So I've joined...

... thefridayfive and we'll see how well this works.

It was something shapinglight asked that made me realise I only ever post in photo_scavenger these days. Then I saw kazzy_cee's mention of thefridayfive, so I am going to give it a go.

The Friday Five for January 20, 2017

1. How do you like your coffee?
I drink my coffee white (or, more accurately, dark brown) with milk (never with cream) and one sugar. Except at work, where without a fridge milk doesn't keep, so I've become accustomed to drinking it black with no sugar.

2. How do you like your tea?
Strongish, with a small amount of milk, about as dark as my coffee and with no sugar.

3. What's your favourite late night beverage?
Even after all these years of reading fanfic written by Americans, I still do a double take when presented with the word 'beverage' *g* It makes me think of hot bovril for some reason. But to answer the question about favourite (evening and late night) drinks...
Week nights - various fruit juices diluted with soda water, so I can drink a number of them from a tall glass. (It's all about the volume.)
Weekends - G&T.

4. If you could only drink one thing for the next week, what would it be?
That's a difficult one because I have a serious caffeine addiction and would hate not having my early morning coffee. But you can't drink coffee all day, so I guess it would have be the week-night answer to question 3 (and feel sorry for anybody who comes into contact with me during my withdrawal).

5. If you were on vacation (again, a word I don't use, so - holiday), what would be the first thing you'd drink to celebrate?
And again a reference to question 3 (I am a creature of habit) - gin and tonic.

Nothing wrong with a good gin and tonic. :D

And I forgot to say, welcome! I hope you have a good time with the Friday Five.

I like the idea of this comm!

I don't think I could survive without coffee. No, let me restate that: I don't think my husband would survive me with no coffee :D

It's been too long since I had a gin and tonic. Maybe I'll remedy that this weekend.

Lovely to see you pop up on my flist this morning my dear. I can picture you very well in all these manifestations, although my go to image is you with orange and tonic as we chat on skype.

Look forward to chatting in the morning.And I'll look forward to future posts from you on this comm.

LOL @ "I still do a double take when presented with the word 'beverage'" Me too! It's an odd word isn't it - so formal.

I really do like coffee, but some days I completely forget and don't drink any. I don't drink much during the summer either. When Mr Cee is home I drink a lot more because he drinks far more than I do and he makes it ;)

I admire your stance on gin :-)
