I cant say what it tasted like. But definitely a strong aroma of room freshener. Just maybe a cheaper version than Glade. ---

Mentioned this thread to the folks. Have been palmed off with a half bottle of Lambs Navy Rum :lou_facepalm_2:and also a bottle of Santa Teresa Gran Reserva Ron Anejo - whatever the hell that is. Has anyone heard of it? Must have been sitting in their drink cabinet for about 20 years. Smacks of a duty free purchaseā€¦ ---

Nice one @goatboy . Will try it over the Xmas period, if my liver holds outā€¦ Does anyone have any uses for the Lambs Navy? Does it unblock drains or clean teaspoons? ---

Here you go Had to tweet the pics canā€™ copy them on here using done. Greyā€™s rum - has a kick but is rather like drinking a bowl of sugar that someone poured Bacardi into - functional but only with juice. Teeth would fall out if mixed with Cola. Didnā€™t have time to try the bar but just shocked to find here let alone in the shithole that is Sihanouk town these days. ( weā€™re just doing beach bungalow stuff luckily) > ---

I was in Sihanoukville twelve years ago and it was a shithole then. Went with a bunch of Scandinavians, planned on staying a week, lasted two days. Sad to hear nothing has changed, really would have thought they would have cleaned it up by now. We did discover a place that sold magic mushroom pizzas though, a big lad from Finland in our group had three slices and has never been the same since! ---

The town is a hole Nottarf but the collection of beach guys and bungalow complexes in Otres village & Otres 2 are heaven. Not seen that type of pizza but there were lots of Happy Pizza places in Siem apparently. All we can smell on the beach are herbs Who needs rum? ---
