Make sure that Zeit stays off the floor this time or some punter will spill his lager all over it.

(See how I used English slang there? I worked at a pub in Oxford so I'm hip to your lingo)

Gentlemen,

I bet there are very few people in Oxford who would admit to eating (and, even more unlikely, enjoying) jellied eels Mr. Green

Dammit, I live and work in central London and I only know one person who likes to eat them on a regular basis - OK, he has them for breakfast, but he's weird Shocked

Now, if you're going to bash warm beer, remember that, the more you chill something, the less taste it has . . . I have drunk warm lager (not intentionally, believe me) and it's even more disgusting than the chilled variety Very Happy

Anyway, we'll see what beers we get on Friday evening in Hampshire - if it's proper beer and not lager, past experience suggests it'll be more enjoyable for me than for those (supposedly) hard-drinking Northerners Razz

Oh I know about that whole North-South thing too. A fellow bartender from Yorkshire told me ths one:

So a guy walks into a pub and asks the bartender for a half pint of rat.

The bartender looks at him and asks, "I'm sorry. A half pint of..."

The guy says " Half pint of rat please."

Bartender asks, "A half pint of rat? You mean a rat as in a rodent?"

The guy says "Yes, that's it. A half pint please."

So the bartender goes down into the basement. He moves some boxes around here and there, and finally scares out a rat. He wacks the rat with abroom handle and sets about stuffing it into the half pint mug. He keeps pushing it down but he can't get the whole rat in the mug. So, he takes the rat, chops it in half, puts half in the mug, and returns to the bar upstairs.

He proudly puts down the mug in front of the customer and says, "There you are! A half pint of rat!"

The man looks at the mug and calmly states, "Oh I can't drink that."

The bartender isn't very happy about this. "Now look here. I spent 10 minutes down in the basement chasing that rat adn you tell me you can't drink it?"

The guy says "Well of course not. It hasn't got a head on it."

I'm with you on the jellied eel thing though, those just look so wrong.
