Martini

This evening before dinner Graham and moi decided to have a Martini, it is more years than I care to remember when I last had one! The other week when Graham was south he brought back a bottle of gin and a bottle of vermouth with a martini in mind. As we don't possess the requisite shaker a jug along with two glasses and the gin was placed in the freezer! Graham looked on the internet to see how to make them, I got the olives ready, following the instructions into the glasses went the mixed liquid!
One sip and I felt my mouth was on fire, Graham thought not enough gin, poured more into the glass made it worse. Ended up with a good measure of tonic in each and rather merry to say the least.
Enjoyed the vegetable risotto and salad for dinner.
Mixed weather day went down to the beach Ruaridh enjoyed his walk and the skimming stones, met three dogs with their owner, the wee fellow chased one and the poor guy ended up going back to his motor home where the dog was hiding.
Had lunch, spoke to mum who appears to be OK. Spoke with Layla, Bella can now say Joe and Layla:)
Put up a somewhat makeshift fence around the bed where the leeks are to go must finish it tomorrow.
Spent the evening knitting, off to bed now to pinch one of Graham's library books. Goodnight.
