I forgot

Apologies for omitting this little gem.

Jez, the landlord is putting Scrumpy cider in. I've tried it in my youth, and it tended to get me in a mess. I think it might have been something to do with the quantity consumed, rather than the quality/strength.

I digress.

When told of the installation of the Scrumpy Trigger came out with the following:

"You lot don't need scrumpy, you're all stupid enough as it is."

Note the emphasis on 'you lot' !!

If 'you lot' do drink too much just try and make sure Trigger doesn't insist on taking you home and looking after you . . . .

Sablonneuse, perish the thought, I'd rather it be Keith. (joke).
I could cope with you, just!!

*LOL* Trigger, the teflon man :)

But seriously, the scrumpy is a devils tool! It makes you behave strange(r) and expose youself in public and the next morning hundreds of mallets are working their way around and inside your skull while you are desperately tryingn to recollet a comforting thought that you actually behaved yourself. This almost never is the case.
*deep voice of experience, sigh*

I've never had Scrumpy....something to try when I am in London, I think.

Does Trigger think he is the only sane one in the asylum? Is he:)

I got very drunk on local farm scrumpy when I was 14. One of my mates dumped me on my parents doorstep,rang the bell and ran off. Mum and Dad thought I was dead at first but luckily I was just unconscious! I didn't get a bollocking as Mum and Dad thought that just the shame of having them undress and wash me before putting me to bed (after calling the Doctor for advice on how to warm me up. I had been in a very muddy field in October and was very cold and wet!) would be enough to ensure that I never did it again. They were right. I can't even smell apple juice now without wanting to heave my guts up and I still feel mortified when I think of how they had to undress me!!! Oh the shame.

As I am a country lass born and bred -there's nothing like a drop of good scrumpy- haven't had any for years though!

Never heard of it--but it sounds dangerous!!

Unknown said...

KB, dead right!

Wendz, makes stella taste like shandy, this stuff is lethal!

Mum2, please!!

HC,I've been there, but with Rum and blackcurrant. I was 16, and threw my guts up. Never touched either again!!

Chris, the cloudy rogh stuff is dangerous.

Babs, you don't want this stuff, you could run a car on it!
