I may be sloshed later today

July 23rd, 2006 by Bill

What is wrong with me? My moaning and complaining about the heat are clearly the result of failed memory.

Surely everyone knows it is the season of the gin & tonic?

It is my favourite cocktail - and it’s been a while since I’ve had one. And it’s also the only cocktail worthy of these perdition-like meteorological conditions. Whenever I sip a G&T I always image I’m Graham Greene (the writer, not the actor - though I like them both).

So later today I’ll be picking up the Bombay Sapphire and tonic. I already have the limes.

Two asides:

1) Do you think they’ll ever change the name of Bombay Sapphire to Mumbai Sapphire?

2) The gin & tonic, like all great cocktails, is all about the lime.

    You do know that Bombay Sapphire and tonic - with extra lime - is my all-time favorite. Now I want one dammit.
