Stop this juice abuse ....

... since when did fruit juice come with ice?

This is something that's crept-in to the point that nearly everywhere serves fruit juice with chuffing ice in it. At Ruby Tuesday's in Cardiff yesterday and on my plane (SAS) today, still apple-juice with f'in loads of ice in it (ok, I'm trying to throttle back on the booze ....). I didn't ask for ice, you never gave me an option either. It's juice, it's nice chilled but not diluted 50% with hardened water. Yep, defraud the public with cheap ice instead of juice. G&T with ice, fair game, but not fruit juice please.

It's time a man made a stand.

I agree

and it's even worse when you order a spicy tomato juice and it comes with ice grrrrrrrr

Actually, I'm OK with a little Ice in spicy tomato juice, it's my exception to the rule
But only in the spicy stuff with Worcester et al, not the pure juice.

Next time they serve unwanted ice on the plane just leave.

It's ongoing, but I can't share more than that at the moment.

Can understand that. But I was meaning more in the way you expected it to be. The town, not the work now.

Well I've only been there once! For a project meeting with the architects at some grand hotel. We saw Naas town only as we drove back to Dublin Airport.
Unless I get the push I can see that I'll be going there often enough in the future ....

Meanwhile, back on topic ....

The Russians seem to get it right, last night's apple juice - no Ice, just had fresh Kiwi juice ... no Ice. The Vodka's bloody cold though

Yes indeedy 4F. Just off out to a place that brews it's own beer

Enjoy, my last taste of the local stuff was in Azerbaijan and I thought my throat was on fire....

A plane with home-brew beer would be a dream come true ... serving Indian Food would be the icing on the cake!

Well it's Valentines day here so the views are spectacular ... but all the decent restaurants are fully booked
Ended up at some cheap place with laminated picture menus, but the grub was OK and the staff fun, so we had a nice evening,
