Sanpellegrino Limonata. Contains 12% pure lemon juice and no artificial flavourings or preservatives. Very refreshing. Available locally at Kitcheners, cold from the fridge. Top it up with gin if you are feeling naughty.

The much maligned, scorned and sniped at fruit tea. Because I don't like the taste of ordinary tea and this was free

I've had gin with that stuff before and it was very nice indeed.

I'm still on rose wine - don't know which one and can't be bothered to go look.
I've done too much running around in the heat today to move now that I've sat down.

See, what did I tell you? It tastes so bloody awful they have to give the stuff away. C'mon R, come join the coffee drinkers.
You know it makes sense.

I don't like hot drinks! And I've never managed a cup of coffee; it tastes like sweeties

I just got some interesting tea through the post - not tried it yet, was finishing off the Koko Kanu from Saturday tonight

Initially read about the owner/company in "Red" Magazine.

Will let you know what I think!

It was nice today, but not hot as you'd expect in July

As above. And it was very hot over in Fife today. I had a nice lie down on both Aberdour beach and the one at Burntisland in between the running about.

Sorry to bore you Rathbone

But I am drinking Herbes de Mallorca liqueur. It was given to my sister's mother in law who in turn gave it to them, my sister thought it was an olive oil

and had it in the kitchen beside the oils. Realising it was alcohol she gave it to us

. I had expected it to taste of herbs but it does in fact taste like pernod. Come over Bob

Sanpellegrino Aranciata, the thinking man's Fanta - and much cheaper in Waitrose it has to be said.

Oh that's unfair! I'm in my jimjams waiting for MOTD. Can you send it round it in a taxi?

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 05 Aug 2007, 22:24

well, you have to remain dry if you are are in court in the morning

ps its not as strong as your usual tipple

only 25% proof.

Puerto bella · Post by **Puerto bella** » 06 Aug 2007, 22:09

Have tried the Herbes many years ago, there is a lemon one from near Valencia also. Very very strong and makes me cringe when I think of it. Can remember having an argument, in Spanish, with a bunch of Portugese men......oh dear. Also remember Mr Pb falling over outside our villa and banging his cheek on the tiles. That was a great holiday.

A New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, my hubby bought me a bottle tonight as he was going out, very nice it is too (he hates it). Has anyone ever been to Malborough in NZ - somewhere I'd love to go - esp to the vineyards

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 23 Feb 2008, 02:49

Looks like its me who has to resurrect this fine post started by ECM, hic.

G&T, Weston's Perry (delicious), Amaretto, G&T, coffee.

Highly recommend the Weston's Perry - you can buy it in Morrison.

Orange juice, but last night I had champagne, white wine, red wine and brandy. Well, it was Homer's birthday and Matt's birthday, so I had to celebrate, didn't I?

arachnid · Post by **arachnid** » 23 Feb 2008, 16:27

WoW!!!!! That's some mixture!!!!

Do you feel alright today????

And hope Homer and Matt had great birthdays!!!!

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 23 Feb 2008, 18:38

I feel remarkably fine today, which really is quite surprising as I had the whole bottle of champagne to myself

A bracing walk to Luca's this afternoon helped clear any cobwebs.

Homer and son had a good day thanks, though they are a bit competitive about the number of cards/pressies they get. Matt wins every year, of course

Sandra, have you tried Ikea's perry?

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 24 Feb 2008, 21:20

Marya

Not tried Ikea perry.

How was NYC - did you shop till you dropped and did you love it? Give us all the gossip.

SoupDragon · Post by **SoupDragon** » 24 Feb 2008, 21:30

One of the photos was especially for you Sandra! It caused a bit of a stooshie as Homer spotted it on our computer. 'You told me you only bought two things. What's in the third bag?' he says.

Sandra · Post by **Sandra** » 25 Feb 2008, 15:55

I will rush over for a look

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 01 Mar 2008, 00:22

I survived High School Musical and there's a bottle of wine in the kitchen with my name on it........
