    We talking the proper stuff with alcohol or the virgin American prepack stuff they have in their supermarkets?

    As far as I know, this is something you have to make yourself. Given the cream and cost of all the booze it's expensive and doesn't last long either. When done right it is freakin delicious tho.

    Tesco has it and Aldi/Lidl usually will have it on offer closer to christmas, but do try making it yourself, it's better.

    Not sure, ask next time you're in for shopping.

    FYI I've been keeping an eye out since you said this, having never noticed it on previous years. Been to Tesco/Dunnes/Aldi all within the last few days and am certain they don't carry egg nog.

    I am surprised at just how many types of milk they do carry when you actually stop and look. Skittles milk? Gah. Smart milk? It's amazing they don't carry it given some of the strange stuff I saw.

    Ivor's in Westside have real trees. Last year I got a nice one in the B&Q garden centre, I imagine they're doing them this year as well.
