my great grandad loved it. Apparently it was a popular tipple in the trenches of the Somme when it could be aquired.

Yeah, we used to drink it in the trenches when we could get it. It was the half-time tipple when we played Jerry at football on Christmas Day.

I'm102 now. :-(

Grandad was gassed in the trenches WW1..his stomach ws always bad after.....his idea of a great day out was to go to the Lancs coast maybe Southport in the day..my dad said he loved his brandy and benny and would scoff the local seafood on the front.

I missed the gas, but I'm still carrying around a fragment of Turkish shell. It got me in the dardanelles. :-(
