Sorry mate, just seeing this now. I hope you haven’t dropped dead in the interim.

I think you need to watch this video, as a matter of critical importance.

@briantinnion how do you think the new sugar tax will affect the consumption of soft drinks in Ireland?

Are you worried about the impact on vending machines?

can anyone answer my question about mountain dew, its a race day essential for me on marathon day, is it available in Dublin? I will be only bringing hand luggage

It’s available but not readily. You wouldn’t find it in a huge amount of shops.

Newcastlewest’s premier office supplies company also sells it on bulk, quite bizarrely

it should illegal really, the sugar content is disgusting, its rocket fuel though

Yes. Most definitely. I’m wondering if I’ll be able to afford to bribe a local politician for dodgy planning permission to build yet another wing onto J-Manor.

Good tack

@briantinnion can I get your thoughts on

  • the new can shapes for Coke etc.
  • the below soft drink

Massive fan of the new Coke cans. I used to seek the tall thin cans out previously.

I haven’t had the above but I can see the craft soda revolution has started. I’ll be shown to be on right side of history on this one.

Have a friend who has started a company selling these brewed soft drinks. I will have to get a couple of samples to try.

Yes, it was lovely. First time I had it.

That’s great stuff.

A little treat on a Monday. Because I’m worth it.

Where are they on sale?

Dunnes sell the Bundaberg ginger beer and root beer, think it’s 5:49 for 4 bottles, the ginger beer is lovely, root beer is an acquired taste.

Ginger beer on ice is a lovely drink, particularly in summer but it’s a nice drink anytime
