Me? Amusing? You must have the wrong chap man.

I have got a slight injury that needs attending too though.

What sort of injury? If it's serious, I'll have to send you to Tim Walker. He's probably wearing the same outfit as me at the moment, so you'll hardly notice a difference.

I grew up in a high technology country. I won't play Cold War. There's CCTV in front of your house, isn't there?

What *is* Newcastle Brown? (I could google that of course, but I'm looking for anecdotal knowledge here.)

Beer, and one time sponsors of the glorious NUFC.

Still, don't mention it.

It's a brown ale! And it's brewed in Newcastle. Very nice too!

Actually, a few years ago I wrote a nice letter to the Newcastle Brown people and they kindly sent me a pair of Newcastle Brown novelty pants.

I had to drink Tannenzäpfle beer for football tonight. Blech. Someone's bought the wrong beer.

At least we won 2-0.

What's so tragic about that beer?

I got the drunkest I've ever been on that stuff.

Not that I know of. *check gnomes for secret cameras*

Why not? I quite like it. The first time I ever had it was in Las Vegas.

Not interesting, but true.

The problem with Newcastle Brown is that it's quite easy to glug down and it's 4.7%

At least you remember a) what it was that made you drunkest ever, and b) which of many sad drink-related accidents *was* your drunkest ever.

Did you ever get head in them.

Nothing. We lost tonight. The 'N' word is for Newcastle (not the beer/ale whatever).

If you like Newcastle Brown try some Adnams Broadside. Especially from a bottle.

That's true for almost every kind of beer.

That is very true.

Although maybe the TRUE drunkest night I've ever had has been forgotten...

Doubt it though.

I think I might. Oh look - the swelling seems to have miraculously gone down.

I don't mind Adnams. We get a lot of it round here on draught.
