Oh god, don't mention shandies. The first time I got drunk was aged 6, and they gave me a can of shandy at the cinema as they had run out of coke. I vomited in the aisle and missed the end of Watership Down. You will, however, be pleased to hear that this did not stop me developing a steady Top Deck habit in my teenage years.

Giving up on a drink just because you have got horribly drunk on it and thrown up is not the right way. You only push the boundaries of research forward by charging fast into the difficult areas repeatedly. It's called hard drinking for a reason. Otherwise you end up like Shenguin, drinking shandies during the terrible football. And no one wants that, not even Shenguin. I gave up on dark rum, after a night of Rum and Blacks with added traffic light lollipops

Morning all!
Today is my Friday. I was late to work because trains don't work in the heat.
I played more Football Manager last night. Clyde are now in League 1 and everyone is injured.

Last time I ordered cider was by mistake.
Having a quick pint before a gig, and was rushed by the sheer volume of people at the bar. The picture on the pump looked good, and lo and behold my mate and I ended up with some sort of 7% apple concoction.
Neither of us finished them. Pure varnish.

You can never fully trust a cider drinker, truly disgusting stuff.

Cider is not for me.
Saying that, I went to a craft cider place called Holm in Copenhagen and the cider was really good so it's probably the stuff you get here that I don't like.

Oh, and I'd drink Strongbow at T in the Park in my youth as it cost the same as Tennents but was 1% stronger.
*shudders*

Morning! Scubar, congrats! Cider, last consumed in my late teens. Horrible stuff. Games, WoW! Squires!

You’re all clearly drinking terrible cider. It should be either delicious and eminently drinkable or so colossaly rough that you end up pissed of the first taste and drunk enough to push on regardless. If youre on the latter, at time you inevitably chunder you should be sufficiently far gone not to notice. So basically not strongbow or Bullmers or anything with berries in it.
Janet’s Jungle Juice is a good beginner cider.

Used to drink Strongbow when I was 16 because it was cheap.
I'm 27 now and don't drink cider anymore because I'm not an absolute cretin.
You people. This place.

Black Rat cider is OK. The tramp near my bus stop is connoisseur of White Lightning.

Mulled cider. Two in the morning in a field at glastonbury when your pill is wearing off.

I don't understand the last Squires panel where he mentions the Colombians joy turning to dread. Surely they want to play us instead of Belgium?

Umm Higuita and Valderama (old Colombian players) are celebrating Colombia being on the easy side of the draw. I can see if you don't recognise them it might not work.
Neueur swearing in the background is ace.

I'm 27 now and don't drink cider anymore because I'm not an absolute cretin. Whilst I can believe that you are 27, I will need to see some pretty compelling evidence before I give any credence to the rest of the claim.

Also perhaps if you don't wish to win the gurning man competition... Were you the artisan bomb chap from the box? In other news the child has just thrown hamma beads all over the floor. Fucking everywhere. The urge to just hoover them up is strong.

Absolute cretin though, I'll try and plead my case.

It doesn't. That is the point. Even crude irony is difficult to explain.

Middle Farm near Lewes is quite the place for cider. Drink it occasionally, most people have a bad experience with it because they get hammered on it. It's similar to tequila in that regard.
The one thing I've found in beer festivals is that the ciders vary a great deal. It's worth trying to give them a go if you can.
