[Drinking] Friday Night "Tomorow's a big'un" drinking thread

[Superphil]

A couple of pints of Hepworth Old Ale which is really rather good, followed by a couple of Woodford Reserves. Big night out tomorrow including my first visit to Latino Grill.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Can of Red Stripe and 2 Pot Noodles (Chicken and Mushroom).
Almond Magnum
1/4 of a litre of Famous Grouse

I've been on a bit of a bender today, I'm not proud to admit. Jury service finished at 11.45, so I was at something of a loose end. Ended up mincing into town, having a pub lunch (getting a receipt as I can claim £5.71 back from the Queen on expenses). One thing led to another, I got embroiled watching the curling, and eventually rolled home at about 9.30. Battered.

Sorry. Am I even on the right thread ?

Living. The. Dream.

Makes me feel better for filling up my wine glass (drained of Prosecco) with some ropey Old Rosie cider I found in the house.

That sounds like the worst recipe in the history of the world.

I also managed to upset someone in my local, who got a phone call at the bar and had to leave, as his dog needed taking to the vets. He came back about an hour or two later. I asked jovially, and unwisely "so, is it an ex-dog ?". Yup. It had liver cancer, it had just been put down.

FML.

And a pickled egg

"Place all ingredients under a low heat for half an hour before cranking it up to 220 and running away, making sure to leave your worst enemy's house with all the windows shut".

It's by Nigella right?

Well, after today I am ON IT. We'd had a nice day. Wife took my son to cricket training, had some lunch all went to the gym. Decided on a swift pint and follow the results in the pub before going home. Brighton two nil up! About to leave the pub.....

Then some ****ing scroat in a Suzuki Swift decided to lose control of his car and somehow do this to mine as it was parked outside the boozer. It's almost impossible to drive that quickly on that bit of road and it's not on a bend.

Took out the Mazda next to it too. Two little kids had been getting out of it five minutes earlier.

Fortunately he was insured and it's fleet insurance, his boss turned up and it'll all be sorted. More fortunately nobody got hurt.

It's just a car, I know. But **** **** ****! I love my car.

So I'm drinking.

Thanks Albion for making today brilliant nonetheless and my son for keeping me updated on the score as I was dealing with the police etc.

The driver was taken away btw, didn't seem pissed but reckon he might have been stoned. Made me think about those kids killed the other day. Could have been the same.

More beer.

Nothing yet. Won't be long though.

I wish...been on 8 Tramadol a day for nearly 2 weeks: means no alcohol whatsoever

The combination is alright actually.

As you said, the only saving Grace is no one got hurt. That street doesn't look very wide at all , idiot must have been going at some speed to take out the Mazda and cause that amount of damage to yours . Talk about being bought back down to earth after a great win .

Sadly not just Tramadol...

I was warned not to combine Tramadol and alcohol: have you tried it? I'm missing my G&T.

It's just off a main road but one that is generally full of traffic and even if not, nobody would drive quickly on. Three sets of traffic lights in about 200 mtrs etc. God knows how he did it!

Can't tell from the photo but the front of the Mazda was smashed into the wall of the pub and both cars were at about 45 degrees from where they were parked.

Wouldn't be surprised if there's more than the cosmetic damage. I am annoyed.

I smashed my heel to bits in a climbing accident a few years ago. Was prescribed a similar amount of Tramadol while in France, plus loads of other stuff. On the way back I drank copiously and was fine. I'm sure a G&T or two won't do any harm.
