What's in your glass?

[Stig]

how many beers now? or have you lost count, as is traditional on one's birthday

Believe it or not, I am only just about to embark on Beer No. 3. The night is young. And, I have been on the phone to rich!s mum for quite some time, which was a bit of an interruption, but I did get to hear several VERY interesting facts about rich! when he was a baby which may come in useful later.

Do they get rats to piss on Strongbow cans before selling them?

Probably

well, that was always what we learned as teenagers

 

[sojourner]

Oh, and mmm that's a fucking lovely rioja

 

[Fuchs66]

A nice cold bottle of Pilsner Urquell the good stuff

 

[Pseudopsycho]

Crystal Camel

 

[Stig]

#4, a light summer ale.

Dinner is in the oven, I'm very impressed at just how much cheese I managed to get on top of the mash. Shallow, wide, spaceship shaped lecrusets FTW. Pub straight after that.

 

[Shirl]

Finished me wine, just having a little armagnac for the road, well the few steps to the bedroom

 

[Voley]

River 216 Shiraz. Top marks for wanky name, mediocre points for the wine.

 

[Dillinger4]

A bottle of Corona and a shot of tequila.

 

[ddraig]

should get some desperados! lush

mix of aspalls cider and sam smiths lager here

 

[Dillinger4]

Do you mean that Desperados beer? That stuff is fucking RANK.

It was good. Gonna get a few more.

 

[snackhead]

fresh orange juice

 

[Voley]

Poppy tea, one sugar, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, ginger. Still tastes like shit no matter how you try and sweeten it. It's highly doubtful I'll give a fuck in half an hour or so, mind.

 

[invisibleplanet]

orange and mango juice

 

[Voley]

Balvenie Doublewood. Fnarr.

12 year old single malt. Mmm.

 

[sojourner]

Castillo San Lorenzo Fincas

umummmmmm

 

[Maurice Picarda]

Bottle Green aromatic lime. The dreary second cousin in an otherwise scintillating family of drinks.

 

[sojourner]

Still sober then maurice?

hard work?

 

[DotCommunist]

It is about to be the blood of a parsons terrier called Tank who is pushing his fucking luck.

 

[Maurice Picarda]

hard work?

Not really. I notice it most of an evening when transitioning from stressed commuting to being officially relaxed, something which I used to formalise by getting incapable with brutally efficient speed. And at work events a similar transition from meeting mode to pretend relaxation mode is marked with trays of booze, and opting out of the ritual seems odd. But it's not that it's tricky, just that it isn't as distant a memory as smoking is, where I don't notice any of the former cues at all.
