    Hang on a sec - it's difficult to get more southern than you without
    getting your feet wet!
    It was cider for me. Still partial to it, too.

    Definitely ghost-written, then.

    Champ emerged from their own little world to say
    I drank cider in my mid teens. Bizarrely, once I moved 7 miles from
    Monmouth to Herefordshire [1] I began drinking dark mild. This
    corresponded with Dennis Healey reintroducing the Cider Tax so that its
    price exceeded cheaper beers.

    [1] the home of Westons, Symonds[2] & the makers of chemical fizz,
    Bulmers
    [2] survive in name only as Bulmers gobbled them up

    And I'km technically a Northerner.
    I've got back into cider recently. It used to make me throw up even
    smelling it but I've started to go more for scrumpies that actually
    taste of apples and find it quite passable. Very good in the summer.

    Fair play, tho, ghost writing autobiographies for semi-famous
    sportsmen and women can't be a very fulfilling job.

    Try to get hold of some Westons cider. You should certainly be able to buy
    it in Worcester. Their Stowford Press is one of my favourite summer
    tipples.

    my local Sainsburys stocks a fair range of ciders, including several
    from Westons.

    And it makes one's piss smell of apples, which I always find hilarious
    when I'm drunk on cider.

    Better than it smelling of vodka. I hate that.

    Yebbut for the price of three Babychams you can get the bitches to do
    the beating and you can carry on sitting at the bar enjoying the show
    and drinking the change.

    I used to drink exclusively mild in an attempt to make sure it
    continued to be made. Then I realised that one person in a pub full
    of non-mild drinkers aint gonna make much difference. I moved on to
    my Guiness period.

    And? Why let facts get in the way of a nice polite put down?
