UTC is indebted to Paul Seenan of Edrington-Beam Suntory, a good friend of SLR, who took time out of his holiday in Spain recently to snap a wee fotie that he thought readers might be interested in.
Unlikely as it seems, it’s apparently a vending machine outside of a butcher’s shop where customers can pick up some steaks and snags for the barbie 24 hours a day, as well as a wee bottle of Coke or two to wash it down – perfect for those 3am barbies that Spaniards are so fond of. [Are they? Are they really? – Ed]
A nice, creative approach to satisfying more unusual shopping missions, mused the auld yin, but he did wonder what would happen to a machine like that if it was on, say, Duke Street in the east end of Glasgow.
