    That's why I didn't volunteer to be a Mentor. I mean, wearing a Toga, all of my loose change would fall out. Not to mention there are no pockets to secrete my bottles in.

      Yesterday I made up a 2 Litre batch of coffee to use for a refreshing drink during the current heat-wave. This evening after dinner, I made myself a large one and was sitting on the couch, sipping away, when I thought to myself, self, I thought, what this needs is a slug of Rum. Unfortunately I didn't have any, in fact I didn't have any liquor at all. I generally don't keep alcoholic drinks at home except for Christmas-time. Christmas!! Ah yes, in the back of the kitchen cupboard the remnants of a 1 pint bottle of Brandy I had used to make my Christmas cake last year. 1 slug later and all is well. Magic. :-D

      Maybe McDonald's will offer that soon; their current offering leaves much to be desired.

          Sounds nice, but it would mean buying the Mint Liqueur and I'm not sure that I could stand the loss of man points involved in that transaction. :laugh:

            I disagree - the coffee keeps you awake while you get roaring drunk. What could possibly be more manly than that?

              Coffee with anything other than hot water is just plain wrong, like scotch with anything or blondes with brains - it just doesn't work!

                We were given sugar sandwiches too. But if you think that's bad, my sister used to like vinegar sarnies! X| That was too much, even for a dustbin guts like me.

                  I'm with __Maxx__ on this one. The hot version however does have some problems. It is known on restaurant menus and the like as <shhhh>FRENCH</shhhh> Coffee.

                            Weeell, it's like this. To start with I had forgotten that I had the Brandy, so I was resigned to plain old cawfee. What's even worse is there is only enough of the good stuff left for one more. :((

                                          A lady doesn't tell her age. Suffice to say I look about 20 years younger that I actually am. And since I don't look anything under 40.....
