Because in London the place you buy beer is like a 2 mile walk from the place you buy liquor I will drown my sorrows with whatever they are selling closest to my hotel room. Maybe carlsbergs and old family guy episodes. Cuza hurkacs.

It's best not to start.
Really.
With the taste of beer I had, I thought it was awful so I won't be starting with that for sure. Once I get older maybe and glass of Wine with dinner will be fine but I am really not the party type girl.

No, we told you the law says that AN ADULT can order for you, and it has to be together with a meal. ;) Plus, we missed this order last night.
At noon, and after your daily training session, we will serve you this:

Highly refreshing, together with this:
fish-and-chips-blog-harringtons.jpg
Highly nutritious. But if you get your mom to come with you, then she can consider our fine list of ciders and wines ;)

Uhm, another early customer. At this hour of the morning, you need something for breakfast. But, as we understand your sorrows, we will give you a veggie/fruit cocktail. A Bloody Mary fits that description:

Of course, heavy on this:

My mom would always be with me and what if it was my 21 year old brother? Would that be ok? Not sure if it would be ok with my 19 year old brother. ;)

The Fish & Chips and Cider were great.

Tsangria for me, please. Tsurenko took me out against compatriot Kalinina. Got a little too cute, picking her because she's seeded. I once described Tsurenko in a story as so heavily taped that she looked "practically mummified from quad to calf," a line I really liked. So a toast to my muse and vanquisher.

We got a case of this:

Sure. Who did you lose to/with? So our sommelier can propose a proper poison drink.
