Title: Caravanning etiquette
Post by: moses on July 23, 2014, 08:47:20 pm

Another of my quests for teh assembled VSC wisdom.
So have treated Zipporah and the kids to a week in the caravan on the east coast. Next door caravan is a family from Sweden. Kids all playing together, mum really good looking and friendly.

So Swedish dad says to me as we watch the kids playing; "I see you like beer, do you want to try one of mine?" Me, "Yes that would be great". Thinking holiday drinking buddy with potential mutual cultural education.
He proceeds to give me an alcohol free Tubourg lager. Obviously wrong on a number of levels but we have got a few more days left of the holiday, so take it and thanked him

So do I:
a) give him some scrumpy back and see if I can get him really p*ssed
b) smash up his volvo ( I am assuming it is his in the car park)
c) find the vilest beer possible to return the favour, thinking Barnsley bitter (cos I am)
d) say three hail mary's for my thoughts about his wife and take it as pennance

How do I do a VSC poll again?

A) - Get him utterly w**kered on the cheapest, shittest white Cider you can find while telling him it's a traditional British drink. Better yet, do they sell Buckfast there?  :evil:

Give him the scrumpy and then encourage him to smash up his Volvo then sit back and watch the fireworks when his mrs goes apeshit at the destroyed motor while he is nursing a bad head

I like Barnsley Bitter, well the new version from the Acorn brewery. Am I wrong in that?

I remember going to watch Real Madrid a few years back and thinking how great it was they let you drink beer at your seat. Got back to my seat, had a sip of said beer, thought 'this doesn't taste right...'. Looked down and it was Mahou Sin. In other words, 0% alcohol.

Not impressed!

River Don, you are correct Acorn Beer is great, I really like the Yorkhire Pride and Blonde. Had some Barnsley bitter in a can in the past, it was rank and had the signpost words of Barnsley and bitter on it so I should have known.

Update: He started a can of Scrumpy and then left it half finished to go to the toilet and never returned.
Consdiering moving to option b though it may be the scrumpy talking.

I'd go for A get him smashed on scrumpy but give his Missis a trial pint  and hope you have got to say 20 hail mary's
