Don't you just hate it when the ice welds together and it won't fit in the bloody glass !

I've tried hacking at it with a spoon.... and when I smacked it against the wall i nearly broke my hand !

stupid ice..

I had a "rocket science" moment a year or so back related to ice. The chunk of ice was just a bit bigger than the glass I was trying to get it into. Thought I could squeeze it in.

Fookin' ice smashed the glass, then the glass slashed my hand a bit. Didn't deal with it until pouring myself another though

Been there ..done that... I did switch to plastic beakers for a while as they stretch more and allow you to push the ice in.. but I returned to glass ...

I have used a method where you place the offending ice in the glass as far as it will go, then pour beer over it into the glass to help the melting process... the problem with this is that whe the ice finally melts enough and drops fully into the glass, it displaces the beer.. I'vve grown tired of sucking the excess beer of the table

totster

if u have a tiled floor, dropping it from high above usually works, you do end up with slippy floor though so not completly perfect but you get small ice

Your doing it all wrong. You are getting your recepticles around the wrong way. Why dont you just pour the beer into the bag of ice and use a straw. Job done, so stop your whinging. It will be soon enough that you are back here and ice in your beer will be the least of your worries.

Gordon Burns used to piss me off on a nuclear scale for some reason. Think it was the amount of boredom in his voice.

Then he moved over to the Manchester Evening News.

Sorry, I mean't North West Tonight.

How can you talk about decorum? You wanto to put ICE in your beer, that is really civilised

And yes that is exactly what i do with my fanta.I dont drink coke

Tot's are you ######ing stupid? Just get a bigger glass - then you have more beverage!!

Buy an ice cube tray.

Purchase a bag of ice cubes.

Melt the ice cubes in the sun.

Drink beer while waiting for ice to melt.

Pour melted ice water into ice cube tray.

Place ice cube tray in fridge.

Drink more beer while waiting for water to freeze.

When you have your home-made ice cubes buy more beer.

Easy.

I can understand you full time inhabitants of blighty not putting ice in the beer.. but here we have to ... the beer starts boiling as soon as it leaves the fridge...

"Beer Cubes"

no water taste at the bottom of the glass.

patent pending

She forgot the ice... how dare she !

Never mind what the Glass says, just look at the solution to your problem @ the bottom of the glass:-

Yours truly,

Kan Win

The colonel is onto something there.

The problem with the ice is if it is too big, won't fit in your glass, too small and you have to use your teeth to strain it from the beer.

There is another solution that no-one appears to have considered. It has the benefits of being easy to understand (for our colonial cousins), biodegradable, ozone-friendly, kind to animals (again, for the colonials), cheap, renewable, non-radioactive and kills 99% of all known germs.

It goes like this (I have numbered the stages - colonials again):

1. Get a cold beer.

2. Drink the ######ing thing quickly enough for it not to get warm.

3. Get another beer.

(Repeat stages 1-3 until you can't do so any more).

HOW ######ING HARD IS THAT ???????????????????

Always buy the big ones on the beach - much as sadman described I went the drink quickly and more route to keep the beverage from going warm.
