................................Having Thunked

All this tittle tattle about Cider, beer, fortified wines etc has got me in the 1980 Christmas Spirit, days of yore getting the eldest looking underager (complete with Baz moustache) getting the carry out from the Off License.

Carlsberg Special Brew, Vodka. So much utter ****e to choose from at such a young age.

Tried Buckfast once, never again, foul ****ing stuff.

Four Crown anyone?

Jesus, all was fair game back in the day but good fun all the same.

What was your underage tipple?

 

Cheap sherry and a few cans of Kestrel out of the 'Offy' at the Westt End then into the alley at the back of 'Binns' to down the lot pronto. Then off to either 'The Cav' or 'The Nash' for a bit of Hootenanny!

These hobbies ceased when I became a poof!

 

Bottle of Merrydown and a quarter bottle of vodka.

Agree with you on Buckfast. Like drinking alcoholic cough mixture. Boak inducing.

Worst thing I ever got drunk on? A bottle of cherry brandy stolen from a friend's house. Was bad enough going down. Coming back up was a thousand times worse.

 

I am a strict teetotaller but I recall being handed a Snowball as a youth. Advocaat with lemonade and if you were lucky a cherry on a toothpick floating in it. We loved the idea of getting a boozy drink at Christmas but truth be told Snowballs are f.ucking rank and I don't think I ever finished one.

Of course now if I am offered a Snowball it brings up an entirely different connotation.

Just remembered a recent tipple I thought I'd try as I am a fan of the Italian popster Eros Ramazzotti. I tried a night on the 'Ramazzotti' in, I think, Nurnberg and technicoloured the f****n' hotel bedroom!

 

Ah, mammaries are made of this.

Royal Ditch lager anyone?

Or perhaps a vintage Charger?

 

Must you lower the tone, you absolute bounder!!

 

I think it was Royal Dutch, but it tasted like it had been brewed in a ditch.

 

I really should proof read my own ****!!

But yeah, Dutch. Wonder if you still get it.

 

I must, I must.

 

Smithwicks

 

When I started drinking , cider - merrydown mainly with a few cans of tennents or breaker

Then vodka and fresh orange juice (sold in glass milk bottles with a few cans of tennents or breaker

Moved into buckfast with a few cans of tennents or breaker

Buckfast with a castaway in it

Buckfast with lager in it

Any cheap sherry as well...

Then moved onto spirits and lager but always at least a half bottle of buckfast before heading out

****in love buckto

 

Ah ..................... Breaker!

 

^^^^^ Fat ****. The Frank Cannon of this site.

 

Have I won my title back ?

 

Did someone else become the "resident fatty" on here?

 

What did you call it when you mixed a ****load of drinks from your parent's drinks cabinet? Vodka, whisky, brandy, **** it even the Advocaat. All mixed together in a 2l plastic bottle with a shot of coke.

If you managed to down a bottle of that without throwing up then passing out then you're a better man than me.

 

Gotta story about this hobby which I undertook with a Ukranian guy I went to school with. I don't know any of you well enough to relate this narrative to you c**ts!

 

Trev

 

Oh yeah, that's right.

The Blob.
