There's about ten gins in the house, yesterday's tipples were Brockmans and OPIHR oriental spiced. There's half a dozen different tonics as well, I think yesterday's was elderflower.
It's actually just a clever marketing ploy, like Magners conning people to put ice in their cider, and charging them twice as much for it It was deemed necessary after more and more people realised that expensive aftershave was a con, so stopped buying it. The companies needed something to shift the raw materials, et voilá, the push for Gin was born, and backed by companies that make **** fizzy pop, they can now flog as a mixer for an inflated price to fashion slaves. FACT. Luckily we're not daft enough to fall for such an obvious scam.
There's a lot of talk about this Gin but i'm a bit confused as to which team he plays for. Can any body enlighten me?
I always think gin as a drink for grannies and wannabe hipsters. Anyway this is the match thread and I keep thinking that it would be good to see two strikers up top together in Campbell and Dicko and a central midfield of Meyler and Toral or Irvine. But I don't want Bowen dropping so that would mean going back to 442
I don't like Ophir. Brockmans is nice. I've always liked Gin. It becoming popular just means I have a chance to try lots of different types. Out of fashion but Gordon's is still a nice tipple.
There's some weird ones here, some blue gin that turns pink when you put the tonic in and one in a wine type bottle with a cork, which presumably you're supposed to drink in one sitting as you can't get the cork back in.
Agreed. Exactly the same with poncey coffee. Drink Yorkshire Tea not skinny latte mochachino espresso bollocks. If you're drinking coffee you can't beat Mellow Birds(ugh) and you don't have to pay £3 a cup. The real mugs are not the ones containing the overpriced beverage.
A good omen for today: the AFL's Richmond Tigers just won to reach their first grand final since 1982. (Disclaimer: the last time I said a Richmond win was a good omen, City went to Derby and got their arses kicked.)
