    Now that the CI site has finally given up the ghost I expect the Gullster to be heading for these shores.

    Is it finally an ex-website? Not checked for ages - used to be good, years ago.

    The Gull most welcome from me, though suspect he's already here.

    Been unable to access the site for the past 10 days - CI has finally done one, as they say.

    Myself, my good friend Geoffrey and the vicar once set about a bottle of Balvenie Doublewood. Don't remember too much apart from at some point we buried a deceased budgie. Would highly recommend the stuff at £39 a bottle.

    Limoncello tastes like washing up liquid, you ruined your Hull brambles.

    Should have gone for a bit of evap.

    You have a lot of experience of drinking washing up liquid?

    Only since I was told to lay off the alcohol, got to get your kicks somewhere.

    You could always try Brut.

    I did drink half a bottle of Brut once, testing to see if there was enough alcohol in it to get you pissed, must have been about 1978.

    I wouldn't bother booking 2 weeks on Capri if I were you then.


    It's all they sell...

    Limoncello liqueur. Limoncello prosecco. Limoncello fudge. Limoncello tea. Limoncello shampoo. Limoncello perfume.

    The list goes on.


    And you can't get a decent pint for love nor money.

    And it's really hilly.

    And it's full of tourists.




    Nice view from the top of the mountain mind.

    As I’m not supposed to drink alcohol, it’s probably the ideal place for me to book a two week holiday...

    Al contrario, cario mio.

    They were ****ing lovely, cold lemony ice cream and hot freshly picked local brambles. A delightful fusion of zesty ice cream and tart local berries, to create a fusion of warm fruity jus

    Cucina povera but with a nod towards local sensibilities.

    You'd pay £14 for that at 1884.

    Better off staying in Sorrento, day trips to Pompei, Capri, Erculaneo and Napoli itself. Occhio ai scugnizzi!
