Gin and tonic: the gentleman's drink

[tri boy]

My old (as in farts dust, old) uncle makes his own, and sells it to the old ducks at his local bowling club for cash, or wrinkly favours. (dirty ol bastard, I'm so proud of him).
Oh yeah, his GP reckons the gin has kept him alive the last dozen years. Has a couple with his breakfast. He also rates Bombay as a good drop, but swears his brew beats it. (I'm not a great fan of it, Gin is a hairdressers drink).

Wow who would have thought.... Jrandom with class..... Nothing better then a nice G&T, If you are a Rum drinker I go for appletons and coke,
We have been hitting the Malabu and juice a bit too much as well.
Yes mate you are right.... nothing better in my books then Bombay.
that was a good report. thanks.

I have witnessed Gays ordering it over the Bar...complete with Pineapple juice, is that the done thing???

I dunno; the last homosexual I bought a drink for had Malibu with their pineapple juice.

Everyone present at the time agreed that you can't get much gayer than that.

Malabu and juice

Jesus, great minds obviously think alike.

Don't forget your rainbow jumpsuit.

If you want to be a gin conassuer a bar is not the place to do it. Bartenders have to much other shit to bother about than whether your glass has exactly 5 and a half ice cubes in it before putting in the gin.

I can do a G&T in 15 seconds and its amazing.....if you want perfection a bar is not the place.

Well I wouldn't bloody know what you bent lefties drink, now would I??

Is that why you haven't fronted with the beer you owe me???!!

Anyway, the only time I've been near a Labour party office is to deface their billboards......a bit like someone who I can't name's daughter! (Good girl isn't she?)

Brother in Law has a still.
He got some of the flavourless 40% alc and soaked Crystalised Ginger in it for about 6 months.

Was like Ginger Beer on steroids - fantastic stuff on a sunny afternon!

To keep on topic, his Gin isn't bad either.

The quinine tree grows in the amazon forest and raw it tastes like a P-lab cook just popped his arse boil onto a piece of wood.

Schweppes make it much tastier in water.....

I'm not a huge fan of G&T's but jrandom is right....it's a bloody good drink on a nice sunny afternoon. Good alternative to a beer if you want something different.

Now malibu.....that even sounds gay...

Which is pretty much how most clear alcamahols are made. Unless some other olde fashioned method of manufacture is specified in detail on the label it's been delivered down a 4" pipeline and had artificial flavours added to suit.

A Polar bear walks into a bar and says to the bartender, "I'll have a gin............................................... .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .............................................. and tonic."


The bartender asks, "What's with the big pause?"




The bear says, "I dunno, I've always had them."

I'll have the Gin, but stuff tonic water, I'll have Vermouth thanks very much.

James Bond got it wrong twice - Gin, not Vodka and stirred, not shaken. The Martini, the only cocktail a man should ever be seen drinking.
