Whenever my family went on holiday to Dartmoor when I was little, parents would always take us to church at Buckfast Abbey if we were there on a Sunday.

Always thought it was just for the nice architecture and the gardens, but maybe they had another motive....

This is super old but seems to be making the rounds again, received it on WhatsApp twice in the past few days - what causes something to come back like that?

It's about a month until the 12th, perhaps the orangemen are trying to drive the price down.

"Managed to make it through a couple of small glasses"

Egads! Why?

Because after a bottle of that stuff, you feel like a fucking god!

It's good to have a professional confirming the experience we know and love

Wreck the hoose juice! Yes! Fucking devils ribena!

The mistake was not paring it with MDMA.

Sounds like less boozy Jägermeister (also made by monks) with added caffeine.

Had always assumed it would be fizzy.
