Say what?! Mine says 11:52 a.m. At least in your time zone, you have an excuse for being silly as it's past 5 already.

Apart from the fact I live in my own time zone, I need very little, if any, excuse for being silly! Man, I'm on a roll here

Not into knife posts, gun posts, or older guys perving over shop assistant's cleavages. So far only two of the three topics have been banned

Neutral grain spirit and redistilled with stuff like juniper, lemon and bitter orange peel. Some throw in some anise, angelica root, orris root, licorice root, cinnamon, coriander or cassia bark.

You will probably never see the "older guys perving over shop assistant's cleavages" getting the dumpster. I have no idea why not.

Oh yeah, juniper (plus a lot of other stuff). Thanks, Joe!

Sheesh - if I feel like redoing the landscape out front, I can always make gin!

All things I say, that make some sort of sense, come from the back of a bottle or can of beer.

Gin, another fine Dutch invention!

It is a common misconception that the word gin derives from the Swiss city, Geneva. In fact, the word gin derives from the French word for juniper— genévrier— which is the fruit that flavours the drink. Its invention is often credited to the physician Franciscus Sylvius. It was sold in pharmacies and used to treat such medical problems as kidney ailments, lumbago, stomach ailments, gallstones, and gout. It spread to England after the Glorious Revolution put William of Orange on the British throne. Dutch gin, also known as jenever or genever, is a distinctly different drink from English-style gin; it is distilled with barley and sometimes aged in wood, giving it a slight resemblance to whisky. Schiedam, in South Holland, is famous for its jenever. Jenever is produced in a pot still and is typically lower in alcohol and more strongly flavoured than London gin.

I'm even named after the inventor! It is pure medicinal!

Perhaps I'll stick with fruity beers...

It's sad to see any member along with their knowledge leave, but there are other watch forums that allow posts with pics of knives, guns, etc. I have to be careful posting my pics on this forum because, so many include guns and knives from my collection. However, rules are rules so you either follow them or move on

William of Orange...did he have Gin and Juice?

Who the heck was old Orange Willy anyway?

I'm poor at history, is he the guy who used to be the best at conkering with his mates?
