h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I have to go to w*rk now (slinging beer btw ), but I want to see the results of this tasting in the morning, as well as full count of smileys

Sadly, my bedtime comes before the eighth drink, but I am placing my final bets as follows:

1) Black Sheep
2) Deuchars
3) Waggledance
4) Pedigree
5) Summer Lightning
6) Liberation
7) Badger
8) London Pride

OK, I admit, I achieved this with a certain amount of consultation with Odo, if no actual cheating. Certainly, my inferences about Pints 2,4,5 and 8 were right on the nose.

Deuchars and Pedigree should be easy to spot. As indeed should be Waggledance, since it's fizzy as Hell.
Black Sheep I drink a lot of, but I guess it's not that distinctive unless you know it well.

Does that mean that the London has gone again?

Not unless he took it to school with him.

Whoops, missed that post. I know he didn't leave the house with it this morning.

In that case it's a race to see who gets home first .

He will.

Ho hum, I guess I'd better dig out my driving license again. It's the only way I'll get served round here.

Err, why? You don't exactly look babyish...

I suppose I must do compared with the local chavs. Both the supermarkets and the local offie. have refused to serve me on several occasions.

It's easier just to take B out shopping now.

You mean you look like a normal person in their 20s rather than Stacey?

Define 'normal'...



B

Apparently, and I'm sure you'll all be proud, I got all eight right!

B

I'm impressed.

Thankyou for the most remarkable thread.

You think that's remarkable, you want to go rooting about in some of my old journal posts.

B

Live blu-tak tasting, anyone?

RF

Or describing your then girlfriend as a slapper on site, when she is also a researcher here.

That was all pre-arranged. And you still believe it.

B

Well done B - who knows what new depths you'll be dragging us to next.

It's tempted me to go out and try a similar thing, with some of the beers I taste failry infrequently. Be nice to know what I think of them when I don't know the brewery.
