Seems fairly self-explanatory to me. Surely it's referring to the white froth at the top of a glass of shandy and making a comparison with spunk (i.e. you're shaking your hand to produce your own "froth"). The reason it's shandy and not say, beer or any other frothy drink is because hand rhymes with shand(y).

No one calls the froth on shandy “shandy”, though. It’s froth.

Have you ever heard a conversation that went:

“What’s that white stuff on top of your drink?”

“Shandy.”

“Yeah, I know you’re drinking shandy, but what’s the white stuff on top of the shandy?”

“Shandy.”

Well, have you? Have you ever heard that? You haven’t. You haven’t heard that. Know why you haven’t heard it? Because no one calls the froth on shandy “shandy”.

Well, it's not like I invented the phrase. Besides, I think that it's more that one is producing a liquid. The white froth is likely a big part of it though. To be honest, I think you're reading far too much into it. You'll be questioning the internal logic of "spanking the monkey" and "bashing the bishop" next. They're all just silly ways of avoiding having to say the blunt and rather dour "masturbating to achieve ejaculation".

The guy behind Cryer was particular about the position he did it in.

Thought that was The Old Ron on that telly for a minute.

Wow according to Oxford Dictionaries, pervy sci-fi writer Brian Aldiss was the first person to use the expression "hand shandy". All bets are off as to its origin, it's probably aliens whose cum tastes like sweet Carling.

It's from the autobiographical novel A Soldier Erect, based on his WW2 service in Burma. Quite possibly a phrase coined by one of his army pals.

Reckon we can add ‘Doing a Ron, Ron Ron’ to the long list of euphemisms for having a palm shandy.

Don’t seem to be many for the Laydeez though. Best I ever heard was ‘doing the Kit-Kat shuffle’ adding this was available with two fingers or four.

Borlotti frotti?

I've never heard "palm shandy" (as opposed to "hand shandy"), sounds like a kitsch Seventies cocktail served in a tiki mug.

Asti spumante is surely the most ejaculatory-sounding drink of all.

I mean, look at it

If so, why not just let me be sick in my fucking mouth?

Or in someone else's mouth for that matter; good money in that.

I'm afraid I simply don't trust someone who can come up with an anagram that good.

Burn him!

All Italian sparkling wines are spumante by the time I've etc...

I thought hand shandy was a reference to it being a ‘watered down’ version of full sex with a woman, in the same way that shandy is a weaker version of beer.

Paul Calf · « **Reply #40 on:** February 19, 2021, 08:45:39 AM »

Yeah, me too. I thought it was a reference to going home alone from the pub/club for a Pot Noodle and a wank rather than doing it on a lady like all the Finchies would be.

shandy is frothy, and you froth things up by shaking them vigorously

Lager is frothy and you don't call it a hand-lager.

Lisa Jesusandmarychain · « **Reply #43 on:** February 19, 2021, 09:02:50 AM »

Readers of a certain age will observe that you also don't call it a hand- Cresta.

If you lie on your arm until it goes numb before having a Pot Noodle it feels like someone else is eating it.

Always though Cresta Bear was one cool dude... turns out he’s an onanist?

BTW seems the bear was based on Jack Nicholson’s character in Easy Rider at least according to the comments on this old advert... https://youtu.be/thxAqdxGSPU

Not sure I wanna risk calling Jack a tosser.

BTW(2) loving the change of Avatar Voltan, now Slade are the very definition of cool.
