Ive stopped saying 'ice hockey' now as people look at me like I am mental

Haha, god bless you nasher x

That picture above is so true

I have lost count the amount of times i have had to say a sentence twice for an American to understand me and slow myself down whilst saying it.

Will be good to catch up when i see you in 2 weeks xx

Oh and i bring my own tea bags when i travel to the States :-

My ATF introduced us during a double, and I saw her subsequently many times.  She was stunningly beautiful, and her London colloquialisms were...the best term I can think of was charming.  We always spent at least twenty minutes talking before the fun began, and I always knew what she meant, but the terminology was so...different, yet cute.  I would see her in a heartbeat if that is ever possible again...

As far as afternoon tea goes...if you like green tea, we're on the same page.  As for G&T, that's T&T...the gin has to be Tanqueray.

SEEEEEE!!!!

Now you all made me want a G&T! Bang goes my juice detox

The Rangpur is now firmly on my gin tasting list! Sounds amazing.

Bring an industrial sized box of tea please Shaunna, we get through it in this house like water.

A T&T diet sounds like an genius plan . Crushed ice, lime, bingo ! On a boat?! Stick a fork in me, I am done...

but I do love a proper pint of 'bitters'.

 Thank goodness we colonists finally started brewing "Craft Beers". The watery weasel piss sold for decades by Anheuser-Busch, Miller Brewing, Coors and others was/is absolute 'rubbish'. Guinness, Boddingtons, Newcastle, numerous red ales and various Black & Tan mixes are mothers milk to my palate.  Be you a 'mate' 'chap' or simply a 'bloke'; pull up a stool, order some 'chips' and lets get 'pissed'.
