[i]Reminds me I must try a snakebite made from entirely from Stella products [/i]
Why weaken a perfectly good pint of Stella by putting Cidre in it?
A triumph of marketing for 'the mad apples'.
When I were a lad, cider was either for mixing with lager and blackcurrant juice on Thursday nights out at uni, the primary food group of dog-on-a-string type crusties or the park bench companion of the hopelessly alcoholic.
Now its expensively advertised on telly and sold for OVER FOUR QUID A BOTTLE in nice bars and drunk enthusiastically by all sorts of people.
Still tastes the same to me. The only thing that's changed is the marketing. Fair play to them.
Guy I used to work with made his snakebites from Special Brew and Diamond White. I tried it once. Thank God I was at home and close to the bed / toilet.
Nice to see you yesterday Derek.
Assume it wasn't you getting a free helicopter ride from Ringley Road then?
Looked a bit serious, that one.

Their Perry ain't bad either.

Good to see you and Mrs. Spanner. You look like you've lost some weight too Rusty.
We got home safe if a tad cold. Nasty incident on Ringley Rd. Eight year old girl air lifted out with serious head injuries after being hit by a car. How awful.
Sweet Jesus! Only on STW could you get a huge argument about the quality, or otherwise, of what is essentially Tramp Juice 😀
Showerings (Gaymers) in Shepton Mallet are making it. The apples are actually Oirish though.

if you can manage more than a pint and a half of Black Rat and not soil yourself where you stand, you're more of a man than i
Or this rather fine establishment:

You've got to love the simplicity of this place sometimes.
Same thing over and over again.
[b]OP: [/b]I like (insert whatever)
[b]Replies:[/b] You're nowhere near as good as I am, because I like something else. And I think it's better than what you like.
So obviously that makes me better than you.
and so on.
[edit- fixed it

You forgot the "...and it makes [i]me[/i] better too"
But yes, you're correct.
Would I be right in thinking that Magners is reassuringly expensive?

You've soiled yourself where you've stood? 😯
Sweety Jesus of Nazareth man; do you not think it would be a good idea [i]not[/i] to drink the stuff then?
I suggest your authentic types try "Roger Wilkins"
