Am hooked on it!!!!!
I bought me a couple of bottles back from Maga!
and i have almost run out already!!!

Been looking at a UK Supplier (Unless anyone is going abroad and would get me a bottle or two #:-s )

But i come across this!!!! Wiiittttt Woooooo!!!
I think its the strongest thing i have seen around: 89.9%
Rocket Fuel!!!

I laugh they even offer a Complementary spoon for you to take it with!

If someone is going away, or has someone abroad that could ship me a few bottles i would happily pay over the odds for it, as Prices here are a killer

But the scary thing with drink like that is going blind!!

I know the first time i had some (80%)

Only problem is because your drinking such small qty the effect wears of quicker :)

I'm surprise that such kind of a strong drink can make you blind. Just take it easy mate, you don't want to ruin your eyes for online gaming just for the sake of drinking :)

I thought absinthe (full strength) had been banned from sale in this country.

No my bad typing made it look like that.

I usually use Coke or take JD straight.

Rum and Voka with some lemon juice is quite nice too come to think of it. :))
