I left work at 6, and by a quarter to eight I had done all of my Christmas shopping.
Including a tequila(!) cream liquer which despite my initial reaction turns out to be bloody lovely, the nice man in the shop let me try it before I bought any.

Unfortunately it then took me until ten to get back to Streatham, but this is probably a good thing as otherwise I'd be bordering on Vipros levels of smug.

have you ever had Tequila Rose?
kinds of tastes like strawberry milkshake from what I remember

This is more like really good chocolate milkshake,
with the nice burn you get from tequila but somehow without any of the vile.

It is.
I'm going to be sorely tempted to go and get some for myself once the Christmas Skint has worn off.

When I was at university
the student bar did a double tequila and a pint of lager for £2.50. They had a funk 45s night every Thursday - i don't think I ever made a 9am Friday lecture in 3 years.

One unit I missed in its entirety was 'Indian Cinema'. What a load of total shit. 4hr black and white silent 'epics' involving casts of thousands running about everywhere. Total bollocks.

I did Tequila once in my first year
and once in my second year.
By volume it's no stronger than bourbon, which I will drink until the cows come home, but tequila is foul and dangerous.

it's very aggressive-making, from experience

tequila is essentially responsible for me going out with my ex
which ended up lasting 2.5 years

some mates and I were having a session at home. drank a bottle of wine, a few cans and was on the 4th slammer which went down the wrong pipe causing me to vomit in the garden.

My mates called me a pussy so to prove I wasn't I guzzled about a third of a bottle of bacardi.

then I woke up in bed with my female housemate. nothing had happened apparently, and when I kind of explained to her it was kind of a mistake she had a knowing smile and nodded along. Then we ended up going out for quite a long time.
