    Joe

    Thanks for your detailed response and useful suggestions.

    If I was to put 360 quorn sausages in the cool box, how many bottles of gin could I fit in please?

    I generally work on one bottle of tonic to every 3 bottles of gin
     
  2. One is one too many:D

    Dear Paul

    If you were to put 360 quorn sausages in our cool box, then you would still have room for 15 litres of Gin & tonic.

    That equates perfectly to 12 x 75cl bottles of gin mixed with 4 litres of tonic water (based on your mix ratio, which we think is a little on the strong side).

    Again these calculations do not account for packaging & I'm not sure how tasty our Gin & Tonic will be if you leave uncooked quorn sausages floating in it!

    The upside is that your veggie sausages will be infused with gin & tonic and therefore you probably won't need cool box storage space for any condiments such as ketchup.

    Your enquiry has led to some interesting discussion here at head office.

    Our data analyst has interrogated the data base to see the relationship between quorn sausages and gin and tonic purchases.
    There does indeed seem to be a direct relationship, for internal purposes we have compiled a list of the top purchasers and are looking to see if there are any geographical trends.

    Strangely whilst you appear on our list of quorn sausages buyers, you don't appear to have bought any Gin & Tonic from us.

    So either you aren't a fan of our gin or you are asking these questions on behalf of a friend with a drink and sausage problem?

    In the last 12 calendar months Lidl's top purchaser of Quorn Sausages & Gin & Tonic is Lisa from West Yorkshire, who has purchased the following quantities:

    Quorn Sausages 379 packets 0r 2274 sausages (6 x 379 = 2274)
    Gin 142 bottles
    Tonic 48 bottles

    Data protection prevents us revealing full details, but thought you may be interested to know that they buy three times more quorn sausages than our next highest sausage buyer. However Lisa is not even close to being the biggest buyer of Gin & tonic in the last 12 months.

    I hope our reply has answered your further enquiry.

    Thank you for raising it with us and for the discussion it led to at head office.

    Please do not hesitate to contact us again with any other questions you have - sausage related or otherwise.

    Yours sincerely
