Plum brandy. Not entirely traditional, but it works.

Cheers! Appropriately given your travels, I have a French Rose (gin, cherry brandy, Lillet Blanc). Between seeing Operation Mincemeat and husband’s last speech therapy appointment, it’s been quite a good week. #ConfinedCocktails

Sorry for your loss.

Aargh indeed.

You’d think the curse of Alzheimer’s would at least have the decency to free her from worrying about such things, and yet…

And does Income Tax taste nice? It does do lots of good I suppose. Cheers anyway, I have a Normandie 75 (replaced gin and champagne with calvados and sparkling cider), from my new cocktail book. #ConfinedCocktails

Also, some nice singing.

Glad you’ve managed to tick off another stage. Buy the wine.

I haven’t! Looks fun.

As others have already said, just AAAARGH! Sending waves of sympathy and fortitude.

Must remember this one next time I have sherry in.

Cheers and hope you make it home without further incident… I have an Ernest & Rita, delicious if perhaps not seasonally appropriate! #ConfinedCocktails

You have friends in your phone! Not always the same, but we’re here…

I understand why they have to be, but it is ironic how fussy they are about transfusions.
