@briantinnion or anyone else on the forum - does anyone know where I could get sodastream gas bottles refilled?

@Big_Dan_Campbell Argos do them. Check the stock before you head out there

I think that is to buy replacement bottles - I want to get the bottles I have refilled if possible

You can swap the bottles with them. I exchanged two empties there some weeks ago. For full transparency I went to Argos in Nutgrove.

How does it work? Do i walk in with my empty bottles and order two new ones and get a rebate or what is the process?

Drinking way too much of this, i’ve no doubt it’s bad for me like everything else I like in life.

The elderflower and apple wan is unreal

Yeah it’s very nice too.

Quite the establishment. The authentic Argos experience where you’re made feel apologetic for making the cunts get your order.

Yeah you just select the refill and as part of the payment you had over your empties.

I had a quick look there - looks like they don’t have the refills in stock right now.

Sam McCauley worth a try also - believe they’re a stockist.

@briantinnion does anyone drink Pepsi these days?

I like a Pepsi Max

I don’t drink full sugar soft drinks any more and rarely have the “zero” versions but I always preferred Pepsi to Coke.

Only time I find a can of it in my hand is when it’s the only drink offered with a chicken fillet roll meal deal.

Some people do but you’d want your head examined to be drinking soda regularly these days.

I allow myself a San Pellegrino Limonata on warm days and when I’m on holiday but otherwise stick to sparkling water from my sodastream. Carbon footprint you see.

I think we need a new guru

You can get fizzy Lipton ice tea here in Holland, it’s top class

Also Bundaberg do a wide range of soft drinks here, not just the (absolutely outstanding) ginger beer

Bundaberg are the king of soft drinks

There is nothing quite like an ice cold Fanta orange with pucks of ice

This statement is correct. Nothing else recreates that chemical fake orange taste. There is a much better ‘real’ orange flavour of club orange in my opinion.
