hmm not sure if i'll go for it, usually up for most thing but last time absinth was around it ended with a trip to A+E, my friend thought he was a fish or bird or what ever and dived off a wall face first into the pavement......... it was how ever extremely hilarious at the time

Long cold Ouzo & Sprite (or lemonade) yum

Just found out they sell Ouzo 12 at Asda, I'll still bring my fair share from Greece this summer though

Just the smell and I'm transported to a nice hot beach in Kos any evening in the summer. A three hour meal and the waft of hot spicy food and watching the lovely Greek women - heaven !

I think I have been there, didn't get round to that cocktail though Not impressed. They do have very nice cocktails though. I thought they were quite expensive but the fortune cookie night sounds like a winner.

I think that's an urban legend.
Ouzo and absinthe are claimed to crystallise in your stomach over night. Drinking water supposedly gets you pi**ed again.
I don't think that's true though

There's lots of utter b*llocks myths about that stuff and other strong spirits. All the fun ones are banned.
Go to Poland, find a small village, there will likely be a man in a shed who will sell you some vodka. You know exactly what you're getting, no "hallucinogenic", simply very smooth, stupidly strong alcohol!


My chillout drink is bitter and a fair amount of it.

This is very nice light red and definietly is worth chilling.
