Can't imagine red wine and coke together, but if Jacco likes it then it must be good.

Is it a Norwegian thing?
EDIT: Just googled, oh it's more of a Spanish/Baque/South African thang!

What exactly is the consistency of this red wine and coke that you always go on about?! Is it half and half? More red wine than coke? More coke than red wine? I kind of want to try it...
Yes, I always mix 50/50. You can buy the cheapest red wine there is

Ah, thanks. Aren't you the cutest?

It is actually kinda popular in Southern Europe, and bit similar to Sangria.
Also bit similar to what we in Norway call "gløgg", which is more or less the same as German Glühwein...

Red wine and coke sounds really weird but I'll give it a go sometime...

My usual drink is JD and coke. Or beer. Peroni is great stuff.

Can't drink Malibu at all, it's way too sweet for me.

1. Please do

3. It is. That's why I love it

I have been known to to through half a lemon vodka bottle In a night (only one of the small ones mind!)

Peroni is rather good, and am partial to a bit of Stella now and again. Saying that, I'm not much a fan of the new Stella cider....or Cidre, but love Kopparberg - even though their new summer fruits drink tastes exactly like Ribena.

I enjoy Kopperberg more than the Stella cider but it's still pretty decent considering. Liking the sound of the apple cider with cinnamon though

Carlsberg zest for me - or a nice long G & T

Can't abide either pernod (18th birthday dramaz) or port (Oslo 2010 dramaz) pretty much everything else is fair game

Should be sleeping between night shifts, but the F1 is too good

I've hardly had any drink since I got drunk at an office a Christmas dinner in 2009. I've joined this rank of teetotallers..

I'm in the 'thanks but no thanks' zone regarding alcohol after being physically sick due to overindulging on Thurs/Fri. Let's see how long that lasts.

When I do drink I stick with Peroni, Disaronno or white wine by the bottle rather than by the glass.

Haven't got on with vodka since my 21st. I do like JD and coke from time to time.

How good was the usually boring European Grand Prix?

Loved Maldonaldo shunting Lewis off the track Really happy for Schumacher and Kimi too who is my second favourite driver of all time after Mika Hakkinen

Jesus I can't wait to go back to sheffield! Never thought I'd be wishing my Uni summer hols off but I miss it way much! Also, by september we can start picking every 3 minute song that's released and speculate as to whether it's a potential eurovish song

I am a bit of a man, will happily sit and watch football all day with a few beers. It's funny when I go out with my OH cos he drinks either peach schnapps or Malibu, and whenever people bring our drinks to us they always mix them up.

Wasn't it just!

My friend brought back cinnamon vodka from Poland once (at least I think it was cinnamon) and you drink it with apple juice. Gorgeous stuff.

We're all a bunch of dipsos in here!

I think there's something wrong with me but I'm kinda rooting for England tonight. I like that there's not much expectation around them this year and because of that they seem to be quite relaxed and have a good attitude and team spirit. They were definitely lucky against Ukraine but still, they did what they had to do.

Don't think they deserve to make the final though.

From a selfish point of view, I'm working tonight so want England to go through, and then get knocked out in the semi's when I'm on rest days

For the first time in a long time I'm actually looking forward to the football tonight. Hoping England can just edge Italy out and possibly, but probably not, beat Germany in the semi.

A lot of people who I follow on twitter who are Irish/N.Irish/Scottish/Welsh are actually supporting England too, which I'm pleasantly surprised by.
