FLETCH'S PORRIDGE

HAVING A SCOT IN THE HOUSE, UNFORTUNATELY I OFTEN COME ACROSS 'PORRIDGE' LURKING ABOUT THE KITCHEN. WHY ANYONE WOULD WANT TO EAT THE FOOD EQUIVALENT OF WALLPAPER PASTE - I DON'T KNOW?

THE ONLY 'PORRIDGE' I WILL EVER LIKE IS THE CLASSIC SERIES FROM THE 70'S STARRING RONNIE BARKER. (AND OTHER GREAT BRITISH ACTORS) PORRIDGE IS 40 YEARS OLD THIS YEAR - SO WHY NOT RAISE A PINT TO CELEBRATE THIS ICONIC SERIES?

'FLETCH'S PORRIDGE' IS AVAILABLE AT THE FOLLOWING FINE ALE HOUSES.
