    What's lurking at the back of your drinks cabinet?

    It's that time of year again and Mrs Singh has despatched me to Tesco's tonight to replenish the drinks cabinet in preparation for the festive season.

    I'll come back with all sorts of stuff I would never dream of buying: Bols Advocat, Baileys, Quantreaux for instance.

    So I thought I'd go through the stocks before setting off and came across some wierd stuff from years ago: Stroh Run, Metaxa, Pernod and a bottle of homemade Sloe Gin that tastes like cough syrup.

    So what's lurking in your drinks cabinet that remains like an unwanted pet you can't bring yourself to throw off a motorway bridge?

    A bottle of stoorey Midoori, some blue curacao and some warninks that looks decidedly lumpy!

        A bottle of proper Absinthe the wife bought back from Prague a few years ago. I've no idea what to do with it so. apart from stitching a friend of mine up at a particularly boozy BBQ we had a couple of years ago. it's never been used.

          Bugger all, booze doesn't get the chance to lurk.

            Two bottles of Cachaça, some Ouzo, a Punt e Mes, a Poteen, Sloe Gin, a Luxardo Nero and a bottle of Gomme syrup.

              I have a few bottles of 1926 Macallan whisky.



              It's probably gone off so I'll use it for cooking.

                If unopened it won't go off.

                  And if I really had some I wouldn't be opening it.
