867796 2010-03-17 07:36:00 I reckon we Kiwis identify with the Irish. Take this song (The Sea around Us) from the Dubliners:

They say that the lakes of Killarney are fair
That no stream like the Liffey can ever compare,
If it's water you want, you'll find nothing more rare
Than the stuff they make down by the ocean.

chorus:
The sea, oh the sea is the gradh geal mo croide*
Long may it stay between England and me
It's a sure guarantee that some hour we'll be free
Oh, thank God we're surrounded by water.

* "great joy of my heart"

That must be a new and much improved lemonade, that I have yet to encounter. Until it becomes readily available, I may just continue diluting beer exclusively with saliva, and by drinking reasonably swiftly even that can be minimised. :thumbs:

867803 2010-03-18 00:22:00 I like beer after a days work. I don't drink to get pissed. Ice Road Trucker (15659)
867804 2010-03-18 00:25:00 Well, there's "Shame Of The South" aka Harley's, but most refuse to class it as beer.

Harley's beer was the dregs from a sewerage pond!
You had to taste it to believe it. Had to put a shot of squash or raspberry in each glass. Ask any of the older Nelsonians! :lol:
