Sorry to digress Supercabby, but when I see a post if yours somehow I always think of Lance.    :)
No problem with that, he was a great friend & sorely missed. I saw his wife last month, she is doing ok, misses Lance terribly but that's to be expected of course. I went up to Catalarik cemetery & paid my respects...

Bacardi and coke, only to be drunk when in a hot country, with lots of ice!!. Never touch it at home?

Funny you should post that ec- I really didn't like Bacardi & coke at all. Then we went to Dominican Republic and went on a jeep safari excursion and handed them out - it was sensational! But like you, back home I don't much like it as before   :)

Bacardi n coke started in Spain or the Canaries, like you Echogirl I never drank it at home though, in fact not for long anywhere! Too sweet. (Also coke just like coffee, stops me sleeping).

   Raki.  First time I drank it was a Stag night in Hisaronu, but wasn't told to mix it with ice and water.!!!

   Fantastic night. Drank Raki all night.                           The missus put me to bed.!!!       Blotto.         :)

Limoncello always reminds me of Sorrento too.  I was given some free in an restaurant to taste when we were there and I was hooked. I loved it and it is really nice on ice cream too.  I took a bottle home, but it never tasted the same in Scotland.

Rough Cider  - cloudy at first but gradually clearing. The Cider Bar, Newton Abbot, Devon.

(About four miles from my home - approximately a 2 hour walk back including an encounter with a badger).
