Time for some orange juice. Diluted with water of course. These aren't the last days of Rome after all.

A cheeky Silver Bullet.

By that I mean Coors, not the werewolf suppressant.

best IPA in the world

Some Teapigs green tea. Pretty nice, but rather pricey. Glad I didn't pay for it. I think some of the best green tea is the stuff that Chinese supermarkets sell for about £1.50 for a big box.

I bought a bottle of Kahlua yesterday, so will finally get round to making some espresso martinis tomorrow night.

Very nice, present from a secret admirer.

Teapigs is one of those amazing companies, that can actually convince people a teabag should cost 25p

Wot no White Russians, the Dude commands.

Does anyone know of a decent bar in Central London which serves good cocktails in the day? I'm not looking for anywhere so fancy that I have to dress up, but neither am I looking for a Wetherspoons.

they also have an excellent open mike comedy night, but other wise reasonably priced, professional cocktails in a very manly atmosphere.

just over the road from Euston and 10 doors away from probably the best authentic Mexican restaurant in London

I like Christopher's Grill in Covent Garden:

The Martini Bar is really fun and serves a wide range of cocktails for about £10 each.

Plus you can book and get food as well if you wish.

Thanks, Jennie and Soots!

I went to the Dean Street Townhouse today for a cocktail and had a Prince Edward. Lovely, refined bar and the barman even gave me a glass of water when I sat down because he said it was hot outside. Anyway, I had a Prince Edward which is some whiskey and liqueur concoction. Strong, but very nice.

£10 for a drink?

You can get a pint of Banks' and ten minutes up against a skip for that in Wolverhampton!

Shush! Ben is obviously wealthy from his writing.

Oh, right.
