Title: Surviving The Ashes...From Your Sofa
Post by: justnotcricket86 on November 23, 2010, 11:49:51 AM
Right then lads, to anyone who was worrying about their tactics over the next 2.5 months, problem solved. Apparently all we have to do is eat eggs and take vitamins...and skive off work

Love how they have taken this so seriously. And rightly so.

Bring on the convicts :)

Tommo mate, my missus was that impressed with your offer she's even offered to do your ironing for 3 months and send the nipper to borstal until March

She's not sure on Bud 66, is chilled Cristal OK? any particular year?

The cristal shall be required for the retaining, not just easy drinking ;) 1990 is my personal fav though, £14.5000 though? This is a very polite offer i must add

Glad we can be of service fella ;)

Impressed you went for the 1990. The 1991 is absolute toilet

1990 was there strongest and most mature one. Nice celebratory tipple. Could get the famous grouse in?

Well I am currently trialling my homemade mulled wine, just to get into the festive spirit. I wouldn't worry about the 1990 Cristal mate, its on tap round our gaff

Am quite partial to a Baileys and Cherryade...lovely drop of stuff

Got time for that. I am always reliable for a drop of snakey, or a few bombs
