Had a few cocktails on a cruise 2 years back and been talking about them since. The wife just made me one as i sit sunbathing on my self-built pallet decking.

Sat in Sefton park today, sun on my face. Plenty of dogs around me.

Lovely.

A big mug of Harney & Sons 'Paris' tea, with honey and a splash of Ghirardelli chocolate sauce and oat milk.

What did you have? I'm big into cocktails these days (trying to cut down on beer).

A Ginger Cooler. Very nice and refreshing in the heat.

Nice. I was part way through a delicious bottle of Port this evening but Mrs B took it away. Probably for the best but it won't prevent me going looking for it when this glass is empty.

The best way to get into cocktails is to just ask the bar staff for whatever they recommend.

Had a cou9le of beers tonight, as we have a weather day tomorrow. Seems I'm a bit loose on my spending

Purchased Andy Bell's new album on vinyl (Andy Bell, from Ride)

I've been listening to it on Spotify. Great album (imo) but can't beat Ride's 'Going Blank Again' album. Absolutely class album

Had "a moment" and got ripped on these the last time we were in Colorado (Gunnison, to be exact). They really hit the spot hence, like you, why I took a photo of the ingredients. Frou-frou name but superb slammer, which I demonstrated at the time.

The smoked cherry old fashioned above sounds interesting.

That's what I was originally going to try but the other half ordered before me so I had a sip of hers and never looked back...plus mixing never ends up well.
