    Yes, you really can tell the difference and it's all about personal preference. Best way to test it is neat or with a little tonic, then work out what you might add - normally lemon or lime, sometimes orange or apple or cucumber or cloves etc.

    It doesn't come with tonic, but we always have a good supply of Fever Tree in the fridge.

    It makes a change from having Gordons for breakfast.

    Have been good and not opened today's door. I'm not a betting man, but if I was, I'd say it's going to contain gin.
    Do you drink one each morning, or, do you have an interesting Friday

    Two pieces of chocolate. One for yesterday's window (I was out of the office), one for today's. On Tuesday, when I'm next it, I expect to have four pieces.

    Gin.


    Same as yesterday, same as tomorrow. It's all gin, just different makers.

    An angel, or possibly a bell. The quality of moulding on this £1 advent calendar leaves a lot to be desired.

    Poor lass will need more than that after picking up all those kleenex and washing the curtains.

    I think it was a campfire. Mine is lego star wars. Looking forward to the Christmas RD-D2 and C3PO minifigs.

    Lovely daughter bought me a Thorntons one. Yesterday was a bauble thing I think. Today was a Christmas pud. Nice chocolate.
