I'd rather have a small glass of good real ale than a big tankard of big brewery horsep*ss...!

Pierre de la Mer ~ sometimes slightly worried but never panicking ~ Posted Feb 21, 2006

Kes Posted Feb 21, 2006

Did anyone mention sugar? No. are you sure you can hear ok?

Pierre de la Mer ~ sometimes slightly worried but never panicking ~ Posted Feb 22, 2006
wha'?
aguardente (or aguardiente) is brandy made on sugarcanes 
the taste is sometimes questionable, but it is hard on the hearing

Shirps Posted Feb 22, 2006
Speaking through a megaphone : I shall look into the process of how to do that - 
pondering on how to get hold of some sugarcane & ensure a hearing aid is handy too

*Whacks dsl and Pierce for good measure.* 
Happy Birthday Kes! 
*Puts on lots of red lipstick so when Pierce drinks all that sugarcane juice he'll think SHE is the fairest in the pub. After second thoughts, she puts on lots of very blue eye shadow too.*
