Babycham ?

[Sachs]

Do you like Babycham? It has some nice memories for me! The other day a neighbour brought me some over, she knows I like them, having one now! ( No cherry! ) ;0) Anyway, I was opening the cardboard packaging & I noticed 'Free Limited Edition 2010 glasses' Remember the distinctive glass? I've just been on their website & entered to win a couple of glasses! There's some interesting history too about their product!
Anyway, thought I'd share their competition with you! http://www.babycham.com/flash/welcome.html

OMG you've reminded me! When I was very young (hem, a couple of years ago); my mate and I used to have barley wine and babysham, yes mixed together in the same glass! It was lethal stuff.

[sanndwich]

not sure if drank it or not think have done so if it is orange and fizzy wine, its not very strong and tasted like lemonade doubt will be enetering a competition for it!

[craft1948]

my god maggot I'm surprised you're still alive...........barley wine is lethal on it's own.

[Sachs]

mad,
todays Babycham is 6% ?? Mixed with barley wine?? Are you mad woman? lol!

[madmaggot]

Craft, perhaps that's why I don't drink now lol. (Well, not a lot anyway).

[Sachs]

I love the shape of the glass! I was going to buy some on ebay, the originals!

[Sachs]

clippety! lol! Breakfast??? Hmmm! ;0)

[Sachs]

Let me tell you my memories of Babycham! The first nice man I went out with bought me Babycham in the 70s!

Many moons ago when I was 17 - my drink was Brandy & Babycham .

Love it Sachs! Even better with a brandy in it ;o)
I've got a glass from 1973

[Robinia]

[Sachs]

Hi Den,
& didn't we feel posh! ( cherry on a stick! ) ;0) x

[Sachs]

Robinia! I'm jealous! That glass would bring so many memories back!

I have got a Babycham clock which has a mirrored face. I saw one go on ebay recently for £50, but I wont sell it as I like it a lot - and have had it for over 20 years.

When I was 17 my mum (bless her) decided she'd sneak me into the local for an underage drink. We got in and she's saying ...Now would you like a sherry or maybe a Babycham.......Charlie behind the bar said.....Evening 'craft' pint of guinness is it?....mum was mortified.

[Sachs]

grasscarp,
really! But you can't put a drink in it! ;0) x

[Sachs]

lol craft!

[Robinia]

Certainly does Sachs, it was sneaked in to the hospital & given to me with a bottle of Babycham after the birth of my first baby. He'd been very ill after being born & that was the closest I got to champagne when he recovered :o)
I think I've got a Babycham beer mat somewhere too.

Hiya Sachs - hows you today ?


Back in the 70's when I was 17 - I liked Babycham, I think mainly because it tasted sweet and I always had 3 cherries. It is also very potent and gets you tiddly fairly quick - or is that just me (:0 D

Robina - I think Brandy & Babycham was the 'in' drink back in the 70's.
