Black Friday 2019

[Marchbanks]

Whereabouts are you?

People’s Republic of Warwickshire. Are you thinking of coming over? I’ll let the border guards know, then they’ll whisk you through in just a couple of hours or so. Will you be bringing your own trilby?

 

[Marchbanks]

Is that an amp in there?

Seriously chilled eh?

Er, no - it’s a cheese box. Oh, that! No, it’s the control panel, silly! It can’t be an amp, can it - where are the valves?

Berry Brothers & Rudd No.3 gin for £22. That's some of my Xmas shopping done!

That’s a very good price I’ve been paying £28 delivered recently and I’ve seen it as much as £33.

It’s an excellent gin too.

OT (slightly )

Bought this 47%-er but have yet to try it.

I am in the process of making my own gin so am trying quite a few to get a broad idea of taste variations.

making my own gin

you have a still?

Monkey 47 is very complex. I used to use it in the tastings I ran. Personally not brilliant in a G&T since the complexity gets really muddled with tonic. I sometimes use it in a variation of a Negroni, as the gin element, but where I use Chambourd instead of red vermouth.

Afraid so... It was actually through Amazon - the best price I've seen.
Think it must have been a 24hr Black Friday deal... as it's now back up at £36! Current best offer is £28 at Waitrose (plus 5% cashback if done through Quidco).

I was in John Lewis yesterday, they have a 30% off promotion on quite a range of clothing. However, in the Sheffield store I noticed they had potentially misspriced a £195 coat down to just £52.50, it appears the assistant confused the word 'of' with 'off'. They honoured the price.
