Now here are some Vimto fact bombs I met most of u cats didn’t know:
In the Arabian Peninsula, Vimto has had over 80 years of dominance as the beverage of choice for the iftar or sunset feast during the Islamic holy fasting month of Ramadan. As of 2013, Aujan, the local bottler in Saudi Arabia, has been producing over 20 million bottles per year for the GCCmarket.[15] An article in The Sunday Timesmentioned some 15 million bottles were sold during the one-month season in 2007.
It’s nice to know that, angular and in many ways unpleasant a place as the holy kingdom is, there are some relatable things about them. eg they love Vimto.
And football. Saudis love football. Remember during the world cup when they beat argentina there was that video of the guys going absolutely nuts in their TV room when they scored. One guy just inexplicably lifted the door of its hinges and threw it into the yard.
this one was full of the springtime of life on an unseasonably bright day m88, kids gambolling around, me keeping an eye while reading the paper and quaffing my Vimto
barely an old dear in sight, not that I have anything against the old

Thank you for sharing and improving my Vimto knowledge base (last had a can circa 1992).
Garden Centres around here (just out of south west London) haven’t reached that level of enlightenment.

Excellent news. I got a hot vimto from the brew stand at a football match last winter, it was just the stuff on a cold day.

They declared a national holiday to celebrate beating Argentina as well!

Always find garden centre cafes depressing places, full of old dears waiting to die. However i have never visited one with unlimited Vimto on tap.

p.s. the most meritorious thing about the over celebrating saudis is they presumably weren’t even pissed
