I can state without fear of contradiction that if you have not tasted the entire Football Special product range then, you sir , have not lived.

Ah, lovely day. Had some of this:



And of course:

M & S bucks fizz? Its yummy.

I had some nice Italian Red.

I had a tumbler of this earlier on...........

Mild....but warmed the guts. I endorse.

How does it compare to, say, Jameson? Rougher, smoother?

Yes, my interest is also piqued.

I had a Jemmy and Seacht Suas earlier to re-enervate myself. First ever time for that combo for me - no soda in the house you see. It wasn't so bad.

I had a Jameson on the rocks last night, lovely stuff. There was some around today but I'm extremely tired so my stomach probably couldn't have handled a whiskey too well.

Very mild. Strangely welcoming non-vomit inducing attractive odour....i'd go for another

Dundalgan = Dundalk (minus all the caol vowels)?

But made in Kildare?

hmm...

Is there any Irish single malt whiskey? Do Bushmills do one?

I have had Middleton twice. It tastedlike crap to me. Would take a 12 yr old Bushmills or Jameson ahead of it every time.

Wouldn't know the difference between malt and single malt TBH.

Worst Irish whiskey I tasted was Tullamore Dew.

Yeah Bushmills do one. Locke's and Connemara are single malts as well. I'd go for locke's between those three.

Have to disagree with you about Midleton. I love the stuff.

My 82 year old uncle got a bottle of 20 year old black Bush after some neighbour died. He drank the lot in a couple of hours. Woke up the next morning like a youngster. Elixer qualities according to him

This as close to celebration as I'm likely to get. Anyone up for a drink?

Same - I might stick my head out the window around midnight, but that's probably the extent of it.

That would be a Wullie Turner

Anyone ever been in Scotland for the new year? It's supposed to be the real deal up there.

Rant: lousy dour bastards, typical of them to worship a clock. How very Protestant. They don't celebrate Christmas because it's too Catholic, talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. My granny told me about having fish and chips up there once for Christmas.

They did invent buckfast battered curlywurlys

Buckfast's from Devon, I've a (half-empty) bottle right before me. They did make it notorious though, along with deep-fried shite in general as you say.

My deer 'ould granny's Scottish, but God love us they exist to make everyone else look better. Even the English come off better.
