Hedganian Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 I'm interested to try Maderia, but I don't want to buy a full bottle in case I don't like it. Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Maderia is a lot sharper. I suffer from indigestion - on daily PPI pills - and it cuts right through those and hurts... Crack on if your normal though 😂😂 Link to post Share on other sites

Tyh ere are far finer drinks around. Something I've taken a fancy to is kings ginger. Now that is delicious! Link to post Share on other sites

It's delicious. It also smacks you about a bit if you drink it in silly quantities...! Ginger (obviously), sweet, a nice depth without being complicated. It's good! Edit, it seems the price has gone up! You used to be able to get it for about £20 on amazon, which was the cheapest when shopping around... Link to post Share on other sites

sandstorm Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Any of you into Calvados? Maybe we should start a new thread for that, or rename this one to 'Ow My Liver!!!' To warn the ones on the wagon to stay off the thread? Not nice to put booze talk into thread people who have need to stay off the stuff might read for other comments.

amateurstuntman Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Maybe. I'll be sober 14 years in November, people talk about booze all the time. It's just a thing. Seems off topic enough. I did used to make a sort of Calvados in my mate's shed when I was 11. We called it sui-cider though. Link to post Share on other sites
Tw1tch Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 I'm currently sober until my Genetics appointment at the end of the month where I guess I finally take the next step on working out if the cysts the doctor saw were worth not drinking over again. My dad has polycystic kidney disease, has cut out alcohol and caffeine, if I've got PKD the doctor will recommend the same, I could lose the alcohol, (begrudgingly, not a big drinker but do enjoy scotch, mead and ales) but I think the caffeine might have to be a compromise.

Tinkerton Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 So the interview for the race car company I had scheduled for tomorrow has been cancelled due to, and I quote: " significant change in circumstance around the position, and as such the position has been filled and unfortunately not available any longer.

Tw1tch Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Unfortunately as firearms are so prevalent in the US that it makes these calls even more critical. Real shame that it cost someone their life. Won't pass judgement as wasn't there but very saddening. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 These things could be easily avoided by not breaking into cars, not running from police and not ignoring police commands. Link to post Share on other sites
Tw1tch Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Just read that on Sunday night some scumbags broke into a local fire station and stole emergency cutting equipment, this also had a knock on effect on scrambling the actual engines as well meaning there was a house fire that didn't receive response in time.

Hedganian Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 That is disgusting. When they find those responsible, they should be placed in a building with bricked-up windows and doors, then set on fire. Link to post Share on other sites

Got Wood? Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Sold one Glock, had some money to burn. “Damn, the WE 19x isn’t out until Feb/march.”“Let’s go with an Army G36 instead, just for a giggle/tidy up project”G36 shipped today. 19x released today. Dammit. Link to post Share on other sites
