It was steps away from where we worked, so after a long day, we'd all take our meager earnings and spend very little to get very drunk. Those were good times. Glad you're having a blissful time.

Enjoy, but stir rather than shake (as you'll bruise the gin). Sighhh, I could talk about martinis forever, but my university office frowns on having alcohol on campus. Back to it.
