Thanks, Jayne. Whenever I win some Staggers prize -- Tesco vouchers, a book token -- that wouldn't be negotiable on this side of the Atlantic, I have them send it to my brother-in-law in Dorset. I haven't asked him exactly how much the vouchers are for, but he tells me that two of them can defray the cost of "a few bottles of wine." Plonk? Good stuff? I don't know.

Default Tesco bonus

2 cards = £30, i.e. 3 or 4 bottles of decent wine. Or 1 litre of Bombay Sapphire & 1 bottle of drinkable wine. Or almost 2 litres of Carlos III brandy (which you might get in one of the larger Tescos).

Your brother-in-law's a lucky chap, Chris, reaping the benefits from all your UK winnings! "A few bottles of wine" are always a welcome addition to the Tesco shopping, I find.

Cheers! Here's to you! Bottoms up! You might like to have a peep at this
