Last orders
Friday, May 28th, 2010
Things got rather morose down the pub the other night as conversation turned to the last drink you would choose before you died.
Friend 1: ‘a pint of Badger’s Hopping Hare’
Friend 2: ‘oh, it’s got to be a plain old pint of London Pride. Or maybe a whiskey…’
Me: ‘a martini, definitely’
Friend 3: Some kind of lager, probably Carlsberg’
Friend 1: ‘Are you kidding?!’
Friend 3: ‘Well, I like lager… but really, if I was about to die I’d try heroin.’
Friend 2: ‘Yeah, why not? I mean it’s got to be good.’
Me: ‘And that’s probably one of the most practical times to give it a go.’
Friend 1: ‘Hmmm… a pint or a wrap? It’s a tough one…’
So what do you think? What would be your last drink? Or are you going to go for the heroin?
