just picked up most of this lot today :)
starting with Midori + lemonade.

reccomendations for mixes / coctails welcome!
oh, and if anyone would care to chime in to my post a few up from this one about the champagne it would be very helpful (champagne is in the picture on the left)

Few Tiger beers here

Shame alcohol is so expensive here compared to everything else. Works out around £15 for 8 x 500ml cans :(

Aye, but 20 Reg Kingsize isn't nearly 7 quid I bet! (Pleased I quit!)

Got 135 bottles of San Miguel, 60 Becks and 5 x 5L draughtkegs of Heineken. Should make a nice aperitif :D

Happy New Year all, have a good one :)
 
What happened there Nelly did you drop your burger ? ;) Oh still on the MGD along with some pistachios .... mmmmmm :)

Oh RB if in any doubt about the champers then drop a splash of orange juice in it and give it to somebody you aint to fussed about ;) Not being an expert or even close I'd say taste it and if you swallow your lips its off :)

Tennent's, had a shot of vodka as my first drink and it came right back up. Stay away from Glasgow, my sick is probably going to be running down the streets for the first time in a long time. ;)

I've brought back to uni with me a bottle of 'specially selected by asda 2000 vintage champagne - brut' which on the bottle reads the usual storage information but also 'perfect now, but will keep for up to 12 months...'
What is that meant to mean? There is no use-by date, no date of when it was bottled etc etc.

You won't find a use by date on it or bottled date (usually). '2000 vintage' means that the grapes in it are from the year 2000 that was a declared vintage year. The 'keep for up to 12 months' means that it's best to drink it within the next 12 months. (the year 2000 vintage is just about at its best right now)

Generally, most of the wines sold in the supermarkets are sold as either ready to drink right now or will say on the back somewhere about when best to drink it. Cheap wines don't tend to bother.

Certainly won't die from it.

It has tiny little particles in the bottle which begin to float when distrubed. I'm guessing this is just cork?

Most probably just natural sediment, nothing to worry about.
