Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

Made my first trip back to Upton Park since May 2016 yesterday.
What a renovation The Boleyn has had. More importantly though the tap selection was probably the best from any pub I have been to in this country for ages. Had a Krombacher followed by a Litovel Premium. Very very good, highly recommend a visit.
They have done such a nice job of that pub. And agreed on the beer selection.
Picked up some of this on my way home tonight … thinking the claret and blue colours would bring me luck … it clearly didn’t work but the 7.8% induced wobbliness is a small consolation!!
The British Overseas Supermarket, (Iceland), selling 500ml x 24 Beck's for €12.50, they also had wife beater at €15, only a month left on the shelf life but it won't last that long in my house, yippee!
Whisky season started late this year, purchased a Tullibardine Sovereign in sainsburys £24 - down from £37, just had a couple of nips, very nice, mellow, recommend.

Found myself increasingly going into the likes of Lidl and Aldi and picking something random off the shelf without looking at it closely.
My rule of thumb is to find something you’ve never heard of and have a lucky dip.
Got a Aldi Chilean Estevez Shiraz not bad watching the Morrroco v France game going down nicely
