Anybody remember drinking cider and green ginger in the jazz/folk club on Burnley rd? Never come across this drink anywhere else but it was the "in" drink up there in the 60s.:dogrun:

Never drunk it since but thought it was pretty good at the time. Another way of getting drunk quickly and cheaply was half a tartan bitter followed by a cherry b! Happy days!

Talking about concoctions, drinking in the Bay Horse in the sixties we had a drink called Tanglefoot (don't ask) Half of bitter half of larger topped up with a double whisky, Think if Alf Nobel hadn't already used the word dynamite, we might just have stolen it, that did put hairs on our chest, and that was only the lasses:D:D

Did the half Lager/half Bitter thing, but kept the whisky seperate, only we called it "Golden" asked for it down South & they reckoned it was a "Mickey Mouse" :o just an afterthought Lager & Cider "Snakebite" or "Brown Bitter" half Bitter/half Brown Ale.
