The Masked Tulip Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Well it's Friday night. So what beverage or other products are you consuming tonight? My corner shop has got orangeboom in at 8 for £7.50 so that's me sorted for some sedation. Is that tin or bottle? Have not seen it in bottles for some years now. Home Bargains sells it in cans. I have a bottle of red spanish wine from an M&S meal deal. Earlier this week I was drinking finiest German pilsner - it could be Czech - from Lidl.

The XYY Man Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Just got back from the Co-op with my Friday night booze stash. 3 bottles of Newcy Brown for a fiver, and a bottle of Whyte & Mackay on offer at thirteen quid. That should keep me going until three or four in the morning... XYY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPin Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 That's very good of you Reebo, I'll have one of those then please as you're not going to drink all eight. Eight cans is an aperatif, before you start serious drinking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honkydonkey Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 In a campsite in south of France so should be on the red. However, I haven't/can't be bothered to go out so I'm drinking water. I do have a brew on the go mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Currently packaged in bottles, 330/500/660ml and cans, 330/500ml with alcohol volume percentages of 0% 5% 8.5% 12%' Two of those strengths Id be impressed. One of those you're a lightweight.

The XYY Man Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I imagine you will be up early to collimate the telescope! Due to being the Test Engineer responsible for setting-up and calibrating a laser-measurement product at a previous job - I do know what collimating an optical system involves. I'd explain further, but I'm far too pissed... XYY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to make a hole in something that didn't have a hole in it previously, so I stuck a post-it over it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notMyName Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 She probably thinks she's married a lightweight. Nah were not married 'Currently packaged in bottles, 330/500/660ml and cans, 330/500ml with alcohol volume percentages of 0% 5% 8.5% 12%' Two of those strengths Id be impressed. One of those you're a lightweight. It's the 500ml @ 5% 12% is a bit harsh tbh. Only if your definition of "a good sign" includes sleeping on the couch tonight... XYY Its fine, I let her have a couple of cans, and she is nullified Was it a Brangelina look? Dunno, what look would that look, look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honkydonkey Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Young people today have no drive. Get out there and get drunk. It's Friday. Haha. I tend to use the weekends as recovery periods these days. Happier with a steady 5 nights drinking rather than two. I'll be sure to invest in a couple of 5 litre boxes on Sunday :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One-percent Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Going posh tonight after a summer trip to Southwold. I discovered Adnams gin, the copper house http://adnams.co.uk/spirits/our-spirits/distilled-gin/ Pairing it up with fever tree tonic. Nice.
