Lord's is the only ground that allows members to bring in their own alcohol.

At least they’re not throwing their empties out onto the field. That’d leave a mark!

That they are. Emptied a couple Millenium eve, mixed them 50/50 with Guinness Extra Stout—tasty! IIRC, that was created to darken champagne back when Queen Victoria died.

Ah, thank you! Been so long, I forgot the drink’s name! Gotta do it again very soon, just because.
