Could have been slimelight. I've a suspicion we met via fluffymormegil.
Er, and you don't seem in any way scary. :)

Re:

[erming.livejournal.com]

Yup I think he introduced us.

[fluffymark]

Yep, but all thsoe slimelights back in 2000 get a bit hazy. ;)

Re:

[erming.livejournal.com]

Too true.

They vanished in a haze of K and redbull.

That's K as in the cider rather than anything dodgy (got told that a lot of people think K is ketamine).

[fluffymark]

My evil-cider of choice at the time was Strongbow. Which explains the stonking hangovers I had. Once I'd discovered the delights of chocolate covered coffee beans, all was OK. I consider them essential rations in surviving Slimelight nowadays. :)

Re:

[erming.livejournal.com]

Sounds interesting the chocolate covered coffee beans. Haven't tried them.

But Strongbow is kinda vile compared to Scrumpy Jack. It is the difference of artificial sweetners and sugar.

[fluffymark]

You should. You really should! :) Buy them at Whittards.

Don't get me started on ciders. I'm learning to appreciate proper cider. Glastonbury game me proper somerset cider, which was lovely (and very strong!) and I'm looking forward muchly to the Cider and Perry selection available at the Great British Beer Festival next month. :)

Re:

[erming.livejournal.com]

Well get to the beer festival early as they tend to run out of ciders and perries quite quickly :(

If you go to the Head of Steam at Euston station, they do Old Rosie on draft. This is 7.5% aklcohol, cloudy and 2.50 a pint. It tastes lovely. As the pub also does real Ales, try persuading Morph to go with you next time he is in London.

Wetherspoons do Westons and the Medium dry is quite nice and 6.5%. I think it varies but is about 2.30 a bottle.

But yup, there is a lot of difference between the mass produced ciders and proper cider.

[fluffymark]

Last year I didn't get there until the last day and there were plenty of yummy ciders and perries left. But maybe some of the better ones had gone, but I didn't notice.

I know all about the Head of Steam pub, and i'm pretty sure Morph does too. But yes, I must go there again soon. :)

Re:

[erming.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, I went a few years ago on the Sat and all the ciders and perries had sold out.

I ended up trying honey beer as I figured that had to be close to Mead, and found it disgusting, so I ended up on Orange juice at a beer festival.

I was distinctly unchuffed by that.

[fluffymark]

Oh yes, you don't do beer do you. How awful!

I'm likely to end up going to this years GBBF on the Wednesday (thats when fluffymormegil and damerell have said they'll be there). Maybe see you there?

Re:

[erming.livejournal.com]

Possibly. It sounds good and early. Will have to see when Sam can make it, as we hung out together at the cider stand at the London Drinker beer festival.
