Friday Afternoon Drinks. The earlier version of or prelude to FND. After WAD the best of all AD's. Probably the only AD that can be enjoyed on an almost weekly basis. Biggest downside to FAD: because a lot of people only work parttime on Friday, there's a lot of civil servant or banker wankers in the pub. But on the upside, these people generally need to be home by 5, so when FND starts, they're all gone and you're nicely liquored up. MAD, TAD and ThAD usually can't hold a candle to FAD.
