Here I sit, same as ever.
Flipped a coin, thought it clever.
ZIdansek tried, but, Udvardy broke.
Bookies favorite? What a load!
Bartender! Got anything Hungarian?

We can serve you this: One of Hungary's favorite drinks, Pálinka is a spirit native to Hungary and comes in different flavors including barack (apricot) and cseresznye (cherry). The best of them is the Hungarian alcohol drink szilva (plum) which comes from the Szatmár district.Oploskoffie wrote: ↑Mon Jun 27, 2022 7:42 pm Here I sit, same as ever.

So, which flavor do you fancy? Or, if we give you the five bottles, we can assure a most potent hangover that will make this defeat pale in comparison. So, just leave us your address and we can send you home later. Or not.

Re: 2022 Wimbledon. Ye Olde Axe and Block Pub (AKA The LL)
I'll start with just two bottles of Pálinka; cherry and, ehm, pear, please? I normally don't drink, so if (part of) two bottles doesn't make me throw up, I'll probably pass out before they're finished.

Ah, slowly, 25 33 poor souls walked in today here, in small groups. And some are still out there, hesitating on whether to come in or simply go to the Tower of London and serve as a test dummy for the instruments that name us.
Please, let us know how to cure what ails you. We will pour it down your throat, which, sorry to say this, is exposed at the moment...
Heck, I have to pour me a vesper

Re: 2022 Wimbledon. Ye Olde Axe and Block Pub (AKA The LL)
Tauson injured. I am out of the women's pool. I dropped by the store to pick up some Royal Dansk cookies for everyone yesterday, but I ate them all while watching a replay of Isner almost go out (you know how long Isner matches go at Wimbledon). Isner survived and Diego made it through for me today, so I went back and got a new tin of cookies for us. And I would like to try Amargo Obrero with some fizzy water to honor Diego, who kept the Axe Man at bay today!

Thank you very much. I fixed the tin. Those darn Brits, calling cookies biscuits and adding an R at the end of Serena - what will they think of next?

Could I have two Aperol Spritzes with some "Frech" orange slices, please? The second one is to throw at Camila Giorgi's face.

Two Aperol Spritzes on the way. Here is your first one:
We also have darts, if your frustration lingers a bit longer...
And, as we don't want the second one to go to waste, here you have a picture of Camila, with some visual assistance for your aim:We also have darts, if your frustration lingers a bit longer...

May I join you? Giorgi is usually a reliable pick for the early rounds at Wimbledon. I think I’ll have a limoncello to match the sour look on Giorgi’s face.

Limoncello, with a bit of twist: We are actually a bit of a friend with Camilla, so we will put it on her bill. Anyway, we know she will never pay, but just for the fun of it...

I have only had two drinks in my entire life and a few sips from my moms glasses before, but after my two Suicide Pool matches today I really need a drink. I was told since this Pub is in England it is ok for me to have wine or cider. So a hard cider for me to calm me down for the evening.
