Pimms & lemonade......

[senor_robusto]

hey all,
i remember that recently there was a discussion about how well pimms goes with cigars (i'm pretty sure deano was involved in this)!!! anyhoo, i picked up a 700cl bottle in tescos for ?12!!! had it with tescos own lemonade (according to the label, it's made with 'real sicilian lemons'), 2 wedges of orange and a few leaves of mint........ oh, and of course, ice!!!

folks, i think i've just found my drink for the summer!!! lol!!

all the best,

alex

Yep I've definitely said it goes together well, love the stuff! As said, berries, cucumber, lime, lemon, mint, perfect.

[senor_robusto]

lol........ but remember, it must be white cotton sport socks and brown leather moses sandals!!! i done this as a joke with my missus last year, we were staying with her folks, who live near the sea on the antrim coast!!! she was already over at the beach with our son...... and i appeared over with the socks and sandals, string vest and 'safari' shorts (pulled, or 'hoiked' right up past my belly button!!! god you should've saw her face!!! if that wasn't bad enough, i was also wearing a harp lager bassball cap with a built in radio (going full blast) and can holder (i borrowed off her dad) loaded up with a can off steiger lager or something equally as bad!!! she walked off when i started calling her 'mum'............

oh the joy!!!!

.........BTW, it's a well known fact round where i live that only sex offenders wear white sport socks and white trainers!!! beware of the colour of your socks ol' boy....... them paired up with open toed brown leather sandals could get you in a whole lot of trouble!!! lol.....
