I remember a friend getting into drinking a mixture of Guinness and Bitter - called it black and tan. In the local Irish run pub he was told in no uncertain terms that it might be best if he didn't use that terminology.

I used to drink that as a youth, now I'm older and I know a bit more of the world there's no way I'd feel comfortable ordering it by that name.

I used to quite like that as a hair of the dog back in the day.and you drink that out of choice?
seems odder than a black and tan, another beer cocktail from a bygone era
Although in my local, it was a real Pale Ale mixed with a Stout.

I had a quick sherbert after the match, not in the mood to be fair, smiley drinkers looking like they were enjoying themselves, bah humbug.

Yes, I did in a way. I didn't wear a tie or a cravat and I also went 'sockless'!

I'm hammered. I've been on San Miguel pints and rum chasers in the local pub.

A cheap knock-off copy of Lacoste? Shame on you, Accy. I expected better, despite your apparent liking for fake Rolex watches!Light weight sage wool jacket, tan and beige 1960's acrylic 'breathable' polo type shirt, off white linen summer trousers, Lecoste 'burnt orange'/ tan summer shoes, cream fedora with a sky blue and red feather, to show both the colours of the two teams taking part...you get the picture!!

I think they're genuine Lacoste, 🤔 but if they're not it doesn't really matter as I paid a mere £1.50 for them from a charity shop. 🧐

Looks good to me, Accy, reckon you got a bargain there.
I'll reserve judgement on the rest of the outfit though.

Anyway, you certainly can tell when there's been a lot of football fans in the pub, like there were last night for the Champions League Final! How they manage to miss the porcelain is beyond me!! 🧐
