    What is your vermouth brand of choice?

    Have a bott. of dry Noilly Prat on standby for the Friday night Gibson. Can't comment on the recipe change, but it suits me well enough.

    bigger sizes in the Uk

    I'm pretty sure the Small/Med/Large etc sizing is different, at least in the UK I'm a small shirt size and a medium in the US. As for large size clothing, I know Marks and Spencer and Debenhams do 'Big and Tall' ranges of men's clothing, but their selections seem to be pretty limited. Did...

    Hair cuts

    I've been going to the same unisex hairdresser for something like eight years now. Its not the closest place to where I live, but the thing that keeps me coming back is definitely the friendly, bonhomous attitude of the staff. I like being recognised and addressed by first name as I walk in...

    Cognac - where to begin?

    Hear, hear! :eusa_clap Personally, I keep a bottle of Courvoisier VS in the cabinet for when the mood takes me. Reasonably satisfying stuff and as LordBest said, not too expensive. Definately a good starting point, and its always worth keeping on the lookout for places that sell minatures...

    DIY: Cufflinks Cheap

    What a wonderful idea Indy! I've always avoided buttonless shirt sleeves like the plague for want of a unique or interesting pair of cufflinks. I'll definately have to try this. :D Sounds interesting, can't wait to see them. :)

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    A Gibson 2oz special dry Tanqueray, a splash of Noilly Prat (I just love their art deco-ish logo) and a silverskin onion sunk in the bottom of the glass. I don't believe in cocktail sticks. :)

    The Shulton Old Spice smell

    Is it just the one knock-off brand or are there a few of them? I'm planning a trip to the states towards the end of the year/start of next so I might as well be on the lookout for them since I certainly doubt I'll be able to pick 'em up online.

    The Shulton Old Spice smell

    I first heard about Old Spice a few years ago and became interested by the fond descriptions of how it reminded people of their grandpa. I planned on buying a bottle to sample but was pretty disappointed to discover, after a bit of reading, that Proctor & Gamble had apparently changed the...
