Dear Gourmands,

I need to buy a tin of rillettes. Any flavour. By Thursday night.

If you know of a retail outlet (supermarket or specialist shop, though the latter may be tricky to get to!) please drop me a comment.

Sadly, I do not have time to go cross-Channel and pick up a gross for a couple of euros.

ooooh! Do you think I might commission him to shop for me?

D just phoned me from Ashford, so I mentioned your needs. The plan was already for D to go shopping for marrons glaces etc. but we're not sure if there'll be rillettes in nearby shops. Hopefully, D will be online from the astronomy institute by this afternoon, and can communicate with you directly. F&M is not a possibility?

F&M will be very difficult for me to get to -- I work in Horsham and shan't be in London before Friday night (though a Minion should be at the Ton). If D can drop me an email this afternoon, I'll explain requirement -- if local shops won't provide, I shall think of something else! Thank you ever so, though, for facilitating ...

I work next door to F&M, and can drop in and buy something, then bring it to the ton.

that's ever so kind of you! Let me check with D in Paris, but if it's not straightforward for him then F&M is certainly the best option. I shan't be at the Ton myself but will send a minion with monies. You are a star, Dr P!
