Re: Izaak Walton
Excellent!
After a *hitty day a super excuse for yet another G & T with a slice of lime and ice. And when I finish I'll have another. Might even have to take 'er indoors to the Lands End at the weekend so I don't have to drive back. Can't let such an historic birthday go uncelebrated.
