robinturnerIn my favourite South Park episode (the rainforest one) I love the way Cartman takes a stick to any animal he encounters, shouting "Bad snake! Bad snake!" or "Bad three-toed sloth! Bad three-toed sloth!"
Well, I have to beat myself and say "Bad Solri! Bad Solri!" I promised myself that I would not drink today, since I'm just recovering from flu and my immune system doesn't want to be depressed by alcohol. But no, here I am, sipping the raki again. What is it about this drink? I like beer and wine, but I don't get the urge to drink them every night. It can't be the aniseed, because I've tried ouzo and pernod and been highly unimpressed (to mollify any Greeks reading this, I've heard that what is served as ouzo in Greek restaurants in England isn't real ouzo, so I shouldn't judge).
