It's a lovely, sunny summer day.

A great day to enjoy a crisp, cool beer in the sun. Or in my case, a chilled cider.



I tried some of this - the idea of a cider part- brewed from berries seemed like it could have some interesting and complex tastes. The packaging makes it seems somewhat sophisticated.

Mother fucker is just cider and black in a can. i.e. cider and Ribena


I haven't drunk this poo poo since I was 17 and wearing black jeans and a metallica t-shirt.

I fell into this trap when people started chatting about it. It was disappointing at best. I quite like the Stella cidres though, the pear one is so refreshing.

Can confirm Old Mout is good poo poo, berries is win. The kiwi and lime one is delicious but is brutally harsh on my stomach.

And there's a reason people refer to it as 'Wrongbow'

Oh and in Ireland they have one called Orchard Thieves, it is the single best cider I've had, that poo poo was so good. So of course I look for it in England and find it and buy a load. It's different. And rank. The Irish bottled stuff is just bang on, the English stuff complete trash.

Speaking of temperature - gently caress me the U.K. is hot right now. I’ve gone camping in wales for a couple of days and this is just unnatural.

Remember last year when it hit 35? I was at a wedding, fully suited and booted. Luckily it was at the seaside so once the ceremony was done I wandered into the sea.

If you enjoy such clothing items may I suggest taking a look at prettysnake.com ? I went on a hen holiday with friends because I am apparently one of the girls. I celebrated this event by buying a pair of these speedos

https://prettysnake.com/collections/mens/products/kitty-swim-brief *link contains dudes in speedos strangely enough*

A large German shotputter type lady approached me while I was sunbathing and said "I like your svimtrunks. Zey are ver cute!" it was mildly terrifying. For anyone not wanting to click the link they're pink, have flowers all over them as well as strategically placed kittens and far better than you imagine them to be.

Lemme tell you about the time I got a UTI and a prostate infection from holding my piss. When the bladder gets overfull it backs up anywhere in the network it can go. Bad times.

My dad's bladder has essentially given up because he ignored the need to piss and it doesn't squeeze anymore. Please piss more.

FISH CHAT

So I got my son a 20 gallon fish tank and we have been putting native plants and fish in it and it's p cool.

Watching fish swim about is super chill. My dad used to have a tropical tank and my favourite fish were the tiny catfish, they're rummage around the substrate at the bottom like little dogs. We had some upside down ones too, they'd swim about upside down, sleep upside down under leaves and only flip right side up to feed. Photos of the tank, yo.

I just didn't want to believe anyone would go to the effort of putting it on there or indeed listening to it afterwards. It must sound fuzzy as all gently caress, like you're playing a vinyl on one of those cheap stack system from the 80s with a rounded needle through a pair of paper cone speakers with no tweeter and the mids turned all the way up.

At least she'll go in comfort, surrounded by people she loves, listening to music she loves.

gently caress. Dude I can't imagine being faced with this. Being comfortable surrounded by loved ones is probably the best way to go out though.

I used to buy a lot of trainers, I've whittled my collection down to like 18 pairs now. Thing is I'd never pay full price for them, that poo poo is for idiots. One pair of super limited edition Reeboks I've got cost me a grand total of $50, they're a run of 56 pairs and since the Alien Stomper re-release a couple of years ago have been going up in price steadily. There's a brand new pair on ebay right now for $7500. :v:
