Undecided.

Although, if its just me and +1/2 and, unprompted, they decide to treat us to a lager +single (blended) whiskey/burbon as a chaser

Oh aye if its alongside the drink you want and a decent spirit then obviously grand. Just annoying when everyone’s on pints, you want another pint, and someone comes back with jagerbombs instead

Bit of a coincidence, given his name.

I’ve been to Dublin. The Guinness didn’t taste any better there than it does in London.

London’s a big place. It’s not just central London.

Do they serve calamari in garlic?

And…?

A proper London stout or porter is better (and more original).

And…?

That’s because Guinness is fucking shiiiiiiiite these days.

All I said was that i’m sure pubs in Ireland are good. I didn’t sign up for stout opinions!

Mackeson stout isn’t very nice IMHO

Dave from the pub in Minder.

Arundel’s Maple syrup, coffee and chocolate stout is very nice though.

And Wiper & True’s Milk Stout is one of my favourite beers going.

Best thing is sloping off to a pub on a rainy day and bagging a seat next to a cast iron radiator and the heating inside makes the windows steam up a bit and everyone who walks in’s soaked through and you’re there snug as a bug in a rug with your pint of ale and Dominican rum and a couple of bowls of snacks and reading your newspaper.

The best pub day I had was when it was heavy snow (2010 I think) and nobody could make it to work, so me and my brother went to the pub for lunch, then stayed in all day drinking pints. There was a funeral group in whose funeral had been cancelled because of the weather, so they basically were having a party and they gave us steak pie for dinner.

Later on we walked home in the middle of the road because the streets were deserted and I fell over (the way when your legs fly up like you’ve stepped on a cartoon banana peel) and couldn’t get up for about 10 minutes.

depends who i’m out with. hate doing rounds with a big group though, i end up trying to keep up and going beyond my usual limit and then spend the next day puking. also get a bit paranoid about not managing to get everyone a drink back in case everyone’s keeping score and think i’m a dickhead
