His Grace The Rev. Dick Gazinya Sends British Things

Over the years, I’ve met a great many people doing what I do, but none quite like my frien, His Grace the Rev. Dick Gazinya. He’s traveled the globe, seen the ravages of humanity as well as it’s triumphs, and built an empire on Tharg IV with aplomb and Daesenex rivers, healing the inheritors of the greatest ramen in the world.

#4136: Lost The Pot Noodle Roast Chicken Flavour - United Kingdom

I did four of them, all current as of review 3545. This list hasn’t been updated since 2017.
