DaisyHWanderer Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Picked up 2 pints of budvar from the pub by ours on the way back from my 6 mile walk earlier. Nice to have some draught beer at last although budvar wouldn’t be my usual tipple Quote

Marc505 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 I'm missing a proper pint too. Lockdown hangovers are shitter than normal ones, that is for sure. Quote
ErnestTurnip Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Driving home from picking up my essentials earlier and passed a pub that had a burger van round back and saw a couple of people sat down having a bottle. Might have been totally innocent but did have me wondering, and I've been feeling largely positive about how folk have been behaving during lockdown. Quote

I bought a "growler" from my local craft ale place Holds 3.5 pints but they only charge for 3 Definitely nicer and gets you more pissed than cans If you don't have a growler you can take empty plastic milk bottles I'd give the spread eagle a shout and rock up with a load of empties Quote

DaisyHWanderer Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Yeah they had brand new milk cartons, top was fully sealed once the top was on. Was nice to have some draught and give a local pub a bit of £. Quote

ErnestTurnip Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 No ale in so have been trying to join in reasonable debate in other threads. Bit worried I might end up in the Trump or Brexit threads so going to have to do a late Wednesday Tesco run and jump on with the insomniac piss cans later. Quote

If youre near COR Morrisons, theyre distancing well and range of beers rivals Tesco Even got some Jack Hammer Quote
ErnestTurnip Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 Aye I am so good shout but will have to check the shopping list because I can't do more than a basket at Morrisons for some reason. Quote
