Those "weekend warriors"....always trying to cram too much in when they haven't built up the proper regimen...

So what's the best position you have seen not to strain too much and read faster with your speedos?

Hey, I'd gladly do more, like vacuuming for instance, but I'm taking Dristan hay-fever medication and it says on the bottle not to operate machinery while taking it.

BTW, the speedos don't seem fit so well any more....
(I can't understand why?!? They did 40 years ago!)

Gone are the days of skinny-dipping. These days it's 'chunky-dunking.' I'm going to have to stick with my old cotton sweats.

Is it OK to make that Bombay Sapphire instead? Lot's of ice?

Not Zany Carter Deluxes?

(Stitchawl, if you don't know ZCDs, then that's probably for the best....)

Definitely for the best - ZCPs are much better, as they contain chocolate...

Admittedly, the chocolate adds a variaBLE, an interesting nuance of flavour to an already palatable drink, but it might be better to start on the standard Zany Carter Deluxe, and, if it suits Stitchawl, I can, for safety reasons, dilute it initially with some of that delectable Bombay Sapphire (after a big night, I like to have a nice, big bowl of rice bubbles swimming in Bombay Sapphire - I call it a Snap, Crackle and WILL YOU STOP MAKING SO MUCH NOISE?)

Cheers,
Marc
