Off Topic YOUR FAVOURITE GIN?

Nowt wrong with gin.

 

Worked for about a year in the Spirits industry. Fun times.

Hendricks for me too and no need for half an orchard in the glass. Just a bit of cucumber and plenty of ice. You’re better off paying a quid for a nicer tonic than a tenner for a nicer gin.

 

You doing a bottle a week, yeah?

 

I was expecting carnage from you, mate!

It's a pleasant surprise that you appreciate the pleasure to be had with a good drop of gin.

 

It’s Dutch.

 

What is?

 

Don’t drink a lot of spirits, in fact I’m not drinking anything at the moment.

Gin is an ok drink, but I’d rather have a beer or a good glass of vino.

 

Gin.

Originated in the Netherlands.

 

Okay. Didn't know that.

The art has pretty much been the preserve of us English for the last 400 years, of course.

 

Hogarth chronicled it’s rise in popularity...

 

Yes, he was quite scathing of the drunken working class.

Mind you, I'm like that, today.

I'd much rather spend my time around the aristocracy.

Better class of pisshead, see.

 

Correct Stan the OP is a ****ing
spastisch

 

To be honest I would rather just have the tonic water - the gin spoils it.

 

That probably explains the OP.

 

Large G&T with plenty of ice an’ slice please darling

London Dry Tanqueray Gin produced for the Spanish market, bit spicier than the stuff you get in the U.K. Tipped me over many an edge back in the day.

 

No, he just made a slight error.

 

Nothing quite so English as Dutch Gin. Superb.

 

I am pleased that there are a few connoisseurs among us.

I propose that we form a Gin Club.

 

Will it involve leather gimp suits? If so count me out Baldy.

 

I will not be joining any club that would have me as a member.

And certainly not a drinking club; I don’t do that any more. Someone else will have to have my share
