Finish work early (previously been allowed an hour or so in pub). Bucks Fizz on offer in the office, and then off for a few after work. Have to say, I've had a few now and a bit merry. Anyone else? It is Xmas after all, you guys. The wrapping can wait until tomorrow...
one hour to go then all hell will be breaking loose for me too! gotta love a good xmas piss up especially when all my family are still in hull and cant get there so looks like my mates will have to stand in hahaha
I was in old town for a couple. Getting pretty busy, to be honest morons all over. Despite that, it was decent. I'm moving on to coffee now so I can get up in the morning and get to the gym (boring I know). Best time of year for a beer up.
I shall allow myself a medicinal brandy by the fire when I get home later. Francois Voyeur or Daniel Boujou are my preferred tipples at the moment. I might even don my smoking jacket. Lovely jubbly.
**** the coffee get on the guiness!!!!!!!!!!! I've had 1...2...3...4 spilt 5 in the kitchen and on me 6th now!!
cant do too much guiness unless its from the pubs in Dublin tastes like **** over here lol i shall be on the Jim Beam when i finish work me thinks!!
It's like drinking aniseed nails. It's all I have though. I'm meant to be saving myself for tomorrow's beers. Once you pop you can't stop though, I find.
yeah i have that problem i got a 6 hour shift tomorro afternoon so dont think i will go to crazy but come 7pm tomorrow and nothing gonna stop me getting fooked up!!!!!! apart from maybe running outta money lol
It's a difficult drink to put away, I reckon. My dad reckons it's nice with a bit of water and ice. I dunno. I'm gonna have a bit mind, I'll report back...
Don't forget that great myth that if you add water to Ouzo, it turns into more Ouzo. It definitely doesn't, it just turns to watered down Ouzo. Many years ago, a bunch of us were in Ios and we'd heard about this magical drink, so we all tried to have a night out with nothing more than a large Ouzo each, accompanied by a large bottle of water each. I had to order a pint by about 8.30 and I spent the whole might feeling like I'd just brushed my teeth. I find the national drinks of most countries taste like piss, the worst is Italy, they make great food, they have great wine and beer, then they make their national drink Limoncello. Who's idea was that? It's like alcoholic washing up liquid.
I heard stories such as; "If you drink a load of Ouzo the night before, it all turns to crystals in your stomach. Then, when you drink water in the morning, it turns back into liquid, so you get drunk again" Obviously I believed it as I was a skinny, impressionable 17 year old. It just made me sick.
ive just got in from my works night out in town, pubs are too busy and noisy so i left, ha ha..its definately a young mans game at 29 i think im officially retired.
