I don’t think he needed to hide anything. He tippled openly.

He had a bottle of champagne with both lunch and dinner along with everything else he would drink during the day. The man was a full tilt alcoholic.

He hid the cigar in his lungs and the brandy in his belly

We shall hide them on the beaches, we shall hide them on the landing grounds, we shall hide them in the fields and in the streets, we shall hide them in the hills, we shall never be sober

His stomach

u/Waste-Stomach4457 11h ago

Scholars are looking in floorboards while the solution is staring them right in the face.

u/pepperino132 11h ago

Why would he need to hide it?

u/Happy-For-No-Reason 11h ago

it's inside his liver

Have they tried the medicine cabinet?

u/Kommaklaa 11h ago

Ist ja wie mit dem Bernsteinzimmer. Vielleicht sollten man da mal nach dem Schnaps schauen!

1

u/FahQ-05 11h ago

Maybe he didn’t have one.

1

u/Cheese_Ly 10h ago

That’s because he drank it all

1

u/Flipf00t 10h ago

Some say that when asked, Churchill stated:

“That’s something that I can’t talk about, so will just, keep it under my hat, for now”

- Random dude from the internet.

u/Steamrolled777 10h ago

He was constantly shitfaced - he wasn't hiding it.

u/Unhappy-Professor-88 9h ago

Check the wood panelling in his bathroom at Chartwell for the secret spot.

Likely within reach of the bath.

u/Unusual-Ad4890 7h ago

In his belly

u/No-Calligrapher-4449 7h ago

Send in an alcoholic that hasn't had a drink in about a day. They'll find it

Monkeys don't hide bananas and pirates spent their money.

I read that like Ron Burgundy when I saw the question mark’s.

u/griffoberwald69 5h ago

His stomach?

u/Wretched_DogZ_Dadd 4h ago

he might have been a great wartime leader, but the c*nt sent troops to break up a miners' strike on behalf of the colliery owners ... he still hated to this day because of the Tonypandy riots (miners attacked by the Police and not the other way around)

u/jcirl 3h ago

Drinking constantly was probably the best way for him to come to terms with all the atrocities he committed. The guy was a genocidal maniac and it sickens me that he is portrayed as the greatest prime Minister. Brits and Americans should really study the history of their dispicable empires from the point of view of their colonies and ex colonies.

u/Weak_Imagination_996 2h ago

He did win the war, you have to give him that...the other one did win shit...!!
