This isn't just a thousand to one shot. This is a professional blood sport. It can happen to you. And it can happen again.

I may use the WobbleBike to commute ;D

(But I don't know if it'll be the true wobblebike, the Frankenwobblefixie bike, the windwobblecheetah, Bromwobblepton, Daweswobbleaudax, or some other item I find in the wobblegarage)

Say vodka over it three times and it becomes a very dry martini. :thumbsup:

I didn't see this thread last night, but for those moments when the tonic is finished, may I recommend a White Lady? Gin, Cointreau (or any other triple-sec) and fresh lemon juice in equal parts, shaken over ice, and served in a glass with a sugared rim is the recipe I use, but YMMV.

It's a bit of a faff, but jolly nice, and the guaranteed way to a short night!

No tonic?

Just put the Gin in the freezer and drink like Schnapps.  Magic!
