ASDA fruit juice

The 1 litre cartons of ASDA fruit juice, 4 for £3.

Apple juice, very, very good, although it kept me up all night cos I was buzzing from it, forget red bull this stuffs better.

orange and mango juice. Ok not really to my taste, quite viscous consistency, however pretty good.

grapefruit juice. Now I am not sure how its meant to tast but I and the little amoutn I made my sister drink that either grapefruits are evil and made from dead body juice or its off or something. Don't bother with it.

Orange juice, just like orange you get in the pub but with no vodka etc added.

pick of the crop has to be the apple juice

Aye the Apple is by far the safest option but the OJ is safe and I think the 4 citrus version is really nice to. I must be the only person that buys grapefruit juice cos I think it's nice.

just opened the orange juice with juicy bits.

The first thing I thought of with the texture of it was sour milk!

Which puts me off as they aren't chunky bits, they are fine small bits. Tastes ok though

It was quickly mentioned.

I can imagine the version you gave (i.e the truth ) which was me telling you to honk the horn and then me waving at them

I bet you left out the comments you made and so on though!

Had to start the diesel yesterday to move it, a few churns and it fired right up, its a good engine in that van, only 77k miles to!
