And not be called a "girl"? I like lager and lime. And cider and black. So shoot me.

Tesco finest ginger beer is nice.

tigerdriver-you are thinking of Barley Wine. My god that stuff is/was lethal. Can you still get it?

tigerdriver · 25/04/2009 00:35

I have several very very cold cans in my booze fridge. They are very cold and inviting.

MaryMotherOfCheeses · 25/04/2009 00:40

Well, Lager's foul so why not make a mess of it with lime.

tigerdriver · 25/04/2009 00:44

by the way all, the stuff in my booze fridge is ginger beer not barley wine.

Midlands. who knows? yes, not barley ale, barley wine, the winos delight, little bottles of murky brew designed to get you pissed instantly. I am certainly not going to check it out. I did enough of that 30 yrs ago!!!

Tiger-30 odd years ago (er, 37 actually in my 1st job after leaving school one of the women in our Accounts Dept used to have 2 bottles of Barley Wine & 2 bottles of Pils lager with her lunch . I tried a sip of the barley wine once-never again!!!!!!

OMG, I thought I drank a lot, that would send me to bed for the rest of the day.

I bet this was deep in the Black Country, or maybe in the bits of Worcestershire that didn't have gymkhanas.

Yep,Black Country. And she still managed to balance all the figures with just a crappy adding machine (no calculators then). This was in the good old days when the Directors and most of the workers spent their lunch hours in the pub. Unlike today unless you work at Underworld on Corrie .

Totally off topic now-don't suppose you remember the Comptometer do you? We used to calculate our payroll on this til we upgraded to an NCR .

In Taiwan, larger and tomato juice is mystifyingly popular.

Just tried ginger beer shandy. Half of each was too fiery for me so I did more of a ginger beer top. 3/4 pint beer and about 1/4 pint ginger beer.
