I think I'm starting to like the sound of Oregon...  ;)

It was okay for the first couple of hours, after that the alcohol had killed any kind of sensible discussion and reasonable debate.


I'm out of touch with these things myself but I vaguely recall that this is like that first wall of exhaustion when running and you just have to keep pounding away until you catch your "second wind". Likewise, you just have to drink your way through the wall after which point the conversation won't be any more sensible, but you'll care a hell of a lot less :lol:

I'd drink beer with Dave, for sure.

Neither Franko nor Piru have displayed any knowledge or interest regarding beer, but I recall Dave being a home brewer and hence having a genuine interest in beer.

As for American beer, there's really a lot of great american beers to try out for those interested, just last night I had a Hop Juice from Left Coast, a Ten FIDY from Oskar Blues and lastly a Weizen Bam from Jolly Pumpkin. Craft beer FTW! :)

That was my vote too, a drink with Dave... :)

But it's not fair to say I don't have any knowledge of beer, It was one of me favourite things in life until I had to give it up many years ago for medical reasons... :(

My favourites were "Tartan Special" & "McEwans Export" and the odd "Southern Comfort" or two. Whisky I only like straight from the barrel (20 year old and 180 proof) a thimble full takes you to places you've never been before (any more than that and your dead)... :)

Oddly enough I don't actually miss it anymore as me meds seems to have a similar effect as booze so on a night out I just have a glass of cola and take an extra one of me tablets and it's party time... :)

OK, I figured that you might have a thing for beer as well, would totally make sense :)
Too bad you cannot enjoy beers anymore, there's so much going on right now :(

I choose Piru. But only if you can prove he has emotions :)
Even my cat doesn\'t like me.

Aghh, you want a commitment from him and not a one night stand?

Can you imagine sitting down with Dave and Franko with a big spliff?!

You think that is bad enough.....swap spliff for shrooms and we are all screwed!
