Marc, the splash of club soda is to cut the sweetness of the ginger ale. You would substitute the 7-Up for the ginger ale, not the club soda.
I see ............. but I like 7 Up and ginger ale, not club soda.

Hey Dr G and friends!
Taking a quick break at work and getting thirsty from all this "liquid" talk going on here.
My favourite drink so far in this wonderful summer we are having here in the GTA area is vodka and lemonade. Is there a name for that?
Well, here in The Shang, at The Hair of the Doxie Den, we call our vodka, lemonade and Tom Collins mix drink a Vodka Collins. We do use NL iceberg vodka.

The daughter gave us some mandarin orange-flavoured Absolut for Mother's Day, and (at my request) some 'straight' (non-flavoured) Absolut for Father's Day.
I'm not one to 'know' vodkas, but this stuff was too good to add to any mix -- we enjoyed each in "shooter-type" glasses (acquired in Mexico) -- straight, with just the "smallest" hint of sprite or something similar added.
But that was when our weather was moist and cool, and the drinks enjoyed for their warming!!!!

Sounds reasonable, John.

Afternoon/evening everyone. I have to head to the kitchen to prepare our dinner "du jour" soon, and sign off, so I'm trying to stall a little!! It's that time of day, and I'm not complaining, just find it comes a little too quickly some days!! :-)
An epsiode of 'Monarch of the Glen', 'As Time goes By', and 'Barney Miller' scheduled for our viewing after dinner.

Happy evening everyone!!
Gota love Barney Miller and all the gang, John.
I have been out back stargazing. It is a clear night, with little wind and 21C temps at 10PM. What an amazing summer we have experienced here in St. John's, truly the best in all my 35 years here.

Guess it is time to call it a night. I am off early to get a new muffler on my 8 year old Echo, so I may or may not be online early in the morning. Hopefully, someone will make coffee. We shall see. Paix, mes amis.

Hmmm, my 11-year-old 2001 Suzuki 4 x 4 has never had anything replaced, just oil and filters. No mufflers, no brakes, no tune-up, no light bulbs, no nothing. It even has the original battery, still working fine after 11 plus years.

Same here, Don, but you don't have the salt on the roads like we do. The warrenty just expired, so Toyota agreed to pay 80% and me just 20%. So, all in all, that's not bad and it's a great car with only 44,000 km in just over 8 years.
