2 years of anticipation though, plus you can spend those 2 years enjoying your weekends because you don't get much time working in the pub. We're lucky if we get over an hour at the clubs when we finish because we are finishing that late and by that time you're so tired anyway its not worth going..... unless you've picked up a few phone numbers and even then it still seems like a mission ------------- Dennis Watson 49er GBR735 http://www.helensburghsailingclub.co.uk/ - Helensburgh S.C http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=560 - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine |

any cider which isn't blackthorn. Or when in Germany where they didn't seem to have cider the German weisbeer (Really bad spelling, but I did french instead) Wheat beer anyway.

Mcewans 80 seems to be the mature choice where I'm from. If you want to be an alcoholic, Tennants Super Lager is the drink of choice, it's well above 12% alcohol content (could be 16).

[QUOTE=hurricane] em hello the black stuff!!!! but it has to be in Ireland it just doesnt taste the same here! QUOTE] I was in NZ for St Patrick's Day and had the most awful Guinness ever, absolutely foul - it definitely has to be drunk in Ireland to be enjoyed properly. While in NZ however I did discover a yummy ginger lager can't remember what it was called but very delicious and thrist quenching... pretty potent too... ------------- If you're not smiling, do something about it :o) |
