Watney's Party Seven

[Pferdestarke]

Can you still get them? They were before my time but I would like to try one!

Get a can of John Smiths nasty.

Pour it into an old metal paint tin (washing optional). Stir with a stick until it goes flat. Leave for one hour. Drink.

And Party Four.





What's the similarity between Watneys and making love in a punt?

No.

Hasn't been made for well over 25 years now.

Weird, I searched for one of those for a 70's themed night. There were some available on eBay, obviously without beer. If you're interested because you want a keg at home, this site has pressurised and non-pressurised kegs. If it's Watney's beer you're after, 'fraid it looks like you're out of luck.

Ah, great link there Chim Girl - I'll have one of each please!

I only want a Watney's because Paul Calf mentions it in one of his stand-ups and I think it's hilarious.

Hmph, I was expecting proper beer not lager.

Why was it that a Party 7 had 6 pints and a Party 4 had 3? Or is that a myth I've remembered incorrectly?

I have a Party 7 instead of a 6 pack

So you're barrel chested?

[5potTurbo]

...and I have Watney's stamped across my front, yes.

Because you could never open the bd things so when you finally got it open you lost a pint with it spraying everywhere!

You've just reminded me of that aspect. The usual thing was to punch a few holes along one edge and then lift the massive thing to pour it into a glass at which point you'd realise that the holes at each edge were pouring beer onto the table.
