I dunno. I reckon a beer is the most refreshing thing on a hot day. I do quite like the taste of beer. I like the taste of some whiskeys too, mostly peaty scotches.

I'd agree with that but with the moreish nature of alcohol I can't just sink 3 or 4 cans and leave it at that which is a shame because the drinking is really at it's best when it first starts to excite you. It's all downhill after those first few yet it's virtually impossible to not want to go on.

As for alcohol not tasting nice ... balls to that. Few things are nicer than a good Guiness.

I just don't like the hangover feeling. That's the only objection I have to getting drunk, even though I'm wasted so often.

Lagers nice on a hot day. Also if you're sat outside in the evening cider and orange is so refreshing

Same. I never usually get too bad because, although I drink a lot, I drink slowly so I never get to a stage where I don't know what I'm doing.

Yeah, but I guess it depends on where you are. Some drink every day but it moderation cos it's just part of their culture. And probably never go overboard. But some just go crazy at the weekends

Madness. It's a delicious beverage. Pulled in a good pub mind you. No watered down club nonsense or cans or bottles. That's heresy.

Guiness is super easy to drink, tastes great, is just about the right strength, and is a proven source of iron.

It also has this odd tendancy to wake my body up at 6 or 7 the next morning feeling fresh as a daisy. If I go back to sleep I have awfully strong dreams because of the sudden influx of proper REM sleep.

And it doesn't get you drunk quickly. I usually dilute mine with coke, though.

I notice it helps if you feel unbearably tired.

I think they used to actually encourage pregnant women to have a pint of stout/Guinness a day as it was so enriched in iron

Random useless fact of the day....

1. When I go down the shop and I show them my ID, only to discover they don't take 'out of date' PPs, which results in me going home to get my 'up to date' card to show them.

"Am only doing me job, lad"

**** off.

2. When foods that have been known and loved for decades change to 'new and improved'. Basically, it means 'from quality taste to absolutely tasteless crap that we want you to waste good money on'. Effing jokers.

OH-MY-GOD!!! Sorry but if the whole world is watching the Jubille concert, so far it's an embarassment. All the acts sound like they're drunk or strangled cats. Prince harry and wills do not look amused!!!
