1. Silly question...
Of course.

New bottle of Bombay Saphire to christen which made it all the more pleasant. :9

2. I'm on my fourth Bombay Sapphire gin and tonic right now!
Ha! Go figure, as much as I tout this drink around here...it's been one of those days, plus, it REALLY helps to beat the heat ( very refreshing ).

3. A four gin day?
Given your time-zone, that's either very good or very bad.

4. It's VERY hot here today, and I did some house-work, so I'm a tad
exhausted from it all....this drink manages to cool me off, though. And I'm beginning to think that Bombay is my favorite gin. It is extremely smoothe. A twist of lime does do wonders, though....

5. I just knew you were a man of exquisite taste.
I keep Bombay Saphire, Tanquary, and Plymouth in most of the time - switching depending on my mood.

6. You mentioned this Plymouth brand in a previous thread....is it
something I could purchase here in the States? Because there are other brands I would like to try ( like Boodles, which I hear is quite good ). But if you recommend it, I'm sure it would be heavenly!

12. I found some here in Virginia, on the strength of his recommendation.
The man knows whereof he speaks. In fact, tjwmason is quite authoritative. Perhaps I mean he's an authority. Stopping talking about it now . . .

It's very smooth, Plymouth is.

7. I was drinking some tequila
Patron silver, but I had to stop because I'll need to drive my son's girlfriend home later.

8. I am drinking a mai-tai, but....
I do have a bottle of Tanqueray in the booze cabinet. It is for my brother-in-law, who is a martini drinker. Not a newfangled martini drinker...but one of years standing. On the rocks, very little Boissiere vermouth and a twist of lemon.

11. Sounds good to me. Think I'll go get one and try to forget
the world blowing itself up in the ME, no thanks to Bushie and friends.
