mead

whats the chances of getting 'pumpkin & ginger' to australia?

Mead was the first thing (according to my Mum) that I ever got tipsy on. I was only 3 years old and stole peoples drinks when they weren't looking. She said I wouldn't stop saying 'Hello' to everyone as if I'd never met them before.

My first experience was when I was 11 & had a toothache over a holiday w/end. My dad was forced to feed me Napoleon Brandy for 3 days...for medicinal purposes of course

LOL, I've heard you're meant to gargle with the Brandy/whiskey for toothache not swallow it, but God what a waste.

 

[bentalphanerd]

gargle would have been a waste...i went the whole timothy leary lol.

My mom used to rub blackberry brandy on my gums when i was teething, so i now know where my drinking habit came from. Oh, and this also did not help:

LOL, you got the taste for life. The man behind with the groovy hair looks like he had a good taste for it

[Omri]
