Short and sweet one

I'll never do a long post on a Monday, as I'm generally doing the admin and catch-up from the previous week, so that's that I'm afraid.

Things to take away from last night's fabulous meal (made fabulous by my table of lovely luvvies, I was quite literally the only person at the table not to have been put on a stage, being the behind-the-scenes (read: puppet master) type, really):

Chlamydia Dell'Arte
Unless we take the......Hardknott Pass
Vespa the air steward
Don't tease the other half after he's had a few

And a recipe for a tasty cocktail, the 1804:
1 part Coffee liqueur
1 part Cognac
Barely-whipped cream (still heavy but with some froth)

Shake with ice, strain into glass (works best in a martini glass as the angle gets both halves of cocktail as you drink). With back of spoon, pour over the cream about 1-2 cm thick so it sits on top like Guinness or a cappuccino. DRINK.*

*Yes, it's girly. And cocktails are wanky. But after a bottle of wine each, these things are less important...
