Port

[Kerry]

Ordered the groceries from Tesco and in there was (someone elses no doubt) bottle of port.

I have never ever tasted it. Nor want to (dunno why) so who do I palm it off on? :joker:

[Shaun]

it's gross.

[Niamh.]

do you have a great aunt or great grand mother? failing that send it to Dot Cotton

[Kerry]

it's gross.

Yeah, that's what I heard and I don't want to open it and waste it

[Kerry]

:D

Port + Blue WKD + Tonic Water = Cheeky Vimtos :amazed:

[Kerry]

Port + Blue WKD + Tonic Water = Cheeky Vimtos :amazed:

That sounds like a puke waiting to happen

[Josy]

It tastes just like vimto, you should try it

[Shaun]

I haven't had a cheeky vimto with tonic water :conf2:

[InOne]

What does port itself taste like?

[Josy]

I haven't had a cheeky vimto with tonic water :conf2:

I've had it with and without tonic water, the ones that never used tonic water had crushed ice instead.

[Kerry]

What does port itself taste like?

It's apparently a "fortified wine" so I guess really strong tasting wine

Sounds ok then :amazed:

[Bollo]

Yes its hideous, palm it off on some Aunt/Uncle you don't like much..

[Kerry]

Ewwww dunno. I'm not keen on wine over 13% at best. This is 20-odd :laugh:

The only good port is Port Ellen. Unfortunately the good ones are now worth £5k so you shouldn't drink them but instead sell them on eBay to rich Americans or Japanese. One time we had a power cut for 3 days in da village + snowed-in so I unwisely cracked a 1971 Cask Strength bottle with my next-door neighbour.

The bugger said "do you have any coke to put in this to kill the taste?" GRRRR

[InOne]

[Kerry]

I think this bottle's about 12 squid :laugh:

Then again, for nowt........

[InOne]

Bushmills is my christmas drink

[Claymores]

Bushmills is my christmas drink

Black Bush is better Joe if the budget allows! When about your age my pal Alice had dark hair, so it always amused my small mind to say in the bar when it was her round "I'd like a Black Bush please darling" :)

[Kerry]

I wonder why people drink differently from their normal tipple at Xmas

Nice :joker:

I have had it. But prefer the regular at Xmas, just a nice drink to get slowly drunk on

[InOne]

Baileys and whiskey I love at Christmas for some reason. Just get the taste for it

[Claymores]

Are you gonna get out that rancid 6 year old bottle of Baileys Kerster or stick to the coconut rum that nobody ever wants either?!

[Kerry]

Baileys and whiskey I love at Christmas for some reason. Just get the taste for it

I can't stand even looking at Baileys. It makes me retch :joker:

[InOne]

It's lovely!!! lol

[InOne]

That must be an English thing - pubs are generally closed on 25th up here in the sticks

[InOne]

They open 12-2 then at night a bit here. But that is quite old skool, it's changing now seen as not a lot of the traditional pubs are left

Wine all day? :amazed:

[Kerry]

[Claymores]

My (now deceased) auntie was always funny at Xmas when I'd go visit...........she'd insist on giving me a can of Tennents lager from her 'special collection' stored right next to the heating boiler. HMMMMMM - a warm can of beer with a sell-by date of 1978 of so :joker:

[InOne]

People seem to prefer the stronger stuff around xmas

[Kerry]

Warm alcohol :yuk:

[InOne]

You been on the usual tonight Kerry?

[Claymores]

Get some Polish Pure Spirit in Joe - google it - it is 79.9%. I just googled + one of the hits came back "nail polish remover".

Maybe I've bored you with our game before but here it is again...........You get a shot glass of Polish Pure and have to dip little finger into it. Then set light to little finger. Only allowed to blow it out after you've done the nip down InOne. The fun bit is that this stuff makes you unable to exhale - totally body-crunching - so you can make the players get 3rd degree burns when they can't exhale to put finger out :joker:

[Kerry]

You been on the usual tonight Kerry?

Aye, wine and a couple of ciders. Planned to let my hair down but time is running away :/

[Claymores]

Warm alcohol :yuk:

From 1978 or so! No wonder I was always ill come 27.12!

[InOne]

Time has gone slow for me today lol just had a few beers and finishing off the wine now

Moan or just request a forum? :laugh:

[Claymores]

This is what gave me the impression tho - it was unlike Kerster to berate the site unless IAC was important to her

[Kerry]

Eh?

[Kerry]

Yeah, neither have I. Just the port and Blue WKD.

[Kate!]

topic has probably moved on by now but I just read the first page of thread and am using quick reply so do excuse me, lol. Cheeky vimtos are gorgeous with lemonade Josy.

Kerry - if there are any christmas fairs near you, you could donate the bottle for a raffle? :)
