This week I’ve mostly been drinking tap water. In the past I’d have had beer every day last week at the in-law’s plus the odd glass of wine plus maybe one or two whiskies. I had one Becks Blue our plus a couple of glasses of Appletise but mostly water

Well done DT! I've been crushing fresh mint from the garden and adding it to my tap water. Highly recommended

Well done DT I know what you mean Doc. I used it a lot in the early days as a strong tasting, non-sweet drink. I've moved on now and don't bother so much. |

I sampled Seedlip and Tonic in a pub, but wasn't convinced it was worth a fiver. Sticking to lime and soda

The price is definitely not right. I got mine at 50% off on delivery from Oacdo. Not any more. |
