More bars should offer decent non alcoholic drinks. Syrup coke and manky old juice just don't cut it, so for now mines a Guinness.
Very true. Back in Oz land you can get a lemon(ade), lime and (agostura) bitters just about anywwhere, probably one of the best drinks ever if you were not drinking at the pub, or were the skipper. That's designated driver for a car load of boozy mates, often the pub you want to go to is miles from home, and there's no bus or train. Some places used to have wrist bands for the skipper and then you'd get free non alcoholic drinks all night.
I asked for a lemon, lime & bitters here once and got a rather perplexed response, along the lines of, "we don't do those here lad, you can have coke and like it"
