Whatcha drinking (2025)?

[badjak]

I'm having a can of gin & tonic
First time ever...
Not for the G&T, but for the can bit

Are you the only one in the pub?

No, I was with a mate of mine who's out of shot, then there's another side with people sitting out of view. It was only about 11.30am though.

I'm a Guinea pig atm for a guy that works with my wife
Hes doing home brew gin
My wife took him some empty ones from here. First bottle was a bit tart . Second bottle had a label macerated gin. He used real juniper berries. A lot better but not quite there yet.
Best thing is it's free.

Talking of homemade booze, has this been posted around here before?

So this one is not nice
Sickly sweet, even after adding lime juice

Well at least you gave it a go.
I'd be automatically suspicious of a can which includes the name Belgravia (one of the most exclusive areas of London) and then adds dark cherries to spoil the gin.

Lol, guessed what was coming and nearly did a spit take anyway

How was it?

The gin & tonic is fine.
Still prefer to mix my own though

BTW vernplum I started watching the IT crowd last week. Never seen it before and I was really taken aback when you were in an episode

And to swing it back round on topic Mr SSOAP and I have decided to share a bottle of white wine.
It’s been a tough few days so I think my excuse on the permission slip for drinking on a school night will fly

It's an absolutely brilliant show and I hope you get a lot of laughs out of it!

Richard Ayoade (I had to think about that a minute to remember his name).

A former colleague of mine swears my voice sounds exactly like his in this show, so you can imagine that's what I sound like.

I've made Limoncello for my Mother twice in the past... never got a taste because my Sister and her husband downed it all before anyone even got a sniff!
