Hey do they sell Mountain Dew in England yet?
Mrs Manc needs to know, she ain't going if they don't.
She has to drink HOT tea, Tizer and Irn Bru.....oh and blackcurrent...and Lilt...

...when in Rome....
and FIZZY lemonade...
you forgot Tango,

and following on from a patriotic thread had the best commercial ever with that guy strutting along the white cliffs of Dover challenging Europe to a fight and had the war planes over head.
..and all she can eat is Chip Butties...

I never really liked that stuff but the commercials were excellent.

Ray Gardener's finest moment. That ad ("Tango Blackcurrant St. George") won several awards but it's virtually impossible to find online anywhere.

The company who did the many special effects for it hinted they "might" get it online eventually as they were bombarded with requests but so far, it has not come to pass.

Would probably do great trade here now - British Ray wanting to kick Sebastian the French kid's head in.......
She has to drink about 20 pints and then sing "Here we go, here we go, here we go!" Even though the destination is only the chip/kebab shop.
Yes, they do sell Mountain Dew. But why would anyone want to buy it - it's just fluorescent sugar water. It's best to stick with wine...
Is Mrs. Manc also aware that in Europe in restaurants soft drinks often come with no ice or two thimble-sized ice cubes that quickly melt? Room temperature water too!

Doesn't bother me but it drives my girlfriend insane! I went on many a mission in London and Paris to find COLD Diet-Coke.
And don't forget that Once she finishes a glass she has to buy another one.
I have told her that we kinda don't go for the enamel stripping liquid nitrogen drinks.

as for buying refills, well I had forgotten about that too.

rip off britain.
I actually prefer the pop in England because you get a decent amount of pop - not a glassful of ice. Now, beer, that HAS TO be warm.

Actually I take that back, the American p!sswater they call beer is only consumable when it is cold...

I hear you on that one grin
After a couple of weeks of drinking room temperature Bud, this beer (if it can be called that) has reached new levels of vileness mad

Sam Adams is good tho'
