We've all got a drink like that.


For me it's Southern Comfort.

Necked it from the bottle at a party, dressed like some Bohemian Phil Oakey inspired gigalo, trying to impress a girl called Gwen.


I was found passed out, head in the toilet bowl, by her and her cousin. My best flamboyant New Romantic frilly shirt liberally flecked with vomit.


She resisted my further advancements that night.





And every other night to this day if I'm being honest.

Whisky was my downfall, went next door to a NY party at our Neighbours, he was a fisherman, so we had to drink half and half's, which is half of bitter and a shot of whisky. I was ill for 3 days afterwards, and never touched a drop of whisky ever again.

There's still some old pubs in Glasgow that do a 'pony' and a house whisky on special offer..(pony being an old measure equal to a quarter pint of beer).

Talking of pubs in Glasgow,I was standing at the bar in one last week and an old boy asked for a 'black and tan'.Barman said "we don't have any".

Me and The old fella just looked at each other and laughed!!The old bloke had to explain to him that he wanted half a pint of ale topped with half a Guinness.

I thought when I started to read it, it was going to be a joke about Biden and the All Blacks.<laugh>

Does this feed into your animosity towards all things Caledonian, John?
