Oh, my! Was it really off?

[Appleyard]

I'm afreaid to say I am triping under the infliuence of something or ither, which is troublesome. Anyway, I have been brewing "stuff" as well as anything e;lse, in 2L PET oottles on top of the range, where it's warm. When they are "done", I either drink them, or bottel them up for later/.

Anyway, I looked on the range to day and there aws a bolle markes with a cross, "X" on top., wt "O J and "1" in between the quadrants of the X, and remember in g that it was so,me apple/ginger mix, with a drop of orange squash in, and it wasn't fworkingng, I have frunk it, and some more stuff. I have on;lt just seem that it says "Off?" on the tissue paper covering the ;lid. Oh dear. It wasn't wonderful, but I darnk ir anyway, you have to do thers things, but was it "off", I do not think so.

What have you had in the drink like that you r'paps didn't ought ot have had?
I do hope I don't get the runs, I have tro go up a ladder tomorroew. ( do feel rather funny/. Dear God in heaven above, argh. \,

The answer is 17

I thought it was 42 but it's been a rough year and beggars can't be choosers so I'll take your 17 and drink to that.

3 x 17 = 41. Is that close enough?

 

[Ajhutch]

Hmmm

I feel like I'm missing out and need a recipe.

Apologies, I don't remember writing that. I don't know what the other stuff was, some other impulsive selection I guess, possibly also ginger and apple based. Can't see the empty bottles anywhere, but did wake up an hour ago next to a big mug of cold cocoa (?).

As the OP says, what have you had to drink similar that you perhaps didn't ought to have had? What happened?
