Let us attempt a thread that isn't deleted.

Just for a lark.

Are you SURE this isn't a TAAT?

I have no wine. Only flat diet coke. I wouldn't recommend it.

yellowraincoat · 22/12/2011 19:39

Is port and lemonade nice? I'm about to go out to a festive get together and everyone laughed at the idea of advocaat.

Sophisticated BASTARDS.

Hullygully · 22/12/2011 19:39

Broom - NOPE.

I was dead pissed up when I had the cola in red wine drink but it tasted nice at the time. (I didn't order it at the bar BTW, I pinched it off a Spanish girl. Confused)

GeraldineHoHoHobergine · 22/12/2011 19:40

What is the lemon part meant to be then? Lemon squash? Lemsip? I tend to use brandy as a mixer as a rule but I'm being sober tonight as mr Geraldine has been on a work 'luncheon' and is shitfaced.

TuftyFinch · 22/12/2011 19:40

My MIL drinks red wine and ... coke.

toddlerama · 22/12/2011 19:40

You know what's minging? Kalimoxto, that thing they have in Spain that is red wine and coke mixed together.

HEAVING at the thought.

Hullygully · 22/12/2011 19:41

No Geraldine, I think you're right. Port and Lemon is Port and Lemonade.

I always thought it was port - with a slice of lemon in it.

(port and lemsip would be AWESOME. PORT AND NIGHT NURSE? )

BroomBuBuBum · 22/12/2011 19:42

I always miss everything Sad

Also port an lemonade sounds vile.

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 22/12/2011 19:42

Oh has the Royalty one gone too?

yellowraincoat · 22/12/2011 19:42

Oh I see we've discussed Kalimoxto already. Blush

I had a snowball in 1983 and got really drunk. (I was about ten at the time)

Now, when the American's speak of eggnog, are they speaking of advocaat?

yellowraincoat · 22/12/2011 19:43

See, I think Snowballs would be a hit at this soiree. So why did everyone scoff at me yesterday?

GeraldineHoHoHobergine · 22/12/2011 19:43

I have been known to have port and night nurse. Tough times call for tough solutions. That or a gin and sudafed.

BroomBuBuBum · 22/12/2011 19:43

I do like red wine and orange juice though, pure class me.

Gapants · 22/12/2011 19:44

I am having a Bailey's. My DH thinks it is hilarious, says it is a kids drink Shock

yellowraincoat · 22/12/2011 19:44

Eggnog is advocaat plus milk, that is a Christmas fact.

crazycrackernanna · 22/12/2011 19:44

I picked up a drunk guy off the floor today and walked him home,put his key in the door and got him safely.

Made me feel good to get the silly drunk sod home Smile

diabolo · 22/12/2011 19:44

My DS loves his snowballs. The sophistication of a 12 year old ? Confused

They're much better homemade, loads of advocaat, bit of lemonade, dash of lime cordial. The shop bought ones are a bit lightweight.

ShirleyKnotChristmas · 22/12/2011 19:45

haha! Geraldine.

Red Wine and Orange jiuce? Good LORD!

Yello - snowballs will go down a bloody treat! People sneer at stuff sometimes but they'll LOVE it (Sherry, I LOVE a glass of sherry - would never buy it or serve it at it is "naff" but if I get offered a glass I'm all OVER that bitch like a dog on heat)

GeraldineHoHoHobergine · 22/12/2011 19:45

It's not Christmas unless we have cherry B served in a special cocktail glass. I feel a bit wistful.
