Now about that drink. I have my usual - Irn Bru and absinthe. It makes me hate the English, but forget why.

Thanks - I think :)

Yeah I already figured the absinthe (a no brainer really) and had a bottle sent to your and Bert's table.
Irn  Bru I'm a little vague on - still learning "English" and all - is that like what we call in this neck of the woods Nehi Orange?

Irn Bru is a Scottish delicacy.   


I am very proud of the fact that Scotland is the only country in the world in which cola is not the most favourite soft drink.

Irn Bru, a girder in a cleaning tank!
Not a source of iron!

Great stuff, pity you can't get it on draught down here!

Made in Scotland, from giiiirders!

I rather like Irn-Bru, it's tangy.

Not seen that second ad before FSN, cracking stuff.

Irn-Bru, as much of an institution as a bottle of Bucky!
Well that went down like a lead baboon......

Loved the video
Can't get my head around why it has a calming effect - but if it does - it does.
Handed a matching test on national traditions - carbonated orange soft drink and Scotland would have been a last pick! :)
Apparently you CAN buy it in the States - my wife wants to know if I spill it on the rug will it leave a stain?
