CRISIS POINT reached

Love the Jagerbomb, had 14 in one night (new years 05/06 in Newcastle)...was awake till 10 am, but **** me it was fun at the time.

[GIMH]

I like Jager & Red Bull but can't do the whole bomb fiasco as I am pretty sucky at downing drinks in one go

[Richard]

Downing drinks = biggest waste ever. Drinks are to be enjoyed IMO. Only ever do a semi-downing if the next pub is a-calling.

[GIMH]

What if you enjoy downing them?

[Richard]

Then you clearly don't enjoy drinking them that much.

Only times I've ever downed drinks is when I've found them so not-very-enjoyable-tasting that I've just wanted to get rid and get the next one.

Haha god, now when I'm having fun on a night out, perhaps after a few smokes, and we come to doing some shots, all I will be able to think about is Richard saying something along the lines of "now you shouldn't be doing that, should you?"

We drink Stroh Rum here which is 83 percent proof and is illegal in the European Union.. I wouldn't want to savour that as if it were a glass of Chateauneuf du Pape

[superkingdave]

Have had Stroh 80 in Austria tbph (which is 80% so160 proof ) think someone is telling you porkies, you can buy it online (£31 for 70Cl). They also make it in 40%, 54% and 60% versions.

Good way to warm up after a days skiing

Where did I mention shots? I'm talking about full, proper drinks. What are shots for if not downing?

I just wouldn't want to drink it TBH. 68% Absinthe is bad enough, and I have that watered down with... well, water.

Can occasionally add something to the night. Like last Friday, when we agreed to do so every time we heard a Michael Jackson song played. There were three in a row at one point. Challenging.

Yeah **** me that 80% stuff is killer. We've got a bottle at home, had it for years and not even close to finished.

Fair enough, but have you ever seen it in a bar in the UK?

[Richard]

Nah, fun =| downing. Fun is each to his own.

They actually sell it in the pub next to my old work, the Black Lion in Salford. Have seen it a few other places not too many.

[Richard]

Most pubs I've been to you're lucky if you get 68% Absinthe.
