I held out for long enough. But I just couldn't hold out any more. I haven't had one of these bleeders since God knows when*. But today it was hot and humid as if it was August and after being in hand to hand combat with Mother Nature for about two hours I needed a decent drink. The locals say it should be 80% Martini Rosso and 20% gin, but I prefer it 50/50, being a shameless piss artist. With lots of ice it's not quite as refreshing, rock steady and cleansing as a Gin and Tonic but it doesn't half hit the spot. Thoroughly recommended.

garden's looking very tidy - you have been busy
Ever noticed how the auto focus goes for the bit in the middle? Just had big G&Ts here. It's Friday.
Did you use that tape measure to calibrate the drinks? Us commoners use the old finger method: second finger depth of gin and little finger depth of Martini
Everything is looking good...I may indulge a tad myself.
The season demands a tipple!
I got plastered in Eastbourne on Friday night. I sang 'For Once In My Life' full tilt at the karaoke machine. Shocking hangover.
