    ^ There's a danger a man could drown before he got drunk at that strength.

    3.5%. Buying them was a gross error of judgement. I'm gonna have to drink the last two very fucking quickly.

    My local Gupta specialises in strong Polish beer for a quid a can. But alas, I was shopping in Waitrose today and literally bought the cheapest four-pack in the shop.

    Much obliged, Nigel. I'm generally very well illuminated and very slow. Drivers love my ass.

    The steak looks and sounds great but, WTF would you put it between a bun?

    Get some chips and peas with it!

    The first Thai food I've eaten in nearly six months comprised somtam and larb moo.

    After ordering the former to my exact spec (no sugar, no shrimp, no peanuts, easy on the fish sauce, hard on the garlic and lemon, and absolutely none of your putrid fucking fermented shite, please Somjit) it earned a Slap rating of 7.5/10. Apparently when I said the words 'no fucking sugar' they misinterpreted them to mean 'lots of fucking sugar'...




    The larb was over-seasoned, over-priced, fucking pig swill. But it was nonetheless a nice change of pace to brush up my on Thai with the sassy waitress who served me.

    No diet cokes were £1.55p each mate so made it £13 , and as I say I wasnt paying , if I was paying we would have been having the free water from the jugs you can help yourself to

    You must be very poor in your part of the world. We are hardly part of the affluent society down here but it costs us £ 5.99 for the all you can eat buffet served between 12 and 2 pm.

    We went there a couple of years ago when it first opened. Loads of Chinese running around, spotlessly clean and excellent food. So, we went back last week and found one surly Chinese girl, all the rest "given the push", scuffed walls and floors, and chipped plates, some of which were not particularly clean either.

    The food was of a high standard and I was enjoying it until the missus said they had been in trouble with local Public Health Inspector a few months ago. The noise was deafening because of some bloody Eastern Europeans who were having a good time thus ensuring that I wasn't. The place was otherwise filled with people from an office who were "celebrating" a birthday and a huge number of obese women who had badly behaved kids with them despite the fact that it is not the school holidays. All the women were ugly. One, which my wife insisted I should turn around and look at, was as near as any human being could possibly be to resembling a warthog. They were clearly not concerned about cost as Gaelic Coffees were gobbled swiftly.

    We last went out for a meal on New Year's Eve. We are not mean it's just that my wife is a great cook and we eat well at home. We will not be going out any time soon in this country.

    I can't help it and I must be a snob. I hate the type of person I ate my food with that day and I am glad that I see them infrequently.
