The best drink ever…
and it’s non-alcoholic!!

Well, OK, it’s a little alcoholic (but no more than 0.5% states the label), but my word, it’s the nicest drink you’re ever likely to taste. That is., if you like cola. Which, I think everyone does.
Chris introduced me to the stuff way back quite a few years ago. he had been to Newcastle, and picked some bottles up. He said it was gorgeous. And, who am I to resist? He gave me a bottle to try, and the taste stayed with me for ever. It is wallet-blisteringly expensive stuff. I think, at the time, it was something like 90p a bottle. For 275ml, that’s around £3 a litre.
On Monday, I was in Asda, and happened to come across a shelf of the stuff. Again, it was something like 90p for a bottle, but they were 3 for £2. Could I treat myself? I stared, longingly at the shelf, full of pristine, glass bottles. I tried to pull myself away from them, but the trolley didn’t move. Well, except for the one wheel which was spinning loosely, failing to make contact with the floor. I resisted no more, and did indeed tempt myself.
I bought the three bottles. I still have two left. I think I’ll keep them in there for some type of momentously special occasion or achievement. Such as reopening the Scribcam.
Yes, you might have noticed, that for the paste few days, I actually HAVE had the webcam on. And, I have been allowing it to take photos of my desperately greasy face, and my ever receeding hairline. I don’t know why I bothered to put it back on to be perfectly honest, but I thought it would make a nice change. You’ll find the link either at the top of the page, or you can visit http://www.scribcam.co.uk/ and stare at the last 10 images.
I might change that so you can see more pictures instead of just 10, but considering I forgot to switch it off the other night AGAIN, that might not be such a good idea.

I’ll have to look out for that stuff, I did see it once in Aada but didn;t pick any up. Being something of a cola fan I need to give it a taste test.
