She is a close relation of Gladly. My idea of a few pints might show not everyone's idea of what constitutes a few is the same.
I like paprika on eggs. Only spirit I have ice in is gin and tonic, every other one I drink straight. The thought of my late dad's expression if I ever was to put ice in dark rum is enough to stop that idea in its tracks.
My dad occasionally had ice with whisky, but only when I was older. He never drank whiskey, though I do as I am,partial to Jamesons and especially Bushmills. Of course when I was young you didn't have things like fridges with ice boxes, you had a cold box in the pantry so you couldn't have had ice anyway. In the early 60s only one in 8 houses had a fridge. I had left home before my parents had a fridge. And we were by means poorly off. How things have changed regarding what not so long ago were considered luxuries.
I should think so as well, sometimes rum & coke (the liquid kind) or rum & port, how much rum how much port, your choice. I used to have ice in brandy but that's gone by the wayside now.
We should start our own "clique" with a special handshake and secret passwords that no-one else is privy to. Something like "The tortoises head is touching cloth" or summat.
Only rum and coke if it is white rum. Dark rum should only be drunk on its own. In my opinion anyway.
No Kemps...no Whisky requires water not ice. It needs the water not the chilling EDIT - you’ve made me have one now. Just poured a large Jura Superstition and got a Cuban cigar out of the humidor to cut and have with it...you’re a bad influence!
Yeah they do say that. Never understood it myself, as I always thought ice was water. Chilli powder on fried or poached egg???
Sounds interesting, I'll give it a go. Someone mentioned Port&Rum, that sounds interesting too. Meat pie sandwiches as well...
