Either the Spevna has quaffed quite a few ciders this afternoon or he has been getting spelling/grammar tips from the Madmiral.
I wish I had been quaffing cider what with the day I've had.
you are a bourbon brawler!
Bourbon basher too . As of August I shall also be the bourbon battler (keep your eyes on the event sub forum).
If he has found some decent cider in Japan, I cant wait for his next gaming event. (Bourbon isn't really my thing).
I have actually found some decent enough South African cider. Not a bad tipple.

Picture yourself on a fair spring or summer festival day, drinking cider and rolling in hay with scrumpy barmaids. Welcome to the westcounty;

A good tipple to go with; http://www.somersetmade.co.uk/oldscrump ... owlers.php

Scrumpy means made from real apples with bits in the bottom. In terms of a scrumpy barmaid, well after 3 or 4 pints she's yours. :lol:

Rolling in hay sounds really… itchy.

Don't be daft laddy, get some cider down yer. I think it's pretty soft, people used to sleep in it.

People invented matresses for a reason. :D
Hay isn't so itchy and can be soft to lie on, but it can be a bit sharp at the ends. Plus rats and mice tend to find it nice for sleeping in too. :lol: It's better than lying on the floor though.
(One of my best mates growing up lived on a farm and I would hang out there once or twice a month, they always had loads of hay bales around the place).

Something tells me you are missing the romance in rolling with Martha the scrumpy barmaid on a moonlit night in the hay shed.

Sadly, there is a distinct lack of buxom scrumpy barmaids 'oop north.' Plenty of old geezers with flat caps who like whippet racing and collecting pigeons though. Aye, 'tis a bit grim oop north.

There is a certain romance to pigeon racing though if I recall from Geordie Racer that old school TV drama abut Newcastle.
