| I like the letter though wp, it must've been an almighty session, they guy can't remember where it was! I can imgine filming for gladiator. Reed, Crowe, Harris. Geez, none of those guys liked a drink, no wonder Oliver died during the filming, his poor liver must've just walked out on him.. I like this fact about him "Reed and 36 rugby players once drank 60 gallons of beer, 32 bottles of Scotch, 17 bottles of gin, four crates of wine and one bottle of Babycham - all in one evening"... Sounds like fun... |

Tho' thinking about it, Oliver Reed wasn't really a cricketer who could drink.
More of a drinker who could play cricket |

well oliver reed is very dead, so in keeping with the english tradition of selecting people passed their use by date. Anyway, isn't it supposed to be cricketers who can drink?
------------------
Oliver Reed was a very keen cricketer, as this letter to The Independent will testify.
-----------------------
From Mr George "Gubby" Trotter OBE
Sir, In the many and fitting tributes to the late Oliver Reed, I have seen no mention of his true and abiding love of the game of cricket, and I do feel that this should be placed on record before it is too late.
I got to know Oliver Reed very well during a three-day drinking spree on an island in the Mediterranean. I cannot now be sure which year it was, or indeed which island it was - Malta, perhaps, or maybe Corsica - but I well remember that towards the end of the second day Oliver (as I had then come to call him) suddenly cried out: "This is ace cricketing weather! Who's for a game back at my place?"
Very soon we had sorted out two sides, one of which was to be called the English Drinking XI and the other the Maltese Navy XI, although they were in fact 11 sundry Maltese fishermen who seemed keen enough on the idea. Or were they Corsicans? No, I think they were Maltese...
As soon as we had mustered 22 players, we turned to Oliver and said: "We're ready for a game back at your place now. Incidentally, where is your place, old man?"
"Somewhere in the wilds of the Home Counties," said Reed, and laughed so hard that he nearly choked to death. But it was typical of the man to buy everyone a round of drinks and promised them all a game of cricket if they ever came to Hertfordshire. Or was it Berkshire?
Yours etc |

| Gazza in for the Poms. He was drinking so much he now looks like a 60 year-old at the age of 42. George Best could have appeard in an ad for a healthfarm compared to Paul Gascoigne. |

"That is because all the poms hide under the table in the muck and filth on the floor there, it makes them feel at home!"
Hey Neville - did you think that one up all by yourself with your one brain cell?
Is in breeding a problem where you're from?

O.K, an idea.
An Ashes Legends Pub crawl. The best drinkers the English have produced over the years up against our best - should make for great entertainment. |

| I thought the old Melbourne Bitter is similar to Leffe Bruin. Pretty good too and I prefer it over a bog-standard lager any day. |

Leffe Trippel is good, but I prefer Leffe Radieuse, Kwak or even Delirium. They're all in the 8 - 9 % bracket and actually have a distinctive taste (unlike most beers these days...)
I found a pub in Clerkenwell, "The Dovetail", they specialise in continental beers and have over 100 Belgian, Dutch and German Beers in stock. They food is pretty good too, but you really need to book a table first. |
