    A-2 and CCW - is it possible?

    Begging your pardon sir. Please excuse the political overtones. Mr. Paddy, after you justifiably moved this thread I noticed an existing and well used thread in the General Attire & Accouterments section and titled Concealed (Weapon) Fashion (Not that I am suggesting moving this thread...

    A-2 and CCW - is it possible?

    A-2 Clone and CCW My personal experience with using my old Avirex A-2 while carrying anything like a small Glock, a Colt OM or even a J frame S&W, using an IWB holster, is that it's just not a great jacket choice. If, like myself, you are an aging, sort of porky size 44 and 36[+] through the...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Creme Yvette and the Aviation I need to look through more of the receipe books for an Aviation using Creme Yvette. Everything I've looked at so far is more or less like the Savoy book: 2/3 gin, 1/3 lemon juice and 2 dashes of Luxardo (Or maraschino). Mr Rumblefish you must have a different...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Luxardo - Frugal MacDoogals; English 75? Last time I got some was in upper South Carolina at a big shop under the name of Frugal MacDoogals. That has been some time ago. I cannot find any reference to a drink called English 75, including my reprint of the 1930 Savoy. Given that the French...

    Meyer lemons Say, Rumble, what is the story on the Meyer lemons? I can see that those are large but is there more to it than that? I tried a couple to use for twists but the rind was not the greatest. Are you able to find Luxardo for the Aviation?

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Boodles...most excellent If the oppotunity presents itself try a bit of Lillet Blanc instead of vermouth. I do mean a little. With that try a lemon twist which you have worked on like crazy to get off all the pith possible.

    What are you wearing today??

    Thanks Nick D Given that you needed a size 10 (Also UK I assume) to cover a UK size 7-1/2 shoe I'm now sure I'd have no idea what size to buy unless I can find a shop which sells them. This news will save me from making an error on the 'bay. Maybe someone will join in with more details...

    What are you wearing today??

    Nick D - Really Sharp Look. Spats Sizing? Nick D sir, can you share any information with us on how spats are sized? I recall one pair on the 'bay sometime back which was listed as a 5. Do you know how that translates to a shoe size, say in my own case of being a size 10? Thank you.

    Flask Question

    Bourbon in SS flask My experience has been much the same as Mr Tomasso describes below. I often leave bourbon of one brand or the other in stainless flasks with no ill effects. Two of the flasks are those cheesy Soviet era things which were sold for pennies after the Union was dissolved. Years...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Angostura Bitters still available here Because of the discussion about the shortage of Angostura I looked for it in the two of the supermarkets I frequent. One store has a full shelf, maybe a dozen bottles, the other seems a bit lonw with only two or three bottles. Both markets have the bitters...

    Kicking your coffee with hooch

    Indeed I do, but only on the weekends I do enjoy boosting my coffee with some kind of hooch. But which one to choose? Decisions, decisions. Mr. Fletch, I really enjoy adding Kahlua to coffee.

    Apple Spirits

    Calvados in NC or SC I understand. Lets talk again close to the time you go to Columbia. Maybe I can find a dealer for you in NC or SC close to the road you take. I-40 is bombed out. I hope it can be repaired soon.
