Perhaps here we can settle the biscuit debate once and for all here. Everyone in favour of Jaffa Cakes at the secret 77th Brigade meetings in North Yorkshire, say "Aye".

Magic happens when gin combines with dry vermouth. Something cosmic, something alchemical. A whole greater than the sum of its parts.

I'm also not a fan of the "wave the gin bottle in the general direction of Italy" school of thought. That's just an excuse to get drunk on gin while trying to look sophisticated by drinking it from a fancy glass. The vermouth is essential.

Yes, it's hugely disappointing. I am involved in a twar "over there" concerning the issue of whether a so-called vodka 'martini' should be allowed to be called a martini at all, and this would have been an authoritative source.

Olives are definitely riskier than cocktail onions, if not stored properly.

If it contains a cocktail onion, it's a Gibson, not a martini.

Thrilled for them, but a bit of Lucian Freud, Francis Bacon, Louise Bourgeois, Basquiat... wouldn't go amiss.
