Fifty or sixty bottles worth from what I recall. That was very late 70's or early 80's just before I moved up to Saffron Walden. This guy was always at it. No matter where he worked he was always pulling something and seemed to move jobs often without any trouble. Bit of a likable rogue. In reality he was actually quite a clever chap when you got talking to him but somehow seemed to have drifted into dodgy dealing. If it had been thirty years earlier then there's no doubt that he would have been the chap to know during war rationing.....

I didn't move back to the same area after I returned from S.Walden so I've no idea if he ever got caught pulling one of his tricks.
