I’m drinking Johnnie Walker Black Label right now. Before I knew it, even in the Orient, it became easy to drink. And I listen to New Age leisurely. It’s time to relax for the last time today.

I haven’t opened yet, changed my mind as it’s been hot so I had a beer instead.
@Rugby - I’ve no idea what a “dark & stormy” is, that said, I drink Rum straight :tumbler_glass:

I’ve developed a taste for dark rum and tonic, provided the tonic is high-quality itself.

with lime, of course.

I’m fortunate that Mrs Pixelpopper is from Trinidad so I was introduced to various Rums at an early stage in our relationship (Mrs. PP is near tea total) & the Angostura distillery remains a favourite …

I have found Fever Tree mixer products to be superior, especially their tonic water and ginger beer.

With my own guitar playing. Obviously the bourbon is better than the music.

Going to Depeche Mode tonight. I don’t really like stadium concerts but I’ll make an exception for DM and it’s supposed to be for the masses.

First time visit as I don’t drink but…
Mrs.Rimmer thought I might like this…
Not made up my mind yet…I will let you know once I see the bottom of the glass.

It’s actually Guinness Cold Brewed Coffee at 4.5% alcohol content.
