It was my first experience of drinking whisky with dry ginger, and I liked it so much it is a good way of having a refreshing drink, getting a good alcohol buzz, and not feel as if I'm drinking an alcopop! It's probably something I'll do it again on a warm day with a cheap whisky, a chilled bottle of dry ginger and some ice cubes.

I do like dark rum with ginger ale.

Despite laughing earlier i agree with you that it makes a nice long summer drink that gives you a buzz.

I also enjoy whisky with ginger as long as the whisky in question is right for it.

You should try Whisky Mac, Nos. It's a drink I copiously enjoy around the festive period. You can either mix it yourself or buy it ready bottled. ALDI do a nice one.

I only bought the dry ginger because I was in Sainsbury's looking for something else and saw it on the way out. I realised I should have put the bottle in the fridge rather than the pantry to make the drink cooler. It is probably a good way of drinking a whisky I have bought and don't like enough to drink straight, or one which is cheap but pleasant enough to drink with ginger or Coke.

Sounds good, so I'll bear that in mind and have a look the next time I'm in Aldi.

The greasy strangler

Seemingly inspired (in part at least) by the Dada inspired ethos of Troma, Greasy stangler is a genuinely messed up abstract slice of schlock that seems deliberately intent on approaching its audience with fingernails scratching down a blackboard while flinging the occasional ripe ball of shit at its audience to inspire a sort of antagonistic divide between audience and film. Somehow though it works, just dont ask me how. The characters feel like deliberate grotesques, the soundtrack mixes electronica with the most annoying sound in the world ever. The screen is occasionally blanked out by one of the characters massive dick and the film seems to poke at various nasty ideas of disgust at the basic functions of the human body like a child poking a corpse with a stick. Its fruitless to really try and discuss frivolities like plot or character development when the film really does not seem to view these things as being anyway important or at least as secondary to mixing up a sensation of absolute disgust and horror and making it funny as hell. I personally loved every minute.

Was going with the "you cant polish a turd" here cough. It has some slight marks throughout it, which is nitpicking really considering.

Night Of Terror (1986)
If Andy Milligan and John Waters had a baby, and it grew up to direct Days Of Our Lives....it couldn't be much worse than this. Practically unwatchable, due to terrible transfer (VHS??) and the shocking colour scheme within the film. Recommended!!

I watched the Indicator Blu of Body Double last night. The film is still gloriously trashy and the quality is great. Really interested in the rest of their output now.
