite. didn't know it was that difficult...

There is an offie in Fulham (North End Road) that sells the Coop.
I'll get the name of it tonight.

anywhere closer to norf london would be good, too ;) i'm moving to arsenal next week.

i think you can buy coopers (and little creatures) from borough market, too.

hippy how is the morrison's milo different? i'm more of an ovaltine man at home, so i can't tell the difference between the milo variations...

I've heard the UK stuff is made in the middle east or is the same as the stuff there?? It's not as fine, slightly darker, more granular and tastes inferior to the Oz stuff.

hahahaha what sort of english women have you met?! :P

My milo says it was made in Kenya, and now that you mention it, it does seem more granular. Interesting.
I have no comments on english women.

I used to eat a LOT of it (straight from the tin) so I noticed a difference with the local stuff right away.

*Another possible use is making a normal cup of cold Milo and microwaving it for approximately 40-60 seconds. This gives the Milo drink a biscuity cover on top.

Intriguing. Going to buy some on my way to brick lane tomorrow! :D

i used to do this, but ended up just eating the molten chocolatey mess off the top!

i want to do a blind tasting of real vs fake milo.

maybe also do a tasting of coopers pale, while we're there.
