New - The things that really annoy you

[Jack Regan]

The day I accept a lecture from an American on my choice of beer will be the day I quit drinking. There's a time and place for a perfectly acceptable imported lager and watching darts whilst supposedly working is definitely it.

Chill and have a Bud Lite dude

I'm incredibly tetchy due to said work and the fact I've now got to go to Lidl (I'll accept lectures on my choice of supermarket though).

 

[Lupo]

I'm with Jack, Peroni is a fine lager, my favourite. Much better than that Bud piss!

 

[Alan]

I’m genuinely hurt that the assumption is that I’d ever suggest such pisswater!

 

[BillyDee]

PBR, right?

Pick up some genuine Czech Staropramen while you're there. Lidl import it rather than buy the UK brewed stuff which all the other supermarkets do.

Over the usual American stereotypes, absolutely! Though that’s almost certainly more about fond remembrances of my university years.

I’ll always be a micro or nano brewery snob. The big brands are corporate shells to me, nothing more.

Yep if I do the lager route the imported Staropramen in Lidl is usually my choice (the Peroni were a Christmas present).

I did also treat myself to a visit to the Wine Seller in Compton on Monday and picked up some decent Belgian and German offerings.

Opened a tub of Cadburys Heroes and there is one Wispa in there. Fucking ONE!

Keep it quiet

We do so need an eye roll emoji.

Thanks for that tip. Had stopped drinking the UK brewed stuff.

This year we just bought the bags of mini Wispas rather than a tub of Heroes.

Roses are always the best Chrimbo chocolates.

Hi Gran.

 

[The Bear]

Heroes and Celebrations are incredibly boring. They should be marketed to old people and idiots. Just mini versions of stuff I can eat all year round. Errr yeah great....

At least Roses and Quality Street try do something different. And the strawberry/orange centred ones are fab.

That said a nice box of Thorntons ones are good. As a re Ferrero Roche, but you get sick of them very quickly

Try having one or two and leaving the rest for another day rather than eating the whole box in one go

I genuinely have no idea what you mean by this.
