Be Excellent To Each Other

I have started drinking a lot of fizzy water., after i have lost the taste for diet drinks.

I can get 2 litre bottles from Aldi for 17p. It just seems a lot of waste as I have recycle 4 bottles a week.

Has any one got a soda stream, and how much does it work out to produce the fizzy water?

I don't really see what's wrong with the Aldi option as you're recycling the bottles anyway.

Apple Tango is most expensive, but I prefer Orange Tango anyway.

Some options there. I'd just keep buying the stuff from Aldi.

Anyone seen that Soda Stream advert with Amy from Big Bang and Hodor? I caught it today and it was the weirdest thing I've seen in a while. Especially since I thought the actress who plays Amy looked hot.

I literally just have, because it's on their website: http://www.sodastream.co.uk/

I was trying to make the man maths work. cheers

Really surprised to see that they still make these, had one as a kid a good 30 years ago

Wasn't great tasting if I remember

Has it improved?

I mean, having a device in your house is obviously more convenient - until you want to whack a couple of bottles into the fridge.

That advert is pretty silly. Isn't the syrup sold in plastic bottles? And they've proper sexed up Blossom, haven't they?

WHAT

Yep

That is extreme!!

I only want it for water, possibly gravy

Do you not have a tap?

Yeah, just don't like what you want. Easy.

yes but if yours has fizzy water, i am moving to the Black Country

Steradent.

It's pronounced Wat-a over here. You'll have to get used to that first.

The way people here pronounce 'tooth' is all wrong.

I used to play rugby in Dudley, I got used to the accent

No. The rest of the country is wrong.

Ain't that the truh-th.

Because they don't have them.

I think you'll find it's because "we aye got none"

Ashes actually did a review of loads of the Soda Stream flavours. It's on his YouTube channel.

They're/He's not pronouncing it 'tuth' are/is they/he?

Now you sound like them too

I pronounce it 'tewth' like a normal.

Your whole sentence read aloud sounded like a Black Country dialect

I'm surprised that no one else has had questions.

I Googled 'soda stream gravy' this afternoon, if that counts?

Soda steam gravy new band name, called it

I do, but look where that got me earlier.

Go on...

I think he wants to know what fizzy gravy and Assassin's Creed have in common.

The way they pronounce nearly everything is wrong.

Is it 'nearloi uverythoing'?

If I hear "it's feckin boogered" shouted across the office too many more times I may lose the will to live.

OK, I'll bite: fizzy gravy? What in the hell?

I like Bovril at rugby matches, always wondered if it would be good fizzy..

what

Yup.

You're like the savoury ying to Rev Stu's demented sugary yang.

I'm keen to hear the answer - is fizzy Bovril good? Is it even possible? It's a real cliffhanger if ever I saw one.

(I'm guessing that no, it's not good)

I remember us getting a Soda Stream in the 1980's. We were quite surprised as my parents were quite strict with us over sweets and sugar.

So of course we went nuts and then I remember the syrup never really getting replaced regularly aside from Christmas. Then after a few years the soda stream was put in the garage.

Reckon my Dad must have liked the idea of the gadget then realised it wasn't a good fit with the household sugar rules!

Not bought one yet...

This clip, from 1:45 to 3:20, sums soda streams up for me. We knew someone who had one when we were kids but never had one ourselves.
