TobyCoulson Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I'd start with champagne and and eventually work my way onto red wine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougBaker Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Surely the answer is a huge slab of the little bottles of French beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john aston Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Or stop watching TV.That's for winter time when you can't do more interesting stuff- which comprises just about everything apart from sitting on a sofa watching 2d images . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadership Team Golf Juliet Tango Posted June 13, 2014 Leadership Team Share Posted June 13, 2014 That is rather prescriptive, Delbert. What I choose depends upon two things: - my mood - what is available If you are in for a marathon sofa session, you need choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delbert Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 The accompanying beverage does reflect on the whole event Last weekend at the Barlow Hunt show in Bakewell we went wrong early with G& T . To be honest on the Saturday port would have been more in order , however Sunday definitely was a Blonde Bier day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Allen Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Homemade Pimms. 1 measure Gin. 1 measure Southern Comfort. 1 measure Martini Rosso. Dash of Angustura bitters, top up with lemonade. Ice and fruit if required. Go easy very strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBreadhead Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Caipirhina..... One part cachaza Brazilian white rum. Juice of 1 whole lime poured over crushed ice. Add 1 heaped tea spoon of brown sugar and stir till dissolved. Cut the lime into 4. Stir in the 4 quarters. Play Brazilian bossa nova tunes from the 60s. Serve to eager audience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCol Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Quoting Dave Allen: Homemade Pimms quite agree... haven't had the namby-pamby shop-bought stuff for years (though we use Jane McQuitty's recipe: one measure each of gin and red vermouth plus half a measure of Orange Curaçao; like your idea of using Southern Comfort instead of the Curaçao) Oh... and top-up with dry ginger ale rather than lemonade...
